Fibre optic cable Lightwin LDP-50 LC-SC 10.0 OM4 10 m

The Lightwin LDP-50 LC-SC 10.0 OM4 10 m fibre optic cable is a 10-metre multimode cable with a 50 µm core diameter designed for duplex connections using LC and SC terminations. Optimised for high-bandwidth applications, the OM4 grade multimode glass supports increased bandwidth and reduced modal dispersion compared with lower-grade multimode types. The cable provides reliable optical connectivity for short to medium reach links in networking environments where consistent throughput and low loss are required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable combines a 50 µm core multimode OM4 fibre with LC and SC connectors to enable straightforward integration with SFP+, transceiver modules, patch panels and networking equipment that accept LC and SC terminations. The duplex configuration ensures simultaneous transmit and receive channels for full-duplex operation. The OM4 specification supports higher data rates and longer distances than OM1–OM3 in typical enterprise and data centre deployments. The cable construction focuses on low insertion loss and repeatable connector performance to maintain signal integrity.

Suitable for

• High-bandwidth data centre trunking and server connections
• Enterprise LAN fibre patching and backbone links
• Connecting transceivers and patch panels using LC and SC interfaces
• Short- to medium-reach multimode links such as equipment rooms and campus networks

Key specifications

• Length: 10.0 m
• Fibre type: Multimode OM4
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector A: LC (duplex)
• Connector B: SC (duplex)
• Mode: Duplex full-duplex optical link
• Typical application: Short- to medium-distance high-speed networks

How to use

Route the cable between the two network endpoints avoiding tight bends and mechanical stress on the connectors. Insert the LC and SC connectors into the corresponding ports until they click into place, ensuring correct orientation for transmit and receive paths. Verify connector cleanliness before installation by inspecting or cleaning endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools to minimise insertion loss. After connection, confirm link status and optical power levels using network diagnostics or an optical power meter as required.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable according to standard multimode fibre practices: avoid bending beyond the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius, protect connector endfaces with dust caps when not in use, and use proper strain relief in patch panels or rack installations. Choose OM4 multimode cabling where higher bandwidth and extended multimode reach are needed for 10 Gbit/s and higher short-reach applications.
