Fibre optic cable Lightwin LDP-62 ST-ST 2.0 2 m Orange

The Lightwin LDP-62 ST-ST 2.0 2 m Orange is a 2‑metre multimode fibre optic patch cable with ST connectors on both ends and a 62.5 µm core diameter (OM1). Designed for short-range links, the cable supports full duplex communication and is intended for reliable data signal transmission in networking environments. Its orange jacket provides easy identification for multimode lines and its 2.0 mm diameter offers a balance between flexibility and mechanical protection.

Advantages

This fibre cable provides stable optical performance for short-distance multimode connections and enables full duplex data transfer between compatible devices. The ST connectors use a bayonet coupling for quick insertion and removal, while the 62.5 µm core is compatible with existing OM1 infrastructure. The compact 2.0 mm jacket and bright orange color simplify cable management in racks and patch panels without compromising basic mechanical durability.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode links in data centers and wiring closets
• Patch panel to switch or switch to media converter connections
• Legacy OM1 network segments and educational or laboratory setups
• Office networking where clear multimode cable identification is required

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Multimode (OM1)
• Core diameter: 62.5 µm
• Connector type: ST to ST (both ends)
• Cable length: 2.0 metres
• Jacket colour: Orange
• Cable diameter: 2.0 mm
• Mode: Full duplex

How to use

Inspect connectors and fibre ends for dust or damage before installation. Align each ST connector with the device or patch panel receptacle and insert with the bayonet action until it locks. Ensure full duplex orientation by connecting transmit and receive ports correctly at both ends. Avoid tight bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius during routing. If running through cable trays, secure the cable without excessive tension and avoid sharp edges that could abrade the jacket.

Usage recommendations

For best optical performance, clean connectors before mating and use dust caps when cables are not connected. Use this OM1 62.5 µm cable for short-distance multimode links; for longer runs or higher bandwidth requirements, consider multimode OM3/OM4 or singlemode alternatives. Store and route the cable to avoid microbending and maintain a safe bend radius to preserve signal integrity.
