How to use

Carefully unpack the fiber optic cable and inspect the connectors for any protective caps or debris. Remove the dust caps from the LC and ST connectors and from the corresponding ports on your networking equipment. Align the connectors properly with the ports and push them gently until they click or lock securely into place. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius and ensure it is not subjected to excessive tension or sharp physical impacts during routing.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking hardware utilizes LC and ST connector interfaces
• Check that an OM3 50/125µm multimode specification matches your existing network requirements
• Confirm that the 3-metre length is sufficient to span the distance between connected devices without excessive slack

Usage recommendations: Handle the fiber optic connectors with clean hands and keep dust caps attached until the moment of installation to prevent signal degradation. Route the cable carefully away from heavy foot traffic areas and sharp edges to maintain optimal long-term durability.
