Fibre optic patch cable Lindy 2m LC–LC OM2 50/125, 2 m, LC to LC, 50 µm core, duplex

Lindy 2 m LC–LC OM2 50/125 fibre optic patch cable provides a multimode full‑duplex link with LC connectors on both ends and a 50 µm core diameter. It is built to OM2 multimode specifications for short‑range data transmission and is suitable for connecting patch panels, network switches and storage area networks where reliable LC–LC multimode links are required. Ceramic ferrules in the connectors reduce insertion loss and maintain consistent optical performance across standard multimode equipment.

Advantages

This LC–LC OM2 cable offers a standardized multimode core and jacket construction for predictable short‑reach performance. The LC connectors with ceramic ferrules deliver low signal loss and consistent mating characteristics. Duplex configuration supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels for bidirectional network links. The cable's multimode OM2 specification makes it appropriate for legacy and current multimode transceivers and equipment in local and campus networks.

Suitable for

• Short‑range multimode network links between switches and patch panels
• Connections to SANs and storage systems requiring duplex fibre
• Fiber optic patching in telecom cabinets and data center racks
• Multimode transceiver connections in enterprise and campus networks

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC, duplex
• Fibre type: Multimode OM2
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Cladding diameter: 125 µm
• Length: 2 m
• Connector ferrule material: ceramic
• Transmission mode: full‑duplex

How to use

Route the cable between the two LC ports to be connected, taking care to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension that can degrade optical performance. Remove protective dust caps from LC connectors before insertion and verify correct orientation for duplex pairs. Insert LC connectors into compatible ports on patch panels, switches or transceivers until they click into place. Test the link with appropriate optical test equipment or network diagnostics to confirm acceptable loss and signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable following standard fibre‑optic best practices: keep dust caps in place when not in use, maintain bend radius above the manufacturer’s minimum, and perform end‑face inspection to prevent contamination. Use OM2 multimode transceivers and compliant equipment for expected short‑reach performance and replace damaged connectors to preserve link quality.
