Network Cable Logilink FP5LC20 LC LC OM5 20m Green

The Logilink FP5LC20 LC LC OM5 20m Green network cable is a 20-metre multimode fiber optic cable with LC connectors on both ends, designed for indoor networking environments. Constructed from OM5-rated fiber, it supports high-bandwidth data transmission and is suitable for modern data center and enterprise cabling where consistent performance across multiple wavelengths is required. The cable jacket is made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material to reduce toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, and the vivid green color provides clear visual identification within structured cabling systems.

Advantages

The OM5 multimode fiber core enables optimized short- to medium-distance high-speed communications and improved wavelength division performance. LC connectors on both ends offer compact, reliable connections compatible with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels. The LSZH jacket enhances safety for indoor installations, particularly in enclosed spaces or areas with strict fire-safety requirements. The 20 m length covers typical patching and horizontal cabling runs while the green color assists with cable management and rapid troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Data center patching between switches, servers, and transceivers
• Enterprise backbone and horizontal cabling in office environments
• Telecommunications rooms and optical distribution frames
• High-density racks and structured cabling installations

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC connector on both ends (LC–LC duplex)
• Length: 20 metres
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) for reduced smoke and toxicity
• Colour: Green for easy identification and cable management
• Application: Indoor use, patching, and structured cabling

How to use

Before installation, verify compatibility of the LC connectors with your transceivers or patch panel ports and ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-plugging procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Gently insert each LC connector into the corresponding duplex receptacle until it clicks, taking care not to bend the fiber beyond recommended bend radius. Route the cable along cable trays or within cable management channels to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress. When disconnecting, depress the latch on the LC connector and pull straight out to prevent damage to the ferrule.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in its original packaging until use to prevent contamination of connector endfaces. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating. Maintain bend radii in accordance with manufacturer guidelines and avoid excessive tension during installation. Use colour-coded documentation to reflect the green OM5 cable in your network diagrams for easier maintenance.
