Network Cable LYNX LX-DPX-LC/LC-OM3-15 LC/LC OM3 15m

The LYNX duplex patch cable MM OM3 LC/LC 15m is a multimode fiber cable designed for high-speed data transmission in network environments. Featuring LC to LC connectors and a 50/125µm fiber core diameter, this 15-metre cable supports short- to medium-range links where OM3 multimode performance is required. The cable's duplex construction provides two parallel fibers for simultaneous send and receive channels, suitable for backbone, distribution and horizontal cabling in premises networks.

Advantages

This LC/LC OM3 patch cable delivers consistent optical performance with a standardized 50/125µm multimode core, offering low insertion loss and stable connections. The duplex configuration simplifies link installation by providing matched transmit and receive fibers. At 15 metres length the cable offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or room-to-room connections while remaining manageable for cable routing and patch panels. The robust jacket and connector construction ensure repeatable terminations and durability in typical office and data center environments.

Suitable for

• Data center circuit connections between switches and transceivers
• Server room patch panel to active equipment links
• Campus and building horizontal and backbone multimode links
• Short to mid-range multimode fiber connections requiring OM3 performance

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode (OM3)
• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Length: 15 m
• Mode: Duplex (two fibers)

How to use

Identify the transmit (TX) and receive (RX) channels on the devices and align the LC connectors accordingly; duplex cables typically have one fiber keyed or marked to indicate polarity. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding adapter or transceiver port until it clicks. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive tensile stress; maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. For installations into patch panels, secure the cable with appropriate management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Inspect connector endfaces before connection and clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Use the cable within indoor environments unless specifically rated otherwise, and avoid exposure to chemicals, extreme heat or mechanical damage. For reliable OM3 performance, pair the cable with compatible multimode transceivers and follow manufacturer guidelines for link budgets and distance limitations.
