Optical patch cable duplex LC-LC 50/125 MM 1m OM3 LSZH

The optical patch cable duplex LC-LC 50/125 MM 1m OM3 LSZH is a high-quality fiber optic jumper cable designed for reliable data transmission in network installations. Terminated on both sides with precision LC-LC connectors, this multimode optical cable facilitates seamless connections between active network elements and optical paths within distribution boxes. Built to OM3 standards with a 50/125 micrometer fiber core, it supports high-bandwidth applications efficiently. The construction features a durable turquoise Low Smoke Zero Halogen sheath with a 3mm diameter, ensuring reduced toxic and corrosive gas emissions in the event of fire. The duplex design incorporates a detachable clip, allowing the cable to be easily separated into two individual simplex connections if required.

Advantages

This optical patch cable offers excellent signal transmission reliability for high-speed local area networks and data center environments. The inclusion of an LSZH outer sheath enhances safety compliance by minimizing smoke and halogens during combustion, making it suitable for indoor installations where safety standards are stringent. The detachable duplex clip provides installation flexibility by enabling conversion between duplex and simplex configurations. Furthermore, the robust construction with a 3mm diameter ensures durability while maintaining flexibility for neat cable management inside distribution enclosures.

Suitable for

• Connecting active network devices inside distribution boxes
• Linking optical paths within telecommunication cabinets
• High-speed multimode fiber optic local area networks
• Data center structured cabling systems

When it may not be suitable

This product is not designed for single-mode fiber optic networks and will not be compatible with single-mode transceivers. Additionally, the 1-meter length limits its use strictly to short-distance connections within the same rack or adjacent distribution enclosures, making it unsuitable for long-run cable routing between rooms or buildings.

Key specifications

• Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber type
• LC-LC connector interface
• UPC connector grinding
• Duplex cable design with detachable clip
• 1 meter length
• 3 mm cable diameter
• Turquoise sheath color
• LSZH outer sheath material
• Operating and storage temperature range from -40 to +70 degrees Celsius

How to use

To use the optical patch cable, first remove any protective dust caps from the LC connectors. Inspect the fiber end faces for cleanliness before insertion. Align the connector key with the adapter slot on your network device or distribution panel and push gently until a click is heard, indicating a secure connection. Ensure the cable is routed neatly within the distribution box, maintaining a safe bend radius to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. When utilizing the duplex configuration, ensure the clip holds both connectors securely, or remove the clip carefully if individual simplex connections are required.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network equipment uses LC connector interfaces
• Confirm that your system requires a multimode OM3 50/125 fiber specification
• Measure the distance between devices to ensure the 1-meter length is sufficient
• Check local building and safety regulations regarding the use of LSZH sheathed cables

Usage recommendations

Always inspect and clean optical connectors before insertion to maintain optimal signal performance. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius during cable routing to prevent internal fiber stress and signal attenuation. Store unused patch cables with protective dust caps in a clean environment within the specified temperature range.
