Fiber Optic Cable StarTech.com A50FBLCLC1

The StarTech.com A50FBLCLC1 is a 1m LC/UPC to LC/UPC OM3 multimode fiber patch cable with a 50/125 µm core/cladding and an aqua LSZH jacket. It is laser-optimized for 850 nm operation and designed for high-speed data transmission over 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel and up to 100G links, suitable for connections between SANs, servers, switches and other high-end networking equipment.

Advantages

This LC-LC OM3 multimode cable offers low insertion loss, consistent optical performance and individual testing to meet acceptable insertion loss limits. The LSZH (Low-Smoke, Zero-Halogen) flame-retardant jacket reduces smoke, toxicity and corrosive gas release in the event of fire, making the cable appropriate for data centers, central offices, industrial sites, schools and installations where building codes require low-halogen cabling. The duplex design and 50/125 µm fiber ensure compatibility with standard multimode transceivers and hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting SANs and data servers
• Patch runs between backbone switches, hubs and routers
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel networks
• High-density networking equipment in data centers and server rooms

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or damage before installation. Align each LC connector with the corresponding LC port on the networking devices and insert until it clicks. Route the duplex cable to avoid sharp bends (maintain minimum bend radius), crushing or exposure to sources of heat. For best performance, use compatible multimode transceivers and verify link integrity after installation using appropriate optical test equipment or network diagnostics.

Usage recommendations

Use in indoor installations where LSZH cabling is required by local codes; avoid long-term exposure to direct sunlight or outdoor environments unless placed within suitable conduit or protective pathways.
