Optický duplexný patch kábel LC/SC 50/125µ OM5 S/CONN maximum connectivity 1,0 m

The ShiverPeaks LWL-Duplex Patchkabel LC/SC 50/125µ OM5 S/CONN maximum connectivity 1.0m is a duplex multimode fiber patch cable designed for high-density network environments. It uses OM5 graded multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter to support wideband multimode transmission and multiple-wavelength operation. The cable terminates in an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other, offering compatibility with a variety of active equipment and patch panels while providing a compact LC interface for space-efficient rack installations.

Advantages

This patch cable provides multimode wideband support for improved wavelength-division multiplexing and higher aggregate bandwidth over conventional OM3/OM4 fibers. Its duplex configuration enables full-duplex data links and simple polarity management. The combination of LC and SC connectors ensures interoperability with common transceivers and infrastructure. The cable construction is engineered for consistent insertion loss and return loss, supporting reliable signal transmission in data centers and enterprise networks.

Suitable for

• Network racks and patch panels in data centres
• Interconnection between multimode transceivers and switches
• High-density server cabinet installations where space saving is required
• Short-reach multimode links using multiple wavelengths

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM5 multimode, wideband multimode fiber
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Configuration: Duplex (two-fiber)
• Connector types: LC (one end) and SC (other end)
• Cable length: 1.0 m
• Typical application range: short-reach multimode connections in data centre and enterprise networks

How to use

Connect the LC-terminated end to the corresponding LC port on the transceiver or patch panel and the SC-terminated end to the SC port on the receiving device or panel. Ensure clean connector endfaces before mating to minimise insertion loss and back-reflection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer's recommended minimum bend radius. Verify link polarity and perform optical loss testing as part of installation validation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, inspect and clean connectors with approved fiber cleaning tools before each connection. Use this OM5 duplex patch cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth multimode links and avoid using it in applications that require single-mode fiber. Preserve bend radius and secure the cable in cable management systems to prevent microbending and excess attenuation.
