ACT 1 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and SC connectors

The ACT 1 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 duplex LC SC fiber patch cable provides a compact, safe connection between network devices. Designed for short-reach multimode links, the cable combines LC and SC duplex connectors to accommodate equipment with differing port types. The 1 m length is suitable for rack-to-rack, patch panel to switch, or patch panel to transceiver connections where space is limited. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire, making the cable appropriate for indoor installations in offices, data centers, and public buildings.

Advantages

The multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber core supports reliable high-speed data transmission over short distances, with low insertion loss and consistent optical performance. Duplex LC and SC connectors provide flexible interoperability with a variety of network devices and fiber panels. The LSZH outer jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces by limiting smoke and halogen release. The 1 meter length minimizes excess slack and clutter, improving cable management in dense installations.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, patch panels and transceivers in data centers
• Short-reach fiber links in office and telecom rooms
• Connections where LC and SC duplex interfaces must be bridged
• Indoor installations requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM2)
• Connector ends: duplex LC to duplex SC
• Length: 1 meter
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Cable configuration: duplex (two fibers)
• Typical application: short-reach multimode optical links

How to use

Verify device ports to ensure compatibility with LC and SC duplex connectors before installation. Route the cable along existing cable management pathways, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges to prevent microbending loss; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Insert each connector until it clicks (for LC) or seats securely (for SC) into the corresponding transceiver, patch panel, or adapter. When removing the cable, release any retention clips and pull straight from the connector body to avoid stressing the fiber.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fiber patch cable in a clean environment, keeping end faces protected with dust caps when not connected. Use appropriate cleaning tools to clean connector end faces prior to mating. For installations near heat sources or in outdoor environments, select cables and routing practices rated for those conditions; this LSZH multimode cable is intended for indoor use and for short-distance links.
