ACT 1 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable duplex with SC connectors

The ACT Fiber patch cable duplex SC connectors 1 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 is a pre-terminated duplex fiber optic cable designed for reliable short-distance data links. With SC connectors on both ends and OM3 multimode fiber, the cable supports high-speed transmission and low insertion loss for installations in data centers, server rooms and enterprise networks. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire, making the cable suitable for indoor routing where safety regulations require low-halogen materials.

Advantages

This duplex SC fiber patch cable provides consistent optical performance with OM3 50/125 multimode fiber and standardized SC terminations for easy mating with common patch panels and transceivers. The 1 meter length offers a compact connection between adjacent equipment, minimizing slack and signal attenuation. The LSZH outer jacket reduces the release of harmful gases and smoke, meeting safer indoor installation requirements. The cable's construction maintains low insertion loss and return loss, ensuring stable links for short-range high-bandwidth applications.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between network switches and patch panels in data centers
• Connections in server rooms and telecommunications racks
• High-speed multimode links for enterprise LAN backbones
• Short-range optical links in equipment cabinets and distribution frames

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM3)
• Connector type: Duplex SC on both ends
• Length: 1 meter
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Polish/type: Standard multimode end-face polish for SC connectors
• Application range: Short-range, high-bandwidth multimode links

How to use

Route the 1 meter duplex SC fiber cable between corresponding SC ports on patch panels, switches or transceivers, ensuring connectors are clean and free from dust before mating. Align the SC duplex connectors with the adapter and push until they click into place; avoid excessive bending—maintain bend radius recommended for 50/125 multimode fiber to prevent increased attenuation. For removal, depress the SC latch and pull straight out. Use appropriate fiber cleaning tools and inspection equipment to verify connector end-face condition and optical continuity before putting the link into service.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in dry indoor environments; avoid exposure to direct sunlight and chemicals. Follow local fire and building codes for LSZH cabling routes. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform regular visual inspections and cleaning to maintain optimal performance.
