ACT 10 meter LSZH Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 fiber patch cable duplex with MTRJ and LC connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex 10m LSZH Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 with MTRJ to LC connectors is a duplex multimode fiber link designed for short-range network connections. At 10 meters length it connects network devices such as switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers, telecom rooms and office environments. The cable jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH), reducing smoke and toxic gas emissions in the event of fire and making it suitable for installations in enclosed or public spaces where safety standards demand minimal hazardous emissions.

Advantages

This multimode 62.5/125 OM1 cable supports reliable high-speed data transmission over short distances and offers consistent optical performance for legacy multimode systems. The duplex construction provides simultaneous send and receive channels in a single assembly, while the combination of MTRJ and LC connectors permits compatibility with equipment using either connector type. The LSZH jacket improves installation safety and reduces the risk to personnel and equipment during a fire incident. The 10 meter length balances reach and signal integrity for rack-to-rack or room-to-room connections.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode links in data centers and server rooms
• Interconnection between switches, media converters and patch panels
• Office and classroom network cabling where LSZH materials are required
• Connections to devices with MTRJ and LC ports

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 62.5/125 µm (OM1)
• Length: 10 meters
• Configuration: Duplex
• Connectors: MTRJ (one end) to LC (other end)
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Typical use: Short-distance multimode optical links

How to use

Route the cable between the two network endpoints avoiding tight bends and compression. Insert the LC connector into the LC receptacle and the MTRJ connector into the MTRJ port until the connectors latch securely. Ensure proper cable management in racks or trays to prevent strain on the connectors; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fiber during installation. Clean connector endfaces before mating to avoid signal loss from dust or debris. After connection, verify optical link health with appropriate testing equipment or by checking link LEDs on connected devices.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this 62.5/125 OM1 multimode cable for short-distance links and legacy multimode equipment. Keep connector endfaces clean, avoid sharp bends, and follow site safety rules for LSZH cabling. Where higher bandwidth or longer distances are required, consider upgrading to multimode OM3/OM4 or singlemode fiber if compatible with your devices.
