ACT 2 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and ST connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex LC ST 2m is a 2-meter multimode fiber patch cable designed for indoor networking installations. It uses 50/125 µm OM2 multimode fiber and terminates in a duplex LC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other, providing full-duplex data transmission for short-range networks. The cable jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH), which reduces toxic and corrosive gas emission in the event of fire and meets safety requirements for enclosed spaces.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable offers reliable multimode performance with OM2 50/125 construction, supporting typical short-distance data links in enterprise, server room, and campus environments. The duplex LC and ST terminations provide compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels while allowing full-duplex communication. The LSZH jacket improves safety for indoor deployments and helps meet building and data-center regulations concerning smoke and halogen emissions.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode connections in data centers and server rooms
• Patch panel to switch or transceiver connections requiring LC to ST conversion
• Campus and enterprise floor distribution where OM2 performance is sufficient
• Indoor installations where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM2)
• Length: 2 meters
• Connector configuration: Duplex LC to ST
• Transmission: Full-duplex fiber link
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Typical use: Short-distance multimode network links

How to use

Install the ACT fiber patch cable by connecting the LC duplex end to the LC-compatible port on a transceiver, switch, or patch panel, and insert the ST connector into the corresponding ST adapter or device port. Ensure connector cleanliness prior to mating to prevent signal loss; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools when required. Route the cable along existing cable trays or management systems, avoiding tight bends and excessive pulling forces to preserve the fiber core integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep end-face connectors clean and inspect them before each installation. Maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fiber and avoid mechanical stress on connectors. Choose OM2 50/125 multimode cabling for short-distance links; consider higher-grade multimode types or single-mode fiber for longer runs or higher-bandwidth requirements.
