ACT 25 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors

The ACT 25 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors provides a reliable multimode optical link for medium-distance indoor networks. Constructed from OM2 50/125 multimode fiber, the cable supports high-speed data transmission between network devices with low insertion loss. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gas emission in case of fire, making it suitable for installations where fire safety and low-smoke behaviour are required. The 25 m length allows flexible placement of equipment in data centres, server rooms or office environments while the duplex LC pair ensures correct transmit/receive alignment for duplex communication.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable combines OM2 multimode performance with duplex LC terminations to deliver stable connectivity and straightforward installation. The LSZH outer jacket enhances safety in enclosed spaces by limiting smoke and halogen emissions. Duplex configuration eliminates the need for separate transmit and receive cables, and the standardized 50/125 core/cladding format ensures compatibility with multimode transceivers and passive components. The 25 m length provides a balance between reach and manageability for structured cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, servers and storage in data centres and server rooms
• Horizontal and backbone multimode links within office buildings
• Patch panels and fiber distribution frames
• Laboratory and test bench fiber connections for multimode equipment

How to use

Route the cable along designated trays or cable management channels to minimise bend radius and mechanical stress. Connect the LC duplex connectors to the corresponding LC ports on transceivers, patch panels or active equipment, matching transmit/receive orientation for proper duplex communication. Avoid sharp bends and kinks; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for 50/125 multimode fiber. When installed in shared or public spaces, secure the cable to prevent accidental disconnection and keep connectors covered when not in use to avoid contamination.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, clean connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating, follow the installation guidelines for bend radius and support, and verify link performance with a multimode-compatible tester after installation. Use this cable in indoor environments where LSZH properties are required for enhanced safety.
