ACT 25 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors

The ACT 25 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable with duplex LC connectors is a pre-terminated multimode fiber assembly designed for high-speed short- to medium-distance links in structured cabling environments. With OM3 grade 50/125 µm fiber and duplex LC terminations, the cable supports full-duplex transmission for network devices in data centers, server rooms and office racks. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gas emissions in case of fire, meeting safety requirements for enclosed spaces.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable provides high bandwidth and low attenuation typical of OM3 multimode fiber, enabling reliable transmission of Ethernet, Fibre Channel and other optical protocols. Duplex LC connectors offer a compact footprint and secure connection in high-density panels. The 25 meter length allows flexible routing between racks or between equipment within larger rooms, while the LSZH outer jacket improves safety for installations in populated or poorly ventilated areas.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, servers and storage within data centers and server rooms
• Patch panels and high-density fiber enclosures
• Office backbone links and equipment interconnects
• Short- to medium-distance multimode optical links supporting 10G and 40G (where supported by transceivers)

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM3)
• Connector type: Duplex LC on both ends
• Length: 25 meters
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Mode: Full duplex
• Typical use: Indoor structured cabling and patching

How to use

Route the cable along designated cable trays or inside conduit and avoid sharp bends; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fiber. Clean connector endfaces before insertion using appropriate fiber cleaning tools to ensure low loss and reliable performance. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding port until the latch engages; verify link status on connected devices and test the optical path with suitable test equipment if precise loss measurements are required. Avoid tension on the cable during installation and secure excess length with cable ties or Velcro straps that do not compress the cable jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM3 multimode cable with compatible multimode transceivers and maintain proper connector cleaning and handling. Install in compliance with local fire and building codes for LSZH-rated materials and consider labeling both ends for easier maintenance and identification in dense patch environments.
