ACT 3 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and ST connectors

The ACT OM3 Fiber Patch Cable 3m Duplex with LC and ST connectors is a multimode 50/125 µm patch cord designed for high-speed full-duplex data transmission. The cable uses OM3-grade multimode fiber with UPC polish on the connector end-faces and an LSZH jacket for reduced smoke and zero halogen emissions, suitable for indoor installations and data center environments. Each cable is supplied with an individual test report covering insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL), and connector end-faces are 100% inspected.

Advantages

Laser-precision cleaving and Grade A-M fiber ensure consistent optical performance. UPC polish on connector end-faces provides low back-reflection for reliable signal integrity. The LSZH outer jacket reduces hazardous emissions in confined spaces, and the included test report for IL and RL provides traceable quality verification for each cable.

Suitable for

• Data center trunking and server-to-switch connections
• Enterprise LAN backbone and horizontal cabling
• High-speed multimode networking (10GbE and compatible systems)

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM3 multimode, 50/125 µm
• Length: 3 m
• Connector configuration: Duplex (2x LC to 2x ST)
• Polish type: UPC
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Quality control: Individual IL and RL test report; 100% end-face inspection

How to use

Verify compatibility of LC and ST ports on your equipment before connecting. Handle connectors by the boot or connector body, avoid touching end-faces, and keep protective dust caps on until installation. Align and insert the LC and ST connectors into their corresponding ports until they click or secure; ensure cable routing avoids sharp bends (maintain minimum bend radius) and does not experience tension or crushing. After installation, keep the supplied test report for reference and, if necessary, perform network verification tests to confirm link performance.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in clean conditions, use appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating connectors, and follow manufacturer guidelines for bend radius and strain relief to maintain optical performance and prolong service life.
