ACT 30 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and ST connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex LC ST 30m RL7530 is a 30-metre multimode fiber patch cable designed for indoor network connections. Constructed with 50/125 OM2 multimode fiber and terminated with an LC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other in duplex configuration, this cable supports high-speed data transmission and full-duplex communication. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket reduces toxic and corrosive emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces such as data centres, server rooms and office cabling routes.

Advantages

The cable combines multimode OM2 core dimensions with a duplex LC–ST termination to provide reliable short- to medium-distance connectivity. The LSZH jacket lowers the risk of hazardous fumes in confined indoor environments. Standardised connector types ensure compatibility with a wide range of network equipment and transceivers. Its 30 m length offers extended reach for linking racks, switches, patch panels and floor boxes without additional splicing.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, patch panels and optical transceivers within data centres
• Office backbone cabling and horizontal runs between communication rooms
• Server room connections where LSZH materials are required for safety
• Temporary or permanent installations requiring duplex multimode links

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 μm (OM2)
• Connector configuration: Duplex with LC connector on one end and ST on the other
• Length: 30 metres
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Transmission: Full-duplex multimode optical link
• Typical use: Indoor networking and structured cabling

How to use

Identify the LC and ST ends and verify they match the ports on your equipment. Ensure both connector endfaces are clean before insertion to prevent signal loss; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable along cable trays or within conduit to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. Plug the LC connector into an LC duplex receptacle and the ST connector into the ST-style socket or adapter. After installation, test the link with appropriate optical test equipment to confirm signal integrity and insertion loss within acceptable limits.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in dry indoor environments away from sources of excessive heat. Avoid kinking or crushing the cable and keep bend radii gentle to preserve optical performance. When higher bandwidth or longer reach is required, consider singlemode or a higher-grade multimode (OM3/OM4) solution. For critical runs, perform end-to-end testing and label both ends to simplify maintenance.
