ACT 50 meter Multimode 50/125 OM3 duplex ruggedized fiber cable with LC connectors

The ACT 50 meter Multimode 50/125 OM3 duplex ruggedized fiber cable provides reliable high-speed data transmission with 2x LC connectors on each end. With a 50 µm core diameter and OM3 specification, the cable supports full duplex communication for networking environments that require consistent performance and durability. Each cable is supplied with individual test reports for insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL), and all end-faces are 100% inspected to ensure connection quality.

Advantages

Laser-precision cleaving and Grade A multimode fiber contribute to low signal loss and consistent optical performance. UPC polish on the connectors improves return loss characteristics. The ruggedized duplex construction and standardized LC connectors make the cable suitable for rack-to-equipment and short-range backbone links while maintaining ease of installation and handling.

Suitable for

• Data center patching and short-range backbone connections
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links requiring duplex OM3 fiber
• High-speed multimode network segments (10G and compatible links)

How to use

Connect each LC connector to the corresponding LC ports on network equipment, ensuring correct orientation for duplex links. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension to preserve fiber integrity; observe minimum bend radius as specified by the equipment or fiber standard. Use the included test reports during installation verification to confirm insertion loss and return loss meet your network requirements.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment to protect polished end-faces. Before mating connectors, verify end-face cleanliness and inspect for contamination or damage. Use appropriate fiber cleaning tools and follow standard optical fiber handling procedures to maintain performance and longevity.
