ACT 7 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM3 fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex LC 7m is a 7 meter multimode fiber cable designed for reliable high-speed data links. It uses 50/125 µm OM3 multimode fiber and duplex LC connectors to provide stable full-duplex transmission for network equipment in data centers, server rooms, and office networks. The cable jacket is made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material to reduce toxic fumes and dense smoke in the event of fire, improving safety in enclosed or populated installations.

Advantages

This multimode OM3 cable supports high bandwidth applications and is optimized for short- to medium-range connections commonly used in LAN and data center environments. Duplex LC connectors offer compact, reliable mating with transceivers and patch panels while minimizing space in high-density setups. The LSZH jacket enhances safety compliance in public and commercial buildings where reduced smoke and halogen-free materials are required. The 7 meter length provides flexibility for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel routing without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, servers and storage within data centers
• Patch panel to equipment connections in wiring closets and telecom rooms
• Short- to medium-distance multimode links in enterprise LANs
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling such as public buildings

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM3)
• Connector type: Duplex LC on both ends
• Length: 7 meters
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Mode: Multimode, optimized for 10G and short-reach multimode applications
• Polish/termination: Factory-terminated, pre-polished connectors for consistent insertion loss

How to use

Route the 7 meter duplex LC patch cable between compatible LC ports on transceivers, switches, patch panels or network devices. Ensure both ends are clean before mating to prevent increased attenuation; use a fiber cleaning tool or lint-free wipe with appropriate cleaning fluid. Plug each LC connector into the corresponding LC duplex adapter or module until it clicks into place, and secure cable routing to avoid tight bends below the fiber's minimum bend radius. Label the cable ends if required for easier identification in patching setups.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean connectors before installation, avoid tight bends and kinks, and use proper cable management to maintain performance. For critical links, test insertion loss and return loss after installation to verify compliance with network requirements.
