Ekivalan OM2 Duplex Fibre Patch Cable SC/ST, 50/125 µm, LSZH, Orange, 3 m COZ050DCST2SO0030A

Connect legacy ST equipment to modern SC patch panels in data centres and campus networks with this Ekivalan OM2 duplex fibre patch cable. The 3-metre orange LSZH cable links 50/125 µm multimode fibre between SC and ST connectors, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet links.

Why choose it

The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces. Duplex construction ensures full-duplex communication, and the orange colour follows industry standards for OM2 fibre identification.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting legacy ST-based equipment to SC patch panels
• Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (short distances)
• Fibre Channel links in storage area networks
• Data centre and ODF (Optical Distribution Frame) cabling

Good to know

OM2 fibre supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 82 metres at 850 nm, making it a cost-effective choice for short-reach high-speed links. The SC connector features a push-pull design, while ST uses a bayonet twist-lock for secure connections.
