Ekivalan OM5 Duplex Patch Cable LC/ST, 50/125 µm, Lime Green, 5 m COZOM5LCST2SL0050A

This Ekivalan OM5 duplex patch cable stands out with its lime green LSZH jacket, making it easy to identify in high-density fibre installations. It is built for short-reach, high-speed multimode links where SWDM4 technology is used, supporting 40GbE and 100GbE over a single pair of fibres.

Highlights

• OM5 laser-optimised multimode fibre, 50/125 µm core/cladding
• LC duplex to ST duplex connectors with zirconia ceramic ferrules
• 5.0 m length, lime green LSZH jacket
• Effective modal bandwidth: 4700 MHz·km @ 850 nm, 2470 MHz·km @ 953 nm
• Insertion loss ≤ 0.3 dB per connector pair, return loss ≥ 30 dB

In daily use

The cable is terminated with LC duplex on one end and ST duplex on the other, with A-B straight-through polarity. It suits installations where legacy ST ports need to connect to modern LC-based equipment. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making it appropriate for enclosed spaces.
