Ekivalan OM5 Duplex Patch Cable SC/SC Lime Green 50m COZOM5DCDC2SL0500A

Data centre technicians and network engineers rely on this Ekivalan OM5 duplex patch cable for high-speed backbone links and fibre-to-the-desk runs. The 50-metre lime green cable connects SC-terminated equipment such as switches, patch panels and media converters, and supports 10G, 40G and 100G Ethernet over multimode fibre.

Why choose it

OM5 fibre is optimised for short-wavelength division multiplexing, enabling multiple wavelengths in the 850–953 nm range. This cable meets TIA/EIA-568.3-D and ISO/IEC 11801, and its LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire.

Ideal use cases

• Data centre interconnects between switches and patch panels
• High-speed backbone links in enterprise networks
• Fibre Channel storage area networks

Good to know

The duplex construction keeps transmit and receive fibres together for easy polarity management. Lime green colour coding identifies OM5 per industry convention.
