Equip LC/LC Fiber Optic Patch Cable, OM4, 3m

The Equip LC/LC Fiber Optic Patch Cable OM4 3m is a duplex multimode patch cord with a 50 µm core diameter designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and network environments. Manufactured by EQUIP, this LC-to-LC cable offers a compact connector design and OM4 performance for increased bandwidth and reliable signal integrity over short to medium distances.

Advantages

This fiber optic patch cable features low insertion loss and good return loss thanks to quality endface geometry and precision connectors. The LC/LC configuration supports full-duplex connections in dense patching environments, while the OM4 multimode fiber provides improved modal bandwidth compared with lower-grade multimode cables. The 3 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack and equipment interconnects without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, servers and patch panels in data centers
• High-density network racks and optical distribution frames
• Short- to medium-reach multimode links (OM4)

How to use

Route the LC/LC patch cable between the two devices to be connected and insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC socket until it clicks. Ensure proper polarity for duplex links (transmit to receive). Avoid excessive bending and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors. If necessary, label both ends to simplify identification in dense cabling installations.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep connector endfaces clean and inspect with an appropriate fiber inspection tool before mating. Follow data centre cable management practices to maintain bend radius and minimize stress on the OM4 fiber.
