Fiber Cable ProXtend LC-SC UPC OM3 Duplex 3M

The ProXtend LC-SC UPC OM3 Duplex 3M fiber cable is a 3‑metre multimode patch cable designed for high-speed, long-distance network links. It features a 50 µm glass core and LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket, supporting full duplex transmission with LC and SC male connectors. The cable is rated for operation in temperatures from -20 °C to 70 °C and is suitable for structured cabling, data centres, and enterprise networks requiring reliable fibre connections.

Advantages

This OM3 multimode fibre cable provides high bandwidth and low attenuation for short- to medium-distance links. The LC and SC UPC connectors ensure stable physical contact and low insertion loss, while the LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke in case of fire and meets safety requirements for indoor installations. Full duplex support enables simultaneous two-way data flow for modern networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects and patch panels
• Enterprise LAN backbones and server connections
• Fiber optic patching between switches, routers and transceivers
• High-speed multimedia and storage networks (SAN)

How to use

Prepare equipment by verifying compatible LC and SC ports on switches, transceivers or patch panels. Align the LC connector with the LC port and the SC connector with the SC port, then insert gently until secure. Avoid bending the fibre beyond its minimum bend radius and keep connector end faces clean to prevent signal loss. For removal, release any latches and pull straight to avoid stressing the cable.

Recommendations

Store and route the cable in cable trays or conduits to prevent sharp bends. Clean connector end faces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before installation. Use OM3-compatible transceivers to achieve expected bandwidth and distance performance.
