Fiber Optic Patch Cord Digitus OM3 SC/SC 5m

The Digitus Fiber Optic Multimode Patch Cord OM3 SC/SC, 5 m, is a duplex multimode cable with a 50/125 µm core suitable for high-speed data transmission in network and telecom environments. Supplied with SC to SC connectors, this OM3 patch cord is designed to provide low insertion loss and stable optical performance for structured cabling and data centre links.

Advantages

OM3 multimode fibre with a 50 µm core diameter enables higher bandwidth over short to medium distances compared with lower-grade multimode fibres. SC/SC duplex connectors provide a secure push-pull mating interface that is widely used in networking equipment. The 5 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or patch panel to equipment connections while keeping signal attenuation minimal.

Suitable for

• Data centre uplinks and horizontal cabling
• Telecommunications racks and patch panels
• High-speed multimode network links (short to medium range)
• Structured cabling installations requiring SC connectors

How to use

Ensure connectors and ports are clean before making connections. Align the SC connectors with the device or patch panel ports and insert until they click into place. Use loop management or cable ties to secure the cable path and avoid tight bends with radii smaller than recommended for multimode fibre. For removal, depress the SC latch and pull straight out to avoid stressing the ferrule.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean fiber endfaces with appropriate cleaning tools before installation. Follow your organisation's cabling standards and observe minimum bend radius and connector handling procedures to maintain optical performance and ensure reliable links.
