Fibre optic cable LOGON AL5LCSC005I/5I OM5 0.5 m LC to SC full duplex light green

LOGON AL5LCSC005I/5I OM5 0.5 m LC to SC full duplex light green is a multimode fibre patch cable designed for short interconnects in data centres and network equipment. The cable uses WideBand OM5 bend-insensitive multimode fibre with a 50 µm core diameter and supports full duplex transmission via an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other. It is intended for high-speed data links and InfiniBand environments where compact, colour-coded OM5 cabling is required.

Advantages

The OM5 fibre provides laser-optimized performance across a wider wavelength range (850–950 nm) than traditional OM4, enabling short wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) applications. The bend-insensitive construction reduces macro- and micro-bend losses and allows installation in tight routing paths and compact cable managers. The 0.5 m length is suitable for direct equipment-to-equipment connections and cabinet patching where a short, full-duplex multimode link is needed.

Suitable for

• Short equipment interconnects in data centres and server rooms
• InfiniBand and high-speed Ethernet short links
• Patching between network switches, transceivers and fibre panels
• Applications that require OM5 multimode fibre for SWDM and future multi-wavelength upgrades

Key specifications

• Fibre type: WideBand OM5 multimode, bend-insensitive
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector A: LC (male)
• Connector B: SC (male)
• Transmission: Full duplex multimode
• Colour: Light green (OM5 standard)
• Optimized wavelength range: 850–950 nm
• Low macro-bend sensitivity and improved micro-bend resistance

How to use

Connect the LC end to the corresponding LC port on your transceiver or device and the SC end to the SC port on the other device or patch panel, ensuring proper alignment and secure latching. Use the full-duplex pair as intended for bidirectional multimode links. Route the cable respecting minimum bend radii for installed fibre; avoid sharp bends, excessive pulling force, and contact with sharp edges. For best performance, keep connectors clean using appropriate fibre cleaning tools and verify link integrity with a compatible test tool or transceiver diagnostics.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m OM5 LC–SC patch cable for short, direct connections between equipment in racks and cabinets. Maintain connector cleanliness, follow recommended bend radii, and pair with OM5-capable transceivers for SWDM or future multi-wavelength deployments.
