Fibre optic cable LOGON AL5LCSC20I/5I OM5 20 m LC–SC 50 µm duplex light green

LOGON AL5LCSC20I/5I OM5 20 m LC–SC 50 µm duplex light green is a 20-metre multimode fibre optic patch cable with an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other. The cable uses 50 µm WideBand OM5 bend-insensitive multimode fibre, optimized for multi-wavelength short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) and high-speed data links in server rooms, data centres and enterprise networks. The light green jacket provides standard OM5 colour coding to simplify identification and organisation of cabling infrastructure.

Advantages

The cable provides OM4-equivalent bandwidth across an extended wavelength window (850–950 nm), enabling duplex transmission for modern 40/100/400 Gb/s multiwavelength systems while remaining compatible with existing multimode deployments. Bend-insensitive construction and a tight-buffer design improve resistance to macro- and micro-bending, allowing installation in compact cable management and small bend-radius pathways. The LC–SC connector combination supports flexible interconnection between equipment with LC and SC ports.

Suitable for

• High-speed links in data centres and server rooms
• Enterprise network backbones and horizontal cabling
• Applications using SWDM multi-wavelength transceivers (40/100/400 Gb/s)
• Patch panels and equipment requiring LC to SC connections
• Environments needing colour-coded OM5 identification

• Length: 20 m
• Connector ends: LC (one end) to SC (other end)
• Transmission: Duplex multimode
• Optimized wavelength range: 850–950 nm (SWDM support)
• Jacket colour: Light green (OM5 standard)
• Construction: Tight-buffered, dual-layer UV-curable acrylate coating
• Low macro- and micro-bend sensitivity for compact routing

How to use

Route the 20 m LC–SC patch cable between the LC port on one device and the SC port on the other, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation for duplex links. Avoid sharp bends and secure the cable in cable management trays or organizers to maintain the recommended bend radius. Clean connector endfaces before mating using appropriate fibre cleaning tools and inspect with a fibre inspection scope if available. When connecting to patch panels, follow the panel labelling and maintain consistent colour coding for OM5 links.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use the cable with SWDM-capable transceivers and within compliant multimode systems. Maintain bend radii recommended by industry practice, keep connectors dust-free, and store excess cable loops without twisting. Use the light green jacket to separate OM5 links from other fibre categories in racks and trays.
