Fibre optic cable Ubiquiti UACC-OFC-MM-3M 3m LC/LC OM3

The Ubiquiti UACC-OFC-MM-3M 3m LC/LC OM3 fibre optic cable is a pre-terminated multimode link designed for short-range, high-bandwidth interconnects. With OM3 multimode fibre and LC connectors on both ends, this 3‑metre cable supports full-duplex data transmission and is suitable for use in rack-to-rack, switch-to-switch, or equipment-to-equipment connections inside data centres and network cabinets. The 50 µm core diameter of the fibre ensures compatibility with common multimode transceivers and maintains low attenuation for reliable signal integrity over the cable length.

Advantages

This OM3 LC/LC fibre cable provides consistent multimode performance for 10 Gbps and higher short-reach links while minimising signal loss and crosstalk. The factory-terminated LC connectors deliver a stable, low-reflection connection and simplify installation compared with field-terminated fibre. A 3-metre length allows flexible routing inside racks and cabinets without excess slack, and the standard multimode geometry ensures interoperability with typical network optics used in enterprise and data centre environments.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, patch panels and optical transceivers in data centres
• Interconnects inside server racks and telecommunications cabinets
• Short-range multimode links for 10G/40G systems and enterprise networks
• Upgrading fibre runs where OM3 multimode compatibility is required

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC, duplex
• Cable length: 3 metres
• Duplex communication: yes

How to use

Connect one LC connector to the transmitting port of your transceiver or switch module and the other LC connector to the receiving port of the corresponding device to establish a full-duplex optical link. Ensure connectors and adapter ports are clean before mating to minimise insertion loss and potential signal degradation. Route the cable through cable management trays or along rack verticals to avoid sharp bends; respect the minimum bend radius specified by multimode fibre standards when installing.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the jacket and avoid pulling directly on connectors. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform visual inspection or an optical cleaning procedure if connectors appear contaminated. For optimal performance, match the cable to compatible OM3-rated transceivers and maintain appropriate bend radius and strain relief during installation.
