FO Jumper Cable ROLINE 50/125µm OM3 LC/LC 0.5m

The ROLINE FO Jumper Cable 50/125µm OM3 LC/LC 0.5m is a duplex multimode fiber patch cable with LC connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed data transmission in fiber optic networks. With a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure and OM3 specification, the cable supports very high bandwidths while keeping insertion loss low thanks to its low-loss connector assembly and quality materials from ROLINE.

Advantages

The OM3 fiber and precision LC/LC connectors provide low insertion loss and improved return loss compared with standard connectors, enabling more reliable signal integrity at greater data rates. Assembled with ROLINE-quality materials and low-loss connectors, the jumper achieves typical attenuation values significantly better than standard LC connectors (typical 0.15 dB versus 0.5 dB for standard LC). The cable is color-coded turquoise for easy identification in installations.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects and server-to-switch connections
• High-speed LAN and SAN links using multimode OM3 fiber
• Patch panels and optical distribution frames requiring LC/LC duplex jumpers

How to use

Connect each LC connector into the matching LC socket on your devices or patch panel, observing correct polarity for duplex transmission. Ensure connectors and ports are clean before mating to minimize insertion loss and reflections. Route the 0.5 m jumper without sharp bends and secure it to avoid strain on the connectors during operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before installation, verify polarity and continuity with suitable test equipment, and avoid tight bends (respect bend radius) to maintain low attenuation and reliable signal transmission.
