InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC 50/125µm OM5 25m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC 50/125µm OM5 25m is a multimode fiber patch cable designed for full-duplex data transmission in modern network environments. It features LC connectors on both ends and a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure with OM5 grading, enabling efficient high-speed links over short to medium distances. The 25 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack, cabinet-to-cabinet and equipment-to-equipment connections in data centers, server rooms and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This duplex LC/LC cable supports multimode OM5 performance characteristics, offering improved modal bandwidth and compatibility with shortwave wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) technologies. The 50 µm core size ensures straightforward termination and connectorization with LC interfaces commonly used in networking equipment. The pre-assembled cable reduces installation time compared with field-terminated fibers and provides consistent optical performance for reliable connectivity.

Suitable for

• Data center patching between switches, transceivers and patch panels
• Server room connections and equipment interlinks
• High-density network racks with LC connector requirements
• Shortwave WDM and multimode optical links within campus networks

How to use

Route the fiber cable along the planned path avoiding sharp bends and excessive pulling force. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC port on networking devices or patch panels until a tactile click confirms secure engagement. Observe proper polarity for duplex links to ensure transmit and receive pairs are correctly aligned. If necessary, secure the cable with appropriate bend protection and cable management to preserve optical performance and prevent connector strain.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fiber cable in a clean environment; avoid contaminating connector endfaces and use a fiber inspection tool or cleaning kit when connecting to active equipment. Maintain minimum bend radius as specified by typical multimode fiber guidelines and avoid tensile loads beyond recommended limits to preserve link integrity and minimize insertion loss.
