InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable SC/SC 50/125µm OM5 7.5m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable SC/SC 50/125µm OM5 7.5m is a duplex multimode fiber patch cable with SC connectors on both ends and a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure. Designed for full duplex fiber links, the OM5 grade fiber supports short- to medium-reach data transmission across multiple wavelengths, enabling flexible deployment in modern data centers, enterprise networks and AV installations. The 7.5 meter length provides room for routing between racks, panels and equipment while maintaining signal integrity for high-speed applications.

Advantages

This OM5 multimode duplex cable delivers consistent optical performance across a range of wavelengths and is suitable for wavelength-division multiplexing and short-reach multi-wavelength links. SC push-pull connectors provide secure mating and easy handling during installation and maintenance. The 50/125 µm fiber geometry balances modal bandwidth and connector compatibility with standard multimode transceivers commonly used in networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center patching between switches, servers and transceivers
• Enterprise LAN fiber backbone and horizontal cabling
• Audio/video signal distribution and AV-over-fiber applications
• Short- to medium-reach multimode links using multi-wavelength systems

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM5 multimode
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: SC to SC duplex
• Length: 7.5 m
• Mode: Duplex (two fibers for full duplex communication)
• Typical applications: Multimode wavelength-supporting links, patching and short-reach data transmission

How to use

Route the cable avoiding tight bends and sharp edges to prevent increased attenuation; follow the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fiber. Insert the SC connectors into the corresponding SC adapter or transceiver ports until the connector latches. Use proper fiber patch panel management to secure excess length and reduce stress on the connectors. For best link performance, ensure cleanliness of connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before connection and verify link parameters with suitable optical test equipment when commissioning.

Recommendations

Store and handle the OM5 fiber cable in a clean, dry environment and avoid pulling on the fiber itself — use the cable jacket for handling. Clean connectors before each mating, observe bend radius limits, and document connections to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
