LogiLink OM3 LC/SC Duplex Multimode Fiber Patch Cable, 10m, Aqua, LSZH

High-speed data centers and enterprise networks demand reliable fiber optic connections that can handle 10 Gigabit Ethernet without signal degradation. This LogiLink OM3 duplex patch cable delivers exactly that, with a 10-meter length that bridges equipment across racks or between adjacent rooms. The aqua jacket and LSZH material make it both easy to identify and safe for indoor use, while the LC and SC duplex connectors ensure compatibility with a wide range of switches, transceivers, and patch panels.

Who is it for

Network administrators, data center technicians, and IT professionals who need a dependable multimode fiber link for 10GbE, Fibre Channel, or InfiniBand applications. It’s also suitable for structured cabling installers who require a pre-terminated, ready-to-use patch cord that meets OM3 standards.

Main features

• OM3 multimode fiber with 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter, optimized for 850 nm VCSEL sources
• Duplex LC to SC connectors, both with UPC polish for low insertion loss
• 10-meter length, ideal for patching between distribution areas or connecting devices in adjacent cabinets
• Aqua LSZH jacket: low smoke, zero halogen, and flame-retardant for safe indoor deployment
• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters, plus legacy 1 GbE and faster 40/100 GbE over shorter distances

Tips

For best performance, ensure both ends are connected to OM3-compatible equipment and avoid tight bends (minimum bend radius typically 30 mm). Use with aqua-coloured patch panels or cassettes to maintain colour coding consistency. When cleaning connectors, use a one-click cleaner designed for 1.25 mm LC and 2.5 mm SC ferrules to prevent contamination and signal loss.
