METZ CONNECT 151J1EOAO50E Duplex SC/ST OM3 Multimode Fiber Patch Cable 5m Aqua LSZH

For high-speed fiber optic links where reliability and low loss are critical, this METZ CONNECT duplex patch cable pairs SC and ST connectors with OM3 multimode fiber. Unlike generic jumpers, it is built to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it a future-ready choice for backbone and horizontal cabling.

Highlights

• Duplex SC to ST connectors for versatile equipment compatibility
• OM3 laser-optimized multimode fiber (50/125 µm core/cladding)
• 5-meter length with aqua LSZH jacket for easy identification and safety
• Low insertion loss ≤ 0.3 dB and high return loss ≥ 30 dB
• Supports 10GbE up to 300 m and 40/100GbE up to 100 m

In daily use

The cable's LSZH jacket emits low smoke and zero halogen in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces. The aqua color follows industry standards for OM3, simplifying port mapping. Duplex construction with two fibers ensures full-duplex communication, and the robust connectors withstand repeated mating cycles.
