METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable LC-D/LC-D OM5, 1.0 m

The METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable LC-D/LC-D OM5 is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for demanding data center and enterprise network applications. With OM5 wideband multimode fiber, it supports multiple wavelengths for high-speed transmission up to 40 Gbps and beyond.

Advantages

OM5 fiber provides higher bandwidth over longer distances compared to OM3/OM4, supporting SWDM and BiDi technologies. The LSZH jacket ensures safety in plenum areas, and the lime green color allows easy identification.

Suitable for

• Data centers requiring high-density cabling
• Enterprise networks with 40/100 Gbps Ethernet
• Fiber-to-the-desk applications
• Storage area networks (SAN)
