METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable LC-Duplex to LC-Duplex OM3 6.0 m Aqua

The METZ CONNECT OpDAT patch cable is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding network environments. With LC-Duplex connectors on both ends and OM3 multimode fiber, this cable supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, making it ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunications applications.

Advantages

This patch cable offers low insertion loss (≤ 0.3 dB) and high return loss (≥ 30 dB), ensuring excellent signal integrity. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket provides enhanced safety in case of fire, reducing toxic smoke and corrosive gases. The durable duplex zipcord construction with a 2.8 mm diameter allows for easy routing and installation in tight spaces.
