METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable SC-D/SC-D OM5, 5.0 m

The METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable SC-D/SC-D OM5 is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for demanding data center and enterprise network applications. With a length of 5.0 meters and duplex SC-D connectors on both ends, this cable supports OM5 multimode fiber for high-speed transmission over short to medium distances.

Advantages

Optimized for high-bandwidth applications, the OM5 fiber provides superior performance at 850 nm and 953 nm wavelengths, supporting data rates up to 40 Gbps and beyond. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket ensures safety in enclosed spaces, while the green color allows for easy identification. Low insertion loss and high return loss guarantee reliable signal integrity.
