Network Cable Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM4 10.0m Black

The Network Cable Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM4 10.0m Black is a fiber optic patch cable designed for high-bandwidth optical links. It uses OM4 multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter, terminated with uniboot LC connectors in a duplex LC/LC configuration. The 10.0 meter length and black jacket make it suitable for organized runs in data centers, server rooms and structured cabling environments where OM4 performance is required.

Advantages

This cable combines OM4 multimode fiber performance with a compact uniboot LC duplex termination to reduce connector density in patch panels. The 50/125 µm fiber supports higher modal bandwidth compared with older multimode grades, enabling reliable high-speed transmission over short to medium distances. The uniboot design keeps the two fibers together in a single boot, simplifying cable management and routing while the black outer jacket provides a discreet appearance and UV-resistant protection in indoor installations.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers
• Server-to-switch fiber links in enterprise and colocation environments
• Structured building backbone and horizontal fiber runs where OM4 is specified

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: Uniboot LC duplex (LC/LC)
• Length: 10.0 m
• Color: Black

How to use

Inspect both connector endfaces before installation to ensure they are free of dust and contamination; clean with appropriate fiber-cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable along existing cable trays or inside cable management channels, avoiding tight bends and exceeding minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fiber. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver port until it latches. Secure excess length with Velcro straps or cable ties placed loosely to prevent microbending.

Recommendations

Use this OM4 uniboot LC/LC duplex cable for short- to medium-reach 10 GbE and higher multimode links where reduced connector footprint and neat cable management are priorities. Maintain proper bend radius and perform endface inspection and testing after installation to verify link performance.
