Network Cable Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM4 7.50m Black

The Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM4 7.50m Black is a duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable engineered for high-bandwidth links in structured cabling systems. It uses OM4 graded 50/125µm multimode fiber to support enhanced modal bandwidth and reduced attenuation over short and medium ranges. The uniboot LC/LC duplex connector arrangement combines two fiber cores in a single, space-saving jacketed assembly and the 7.50 meter length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack and equipment connections in data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications closets.

Advantages

The uniboot design reduces cable diameter and improves airflow in dense installations while simplifying routing and labeling. OM4 multimode fiber delivers higher effective bandwidth compared with earlier multimode grades, enabling support for 10 Gbps and higher aggregated links at common data center distances. LC/LC duplex connectors offer reliable low-loss mating with standard LC adapters and transceivers. The black outer jacket provides a neutral appearance for mixed equipment environments and helps differentiate runs where color coding is used.

Suitable for

• Data center horizontal and equipment interconnects
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections
• High-density patch panels and fiber trays
• Short to medium reach multimode applications (10G and higher)

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125µm OM4
• Connector type: LC to LC duplex, uniboot
• Length: 7.50 meters
• Configuration: Duplex
• Jacket color: Black
• Typical use: Indoor patching in structured cabling

How to use

Route the cable through cable management pathways or trays to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver port until it clicks into place, observing polarity for transmit and receive alignment. When removing, press the connector latch and gently withdraw to avoid stress on the fiber. Use appropriate dust caps when connectors are not in use to prevent contamination. Verify link performance with a certified fiber tester after installation to confirm attenuation and continuity meet system requirements.

Recommendations

Maintain a minimum bend radius according to manufacturer guidelines, avoid kinking, and keep connectors clean. For optimal performance in high-density environments, pair OM4 patching with compatible OM4 transceivers and structured cabling components.
