Network Cable Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM5 1.0m Green

The Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM5 1.0m Green is a fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed multimode networks. It uses OM5 graded multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter and a duplex uniboot LC/LC connector configuration to provide two-way communication in a compact, color-coded green jacket. At 1.0 m length this cable is suited for short interconnects in racks, patch panels and active equipment while maintaining low insertion loss and stable signal transmission across multiple wavelengths.

Advantages

The duplex uniboot LC/LC design reduces connector footprint and simplifies cable management in dense installations. OM5 multimode fiber supports multiband transmission and improved performance for wavelength-division multiplexing over short distances. The 50/125 µm fiber geometry is compatible with standard multimode transceivers and offers reliable modal bandwidth for LAN and data center links. The green jacket provides visual identification for OM5 cabling schemes and aids quick tracing in patch fields.

Suitable for

• Short-distance links between switches, patch panels and servers in data centers
• Multimode networks requiring multiband or wavelength-division solutions
• High-density rack and cabinet environments where reduced connector footprint is needed
• Structured cabling installations that use color-coded fiber management

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM5
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: LC/LC duplex uniboot
• Length: 1.0 meter

• Polish/type: Typically UPC or APC depending on variant (confirm before use)

How to use

Install the patch cable by inserting the LC connectors into the corresponding LC ports on devices or patch panels, ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive pairs. Route the cable following existing cable management paths and avoid sharp bends closer than the fiber minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation. For best results, label both ends in accordance with site cabling standards and verify connectivity with appropriate optical test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Avoid excessive bending, tensile stress, and exposure to contaminants. Use dust caps on connectors when not in use and perform end-face inspection and cleaning before mating. Match the cable to compatible multimode transceivers and follow local cabling standards for optimal performance.
