Network Cable Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM5 7.50m Green

The Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM5, 7.50m in green is a multimode fiber patch lead designed for high-density network environments. It uses LC duplex connectors in a uniboot configuration to reduce cable routing space and supports the OM5 multimode specification (50/125µm) for wavelength-division multiplexing and improved multimode bandwidth. The 7.50 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack and equipment-to-equipment connections in data centers and enterprise networks, while the green jacket enables quick visual identification of OM5 fiber runs.

Advantages

The uniboot LC/LC duplex design combines two fibers in a single compact boot to minimize connector footprint and simplify cable management in patch panels and high-density switches. The OM5 50/125µm multimode construction supports enhanced performance for short- to medium-reach links and is optimized for multi-wavelength applications. The green color coding aligns with common industry practice for identifying OM5 fiber, aiding installation and maintenance. Overall, the cable offers a balance of physical compactness and multimode performance for active network infrastructures.

Suitable for

• Inter-rack and intra-rack connections in data centers
• Patch panels and high-density network switches
• Short- to medium-reach multimode fiber links and multi-wavelength applications
• Environments requiring color-coded fiber identification and neat cable routing

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM5, 50/125 µm core/cladding
• Connector type: LC/LC duplex uniboot
• Length: 7.50 meters
• Jacket color: Green (OM5 identification)
• Configuration: Duplex for simultaneous transmit and receive

How to use

Route the Helos OM5 uniboot patch cable between the two LC-enabled ports you intend to connect, ensuring correct orientation for transmit and receive channels. Insert the LC connectors into the corresponding LC adapter or port until the latch clicks. Use the uniboot boot to maintain correct polarity and to keep both fibers aligned during installation. Avoid tight bends near the connector and ensure the cable bend radius meets recommended limits for multimode fiber to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector boots rather than the fiber jacket, avoid exceeding manufacturer-recommended bend radius, and keep connectors clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. For organized installations, label both ends and secure the cable in cable management panels to prevent strain and accidental disconnection.
