Fibre optic cable Goobay LC-SC OM4 0.5 m Pink

The Goobay LC-SC OM4 0.5 m Pink fibre optic cable is a multimode patch cable with a 50 µm core diameter, designed for short-run high-speed data links. At 0.5 m length it connects LC-duplex and SC-duplex ports, supporting full duplex communication in structured networks. The pink jacket provides visual distinction for easier cable management in offices, data centres and industrial installations. The cable sheath is halogen-free and flame retardant, and each cable is supplied with a test protocol and protective dust covers for the connectors.

Advantages

This OM4 multimode cable offers a balance of compact connector interfaces and reliable multimode transmission. The combination of LC and SC duplex connectors enables compatibility with a wide range of equipment. A halogen-free, flame-retardant outer sheath improves safety in confined spaces, while the included test protocol documents optical performance. The short 0.5 m length minimises signal loss for patch-panel and equipment-to-equipment connections.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode links between networking equipment and patch panels
• High-density rack and cabinet patching in offices and data centres
• Industrial and enterprise installations requiring flame-retardant, halogen-free cabling
• Full duplex connections between LC and SC ports on transceivers and switches

How to use

Identify the LC and SC ports on your devices and remove the protective dust covers from the connectors. Gently insert the LC-duplex connector into the corresponding LC port and the SC-duplex connector into the SC port until they click into place. Avoid bending the fibre beyond the manufacturer’s recommended radius and keep the cable routed to prevent kinks or sharp bends. When disconnecting, press the connector latch and withdraw straight out to avoid damaging the ferrule.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m OM4 LC-SC cable for short patching runs in racks or between adjacent devices. Maintain proper bend radius and keep connectors capped during storage. For longer links or different connector requirements, select an appropriate fibre type or connector combination. The halogen-free, flame-retardant jacket makes this cable suitable for enclosed installations where reduced smoke and toxicity are required.
