ACT 1,5 m LSZH multimode 50/125 OM5 glasvezel-patchkabel duplex met LC-stekkers

The ACT OM5 Fiber Patch Cable 1.5m Duplex with LC connectors is a 50/125 µm multimode fiber designed for high-speed, short-range optical links. With a 1.5 meter orange-jacketed LSZH cable and duplex LC terminations, the cable supports full-duplex communication and is suitable for modern data center and enterprise network topologies where reliable multimode performance and low smoke, zero halogen safety are required.

Advantages

The OM5 multimode core diameter of 50 µm supports wideband multimode transmission, enabling improved performance for short-wavelength division multiplexing and enhanced modal bandwidth for contemporary network equipment. The duplex LC connectors provide compact, reliable connections with low insertion loss. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gas emissions and smoke density in the event of fire, which makes the cable appropriate for installations in confined or public areas where fire-safety regulations are strict.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode links in data centers and server rooms
• Interconnects between switches, patch panels and transceivers
• Enterprise horizontal and backbone cabling where LSZH is required
• High-density racks and fiber patch panels using duplex LC ports

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM5, 50/125 µm core/cladding
• Length: 1.5 m
• Connector type: Duplex LC on both ends
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Mode: Full duplex
• Typical use: Short-range high-speed multimode links

How to use

Inspect both LC connectors and the transceiver or patch panel ports for dust and debris before making a connection. Align each LC connector with the matching duplex port and insert until it clicks to ensure a secure mechanical and optical interface. For duplex operation observe transmit/receive orientation as required by the connected equipment. Avoid tight bends and maintain the cable bend radius recommended by the connector manufacturer to preserve optical performance. When routing, secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors and avoid sharp edges.

Recommendations

Store and handle the OM5 patch cable in a clean environment and use dust caps when connectors are not in use. Use fiber cleaning tools before mating to minimize insertion loss. Select LSZH cabling where building codes or safety policies require reduced smoke and halogen emissions. For links beyond typical multimode distances or when single-mode performance is required, use appropriate single-mode fiber cabling and equipment.
