ACT 1 meter LSZH multimode 50/125 OM5 glasvezel-patchkabel duplex met LC-stekkers

The ACT OM5 Fiber Patch Cable is a 1 metre duplex multimode fiber assembly with LC connectors designed for high-speed data transmission in modern networks. Featuring a 50/125 µm core/cladding structure and an OM5 modal specification, this cable supports wideband multimode applications and full duplex links. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gas emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for enclosed or public spaces where safety standards are important.

Advantages

This 1 m OM5 fiber patch cable provides compact LC duplex terminations for dense patching, low insertion loss for reliable signal integrity, and a multimode core that supports higher modal bandwidth for short- to medium-range high-speed links. The LSZH outer jacket improves site safety and simplifies compliance with low-smoke requirements, while the standardized multimode geometry ensures compatibility with multimode transceivers and passive components.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This multimode OM5 cable is not intended for long-haul single-mode applications or runs that require single-mode transceivers. It may not be the optimal choice where infrastructure requires armored, outdoor-rated, or plenum-rated cabling; in those cases choose a cable specifically designed for harsh environments or regulatory requirements.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each LC connector into the corresponding LC port on patch panels, transceivers, or equipment. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid signal loss; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools to remove dust and debris. Route the cable along existing cable management paths, avoid tight bends beyond the specified bend radius, and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors. For testing, use an optical power meter or insertion-loss tester compatible with multimode OM5 links.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use this ACT OM5 1 m duplex LC patch cable for short interconnects inside data centers and equipment racks. Maintain connector cleanliness, avoid exceeding recommended bend radius, and pair with compatible multimode transceivers and structured cabling components to achieve reliable high-speed links.
