ACT 20 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM4 glasvezel-patchkabel duplex met LC- en SC-stekkers

The ACT 20 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM4 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and SC connectors is a duplex multimode fiber cable engineered for high-density networking and short- to medium-distance data links. With a 50 µm core diameter and OM4 grading, the cable supports enhanced modal bandwidth for high-speed applications. The jacket is made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material to reduce smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire, making it suitable for installations where safety and regulatory compliance are important.

Advantages

This duplex cable combines LC and SC connector types to offer flexible termination options for equipment with LC or SC ports. The 50/125 µm multimode OM4 fiber provides increased bandwidth and improved performance compared with lower-grade multimode fibers for typical enterprise and data centre links. The 20 meter length covers many common inter-rack and room-to-room connections without intermediate splices. The LSZH jacket adds fire-safety benefits in indoor deployments and areas with restricted ventilation.

Suitable for

• Patching between network switches, transceivers and patch panels
• Inter-rack and cross-room multimode connections in data centres and telecom rooms
• High-speed Ethernet and Fibre Channel links over multimode OM4
• Indoor structured cabling where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Configuration: Duplex
• Length: 20 meters
• Connectors: LC to SC (duplex)
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)

How to use

Connect the LC end to devices or transceivers that accept LC duplex connectors and the SC end to equipment or patch panels with SC ports. Ensure connector cleanliness before mating by inspecting and, if necessary, cleaning connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools to maintain optimal signal quality. Route the cable following existing cable management paths, avoiding tight bends and mechanical stress; adhere to minimum bend radius recommendations for multimode fiber to prevent increased attenuation.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment; avoid kinking and excessive pulling force. Use cable ties or Velcro straps rather than metal clamps to secure the cable. For best performance, maintain connectors and patching points free of dust and contaminants and verify link performance after installation using appropriate test equipment.
