ACT 5 meter LSZH multimode 62.5/125 OM1 glasvezel-patchkabel duplex met ST- en SC-stekkers

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex 5m LSZH Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 with SC and ST connectors is a multimode duplex fiber designed for indoor network links. With a 5 meter length and OM1 62.5/125 core-cladding dimensions, the cable supports reliable short-range data transmission between active equipment and patch panels. The LSZH outer jacket reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for installations where safety and air quality are priorities.

Advantages

This duplex fiber patch cable provides stable multimode transmission with low attenuation appropriate for OM1 specifications. The presence of SC and ST connectors allows compatibility with a range of networking devices and patch panels. The LSZH jacket enhances fire safety for indoor deployments and confined spaces. The 5 meter length is convenient for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch connections without excessive slack.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode connections in data centers and telecom rooms
• Interconnection between switches, servers and patch panels
• Indoor installations where low-smoke, zero-halogen materials are required
• Laboratory and educational networking setups using OM1 fiber

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM1
• Core/cladding diameter: 62.5/125 µm
• Length: 5 m
• Configuration: Duplex (two fibers)
• Connectors: SC on one end and ST on the other
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Typical application: Short-haul data and voice networks

How to use

Route the cable between the two intended ports ensuring proper connector alignment: insert the SC connector into the corresponding SC adapter or port and the ST connector into the matching ST receptacle, observing connector orientation and gently twisting the ST bayonet if required. Keep bend radii above the recommended minimum for multimode fiber to avoid increased loss, and secure the cable to racks or trays to prevent tension at the connector ends. Perform a visual inspection and, if available, verify link continuity and attenuation with appropriate test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment, avoid sharp bends and kinks, and use cable management to prevent strain on connectors. For safety in enclosed spaces, choose LSZH-jacketed cables like this product to reduce toxic emissions. When linking equipment across longer distances or requiring higher bandwidth, consider higher-grade multimode types (OM2/OM3/OM4) or singlemode alternatives as appropriate for the network design.
