Ekivalan OM5 duplex patchkabel LC/LC limoengroen 30m COZOM5LCLC2SL0300A

Data centre technicians and network engineers use this OM5 duplex patch cable to link high-speed switches, servers, and storage over 30 metres. The lime green LSZH jacket stands out in dense fibre trays, and the crossed A-B polarity ensures correct transmit/receive alignment in duplex links.

• Standards: IEC 60793-2-10 Type A1a.4, ISO/IEC 11801, TIA/EIA-598-C

Why choose it

OM5 fibre supports short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM), allowing four wavelengths over a single pair for 40G and 100G Ethernet up to 150 metres. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces. Lime green colour coding follows TIA/EIA-598-C for OM5 identification.

Ideal use cases

• 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet backbone links in data centres
• Fibre Channel storage area networks
• High-density patching between LC-equipped equipment

Good to know

The duplex zip-cord construction keeps both fibres together for tidy routing. The crossed A-B polarity matches standard transceiver pinouts, so no additional polarity flip is needed in typical duplex installations.
