Glasvezel-duplexkabel LC/SC InLine 88642O 50/125µm OM3 2m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/SC 50/125µm OM3 2m is a multimode patch cable designed for reliable duplex transmission in structured networks. With a 50 µm core and OM3 fibre specification, this 2-metre cable provides low attenuation and consistent signal integrity for high-speed connections between active equipment using LC and SC connectors. It is intended for use where short to medium-range high-bandwidth links are required, such as server racks, switches and patch panels.

Advantages

This duplex cable offers low insertion loss and controlled modal bandwidth thanks to the 50/125µm multimode core and OM3 grade glass. The LC to SC connector configuration simplifies connection between equipment with different port types while maintaining fast, full-duplex communication. Its 2 m length balances flexibility and minimal excess slack in rack and cabinet environments. The cable is manufactured to industry tolerances, ensuring repeatable performance and compatibility with standard multimode transceivers and patching hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centre racks
• High-speed multimode links for LAN and enterprise networks
• Short- to medium-distance backbone and horizontal cabling
• Equipment migration where LC and SC interfaces need interconnection

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Multimode OM3
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector types: LC (one end) to SC (other end) duplex
• Length: 2 metres
• Mode: Duplex (two fibres for full-duplex communication)
• Typical applications: Data centre patching, server interconnects, network backbone

How to use

Identify the correct ports on your devices—LC on one side and SC on the other—and align the connectors with the port keying before inserting. Handle the fibre connectors by their housings and avoid touching the ferrule endface. For installation in racks or patch panels, gently route the cable to prevent tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use proper dust caps when ports are unused and inspect or clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools prior to making connections to ensure optimal signal performance.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in a clean environment, avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress, and use dust covers when connectors are not connected. For multimode OM3 links, pair this cable with compatible transceivers and observe recommended distance and bandwidth limits for the required data rates to ensure reliable operation.
