InLine glasvezel-duplexkabel LC/LC 50/125µm OM5 2 m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC 50/125µm OM5 2m is a multimode duplex patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in modern network environments. It features a 50 µm core diameter and OM5 grade multimode fiber that supports multiple wavelengths for short- to mid-range links. Both ends use LC duplex connectors, providing compact, reliable connections for switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

This LC/LC duplex cable offers low insertion loss and consistent multimode performance across the OM5 wavelength range. The compact LC connectors reduce port space while maintaining mechanical stability and optical alignment. The OM5 fiber specification enables wavelength-division multiplexing techniques for increased capacity on short-reach links, and the 2 m length is convenient for rack-to-rack and patch-panel connections where a neat, organized cabling layout is required.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Interconnecting switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers
• Enterprise network uplinks and server connections
• Short- to mid-range multimode fiber links using OM5-enabled equipment
• High-density rack installations where LC duplex connectors save space

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM5 multimode
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Length: 2 m
• Mode: Duplex, multimode
• Typical use: Short- to mid-range data center and enterprise links

How to use

Route the cable between the LC ports of the devices to be connected, ensuring connectors are free from dust and contaminants before insertion. Align the duplex clip correctly with the device port and insert until it clicks to secure the connection. Avoid tight bends and maintain the cable bend radius recommended for multimode fiber to prevent attenuation. If necessary, use fiber dust caps when ports are not in use and store excess cable length neatly in cable management trays to reduce strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean LC connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before making connections. For optimal performance, use OM5-capable transceivers and ensure patching follows the data center’s structured cabling standards. Avoid kinking the cable and do not exceed the recommended bend radius to maintain low loss and reliable signal transmission.
