InLine glasvezel-duplexkabel LC/SC 50/125µm OM5 25 m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/SC 50/125µm OM5 25m is a multimode fiber patch cable designed for high-bandwidth short- to medium-reach networks. It has a 50 µm core diameter and OM5 specification to support wavelength division multiplexing and improved modal bandwidth. The cable assembly provides full duplex communication with LC connectors on one end and SC connectors on the other, enabling flexible connectivity between different transceivers and patch panels. The 25 meter length offers extended reach for equipment rooms, racks and data centre pathways while maintaining signal integrity for high-speed data transmission.

Advantages

This fiber duplex cable combines the higher modal bandwidth of OM5 multimode fiber with the convenience of mixed LC and SC terminations, allowing interconnection between devices with different port types without additional adapters. Full duplex operation enables simultaneous bidirectional data transfer, reducing latency in network links. The 50/125 µm core/cladding construction is compatible with standard multimode transceivers and supports common protocols used in enterprise and data centre environments. The 25 m length balances reach and manageability for structured cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Interconnection between LC and SC ports in server rooms and data centres
• High-bandwidth multimode links supporting short- to medium-range distances
• Patch panel to switch or transceiver connections where OM5 performance is required
• Environments that require full duplex multimode fiber links

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM5
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector 1: Duplex LC
• Connector 2: Duplex SC
• Configuration: Duplex (bi-directional simultaneous)
• Length: 25 m

How to use

Route the cable along cable management trays or within conduits to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress. Plug the LC duplex connector into the LC-compatible transceiver or panel port and the SC duplex connector into the corresponding SC port, ensuring proper alignment and secure seating of connectors. Observe standard fiber handling practices: keep connectors clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools, avoid kinking the cable, and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer when installing. Verify link operation using appropriate optical test equipment or network diagnostics after installation.

Recommendations

Use the cable in controlled indoor environments and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. For best optical performance, clean fiber endfaces before mating and use fiber patch panels or protective boots where repeated connections occur. Match OM5 multimode transceivers and active components to maximise the benefits of the fiber specification.
