Netwerkkabel Helos glasvezel-patchkabel Uniboot LC/LC duplex 50/125µm OM5 3.0m groen

The Helos LWL Patch Cable Uniboot LC/LC Duplex 50/125µm OM5 3.0m Green is a multimode fiber patch cable designed for short- to medium-range data links in structured cabling systems. It uses LC duplex connectors in a uniboot format and OM5 graded multimode fiber with a 50/125µm core/cladding geometry. The 3.0 m length and green jacket identify it for OM5 applications and allow convenient routing between networking equipment in racks, patch panels and active devices.

Advantages

This uniboot LC/LC duplex cable reduces connector bulk at patch panels due to its combined boot design, enabling higher port density and neater cable management. OM5 multimode fiber supports wideband multimode operation and is suitable for high-bandwidth short-reach applications. The duplex configuration provides simultaneous bi-directional communication, and the 3.0 m length offers flexibility for common rack and cabinet layouts while the green jacket visually denotes OM5 fiber.

Suitable for

• Data center horizontal and patching links
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch short-reach connections
• High-bandwidth applications within building backbones and telecom rooms
• Environments requiring high port density and compact patching

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC/LC duplex, uniboot style
• Fiber type: Multimode OM5
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Length: 3.0 m
• Jacket color: Green (OM5 identification)

How to use

Route the cable between LC-compatible ports on patch panels, transceivers or active networking equipment. Align and insert LC connectors until they click into place, ensuring correct polarity for duplex links. Avoid sharp bends and maintain the cable bend radius recommended for multimode fiber to prevent signal loss. When disconnecting, depress the LC latch and withdraw the connector straight out to avoid damaging the ferrule or connector housing.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in a clean environment to prevent contamination of connector endfaces. Use dust caps when connectors are not mated, and perform visual inspection or endface cleaning if required before use. For best performance in high-density installations, plan routing to minimize stress and maintain bend-radius limits.
