Extended reach, same flawless transmission
LC>LC DUPLEX MM 50/125 OM5 2.8MM 3M
Description
For short‑reach connections that still need room to move between devices, this 3m OM5 patch cable delivers fast, stable performance without sacrificing rack order. It gives installers enough distance to route links cleanly—even when equipment isn’t positioned side‑by‑side—while keeping the layout easy to trace during future adjustments.
As a maximum speed fiber optic cable, it supports high‑rate data traffic and ensures your setup stays efficient and upgrade‑ready.
Longer rack layouts often require additional distance, and a 3m patch keeps movement easy while still preventing the chaos of excessive loops.
With this length, labels remain visible, ports stay accessible, and routing remains organized—especially helpful during quick switch refreshes or optic replacements.
Using a LC fiber optic patch cord at 3m ensures stable, tidy paths even in dense infrastructure where clean cable workflows speed up daily work.
A 3m OM5 cable is a practical choice when you need a bit more freedom to route connections across the rack while keeping the layout structured for future upgrades. As network speeds rise, your cabling shouldn’t become the limiting factor.
This 3 m link offers reliable handling and predictable signal performance, making it a strong option within today’s fiber optics multimode solutions for short‑reach yet flexible installations.
Benefits
-
WideBand OM5 performance for today and future — designed for SWDM multi wavelength function in the 850–950 nm window, bringing the headroom modern fabrics need and keep backward matching with OM4.
-
It is ready to upgrade to a high speed (40G → 400G) — lining with the links of single & multi wavelength, so you can extent with no need to recabling your short network connection. (Optic dependent.)
-
Very high durability for business use — ≥ 1000 matings with minimal IL change; made for regular repatching in high density panels.
-
The connectors LC/UPC are Plug and play, which are standard in industry and that makes it easy and quick for turn ups and effortless in (moves, adds, and changes).
-
This lc to lc fiber optic cable comes with LSZH jaket that considered safier in case of fire. This kind of jacket construction is known as low smoke and zero halogen that supports the safety requirements in business facilities.
-
The cable is designed as compact and manageable form factor, as it is ≈ 3.0 mm duplex build with Heat‑shrink end protection that makes the cable stays clean and air passes (freely flow).
-
It is designed for the installations with high density, and its jacket comes with the green color coded for quick and easy identify and field work patching.
Applications
-
Cross-frame connections within the same rack where equipment is mounted across different rack sections.
-
Short switch-to-switch links in converged or hyper-converged infrastructure nodes.
-
Optical patching between rack-mounted network appliances and aggregation switches.
-
Links using a fiber optic cable LC connector between LC patch panels, cassettes, and transceivers inside the same cabinet.
-
Interconnects between storage systems and network switches positioned on separate rack frames.
-
Internal rack backbone connections supporting high-speed multimode fiber environments.
-
Lab and staging environments where a slightly longer lc fiber optic patch cord provides flexible routing between devices in the same rack.
Technical features
-
Length tolerance (3m): +100 mm / –0 mm, keeping the cable controlled while avoiding “just too short” installs.
-
Reliabe standards by the compliance with the (ISO/IEC 11801 1 OM5, IEC 60793 2 10 A1 OM5, and TIA 492AAAF) to ensure the compatibility between the suppliers.
-
Reduced attenuation throughout essential wavelength ranges, so clean and reliable links are assured by the typical values (≤ 2.4 dB/km @ 850 nm, ≤ 1.7 dB/km @ 953 nm, ≤ 0.6 dB/km @ 1300 nm).
-
This cable is ready to use in the rack cabinets rooms as it is designed to use in a temprature of –20 °C to +70 °C and insert pull resistance of (500 cycles < 0.5 dB change), which appropriate the utilize in the data centers.
-
This lc fiber patch cable is proven by testing in hard conditions, where the environmental multiple tests (temperature/humidity cycling, water immersion, dry/damp heat) shown the achieve ≤ 0.10 dB/km changes, confirming consistency in field applications.
-
Bend insensitive fiber = smoothly cabling, steadier racks — retains low loss even at small radii, with substantiated macrobend act (e.g., 2 turns @ 7.5 mm).
-
Low loss where it counts — insertion loss ≤ 0.3 dB (typ. < 0.2 dB) and return loss ≥ 30 dB (UPC) maintains the optical budgets positively.
-
High bandwidth for dense fabrics — EMB ≥ 4700 MHz·km @ 850 nm and ≥ 2470 MHz·km @ 953 nm to bring stable, high throughput links.
Choose the 3m OM5 LC/LC patch cable when your setup requires a bit more reach between devices in the same rack or adjacent equipment. It provides the flexibility for tidy routing while maintaining the maximum speed fiber optic cable performance expected in modern multimode networks.
