StarTech A50FBLCLC1 OM3 Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech A50FBLCLC1 is a 1-meter OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed network connections. Featuring LC duplex connectors on both ends, this cable is built with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, making it suitable for installations where fire safety regulations are critical. Its aqua color aids in easy identification within complex network racks. This cable is engineered to support data transfer rates up to 100Gbps, ensuring minimal signal degradation for demanding applications like surveillance systems, data centers, and enterprise networks.

Compatibility

This A50FBLCLC1 cable is compatible with any network equipment utilizing LC duplex connectors and requiring OM3 multimode fiber. This includes a wide range of network switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and fiber optic transceivers (e.g., SFP, SFP+, QSFP+) that specify OM3 fiber support. It is suitable for use with StarTech's own line of network devices and third-party equipment requiring 50/125 micron fiber.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 3mm outer diameter and is rated for operation between -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The LSZH jacket requires careful handling during installation to avoid damage, but offers superior fire safety compared to standard PVC jackets. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion into network equipment ports to prevent signal loss or damage.
