StarTech LCLCL-3M-OM5-FIBER LC to LC OM5 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable
Overview
This 3-meter (9.8 ft) StarTech LCLCL-3M-OM5-FIBER duplex fiber optic cable connects network devices with LC duplex connectors. It is designed for high-bandwidth applications, supporting up to 100Gbps, making it suitable for demanding network infrastructure in data centers or enterprise environments. The OM5 classification indicates enhanced performance for short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) over multimode fiber, allowing for higher data rates and increased bandwidth efficiency. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material minimizes toxic fumes and corrosive byproducts in case of fire, a critical consideration for enclosed spaces like server racks or plenum-rated ceilings.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with network switches, routers, servers, and other networking equipment featuring LC duplex fiber optic ports. It is designed for use with OM5, OM4, and OM3 multimode fiber infrastructure, ensuring backward compatibility with older standards while providing the necessary bandwidth for future upgrades. Specific applications include high-speed Ethernet links (100GbE, 40GbE, 10GbE, 1GbE), Fibre Channel, and other data communication protocols requiring high-speed fiber connectivity.
Installation Notes
The cable features a 2.9 mm Outer Diameter (OD) and a minimum bend radius of 3 cm (unloaded) and 6 cm (loaded) to prevent damage during installation. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 60°C, suitable for most indoor IT environments. Insertion loss is rated at 0.3dB, and return loss at 30dB, ensuring signal integrity over its 3-meter length.
