Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS219V2049 1Gb Duplex OM1 LC LC Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

This 3M RED OM1 LC-to-LC duplex fiber optic patch cable is designed for 1Gbps Ethernet connections in structured cabling systems, including surveillance networks and data centers. It utilizes 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber, providing reliable data transmission for short to medium distances where higher bandwidth applications are not required. The duplex configuration ensures simultaneous transmit and receive paths, critical for full-duplex network devices. The FCDUS219V2049 model is built for environments where dependable, factory-new cabling is a prerequisite for network stability.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC duplex fiber optic connectors. This includes a wide range of network switches, media converters, routers, and network interface cards (NICs) from various manufacturers that support 1Gbps multimode fiber connections. It is specifically suited for connecting devices within a rack or between adjacent racks in a data center or telecommunications room. For surveillance systems, it connects IP cameras with SFP modules or network switches that utilize LC duplex ports.

Installation Notes

When installing, maintain a minimum bend radius of 1 inch (2.5 cm) for the OM1 fiber to prevent signal loss or damage. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion using appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools. The duplex clip ensures correct orientation for transmit (TX) and receive (RX) ports on connected equipment. Avoid twisting or kinking the cable during deployment. The cable jacket material is suitable for standard indoor environments; it is not rated for direct burial or extreme temperature exposure.
