Description

StarTech A50FBLCLC5 OM3 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The StarTech A50FBLCLC5 is a 5-meter (16.4 ft) OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed network connections. It features LC Duplex connectors on both ends, terminated with UPC polish for optimal signal integrity. This cable supports full-duplex data transfer rates of 1Gbps, 10Gbps, 40Gbps, and up to 100Gbps, making it suitable for demanding data center, enterprise, and telecommunications environments where bandwidth and low latency are critical. The aqua-colored jacket is standard for OM3 fiber, aiding in identification within complex cabling infrastructure.

Compatibility

This A50FBLCLC5 cable is compatible with any network devices utilizing LC Duplex connectors and requiring OM3 multimode fiber. This includes a wide range of switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and transceivers from various manufacturers supporting 1Gbps, 10Gbps (e.g., SFP+), 40Gbps (e.g., QSFP+), and 100Gbps (e.g., QSFP28) Ethernet standards. It is designed for use with 850nm wavelength transceivers.

Installation Notes

The cable has an outer diameter of 3mm and operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 60°C. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material is suitable for installations where fire safety regulations require reduced smoke and toxic fume emissions in case of fire. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation or damage.
