Cavo patch in fibra ottica ACT 10 metri LSZH multimodale 50/125 OM2 duplex con connettori LC e SC

The ACT 10 meter LSZH Multimode 50/125 OM2 Duplex LC SC fiber patch cable provides a 10 m multimode optical link with duplex LC and SC connectors. Designed for indoor network connections, the cable uses 50/125 µm OM2 multimode fiber and a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket to reduce smoke and hazardous gases in case of fire. This fiber patch cable is intended for reliable short-range data transmission in data centers, office racks and structured cabling where multimode connectivity is required.

Advantages

This ACT multimode patch cable combines duplex LC and SC terminations to offer compatibility with equipment using either connector type while maintaining a single continuous length of fiber. The OM2 50/125 construction supports common multimode laser and LED sources and is suitable for many legacy and current multimode network applications. The LSZH jacket material minimizes toxic fumes and smoke density, improving safety in enclosed or public indoor spaces. The 10 meter length provides flexibility in equipment placement without intermediate splices.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers and server rooms
• Office and commercial building structured cabling runs up to 10 m
• Multimode fiber links for video distribution and multimedia applications
• Environments where low-smoke and low-toxicity cable jackets are required

When it may not be suitable

This OM2 multimode cable is not intended for long-distance singlemode links or applications that require singlemode 9/125 µm fiber. It may not meet the performance requirements for the highest‑speed multimode standards over longer distances; for extended reach or higher bandwidth needs, a higher-grade OM3/OM4 cable or singlemode fiber may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM2)
• Length: 10 meters
• Connectors: Duplex LC to SC
• Jacket material: Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH)
• Polish/termination: Factory-terminated multimode fiber
• Application: Indoor patching and structured cabling

How to use

Route the cable along existing cable management paths and secure using appropriate clips or Velcro straps to avoid tight bends. Insert the LC duplex connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port, ensuring correct alignment and clean connector endfaces. Test the link with appropriate fiber testers or transceiver diagnostics after installation to verify attenuation and continuity. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius and keep connectors covered when not in use to prevent contamination.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that connected devices support multimode 50/125 µm fiber and use LC or SC ports
• Verify that a 10 m length is sufficient for your routing path and allows proper slack
• Assess whether OM2 performance meets your bandwidth and distance requirements or if OM3/OM4 or singlemode is needed
• Ensure LSZH jacket is required or permitted by building codes and installation policies

Recommendations

Keep connector endfaces clean and use dust caps when not connected. Perform insertion loss and continuity checks after installation. For best results in high-density environments, document connections on both ends and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve signal quality.
