Lightwin LDP-50 LC-LC cavo patch fibra ottica multimodale OM4 5m, viola, LSZH, duplex, 50/125µm, 100G Ethernet Ready LDP-50 LC-LC 5.0 OM4

In a busy data center, a network engineer plugs this Lightwin LC-LC OM4 patch cable into a 100G switch-to-server link. The violet LSZH jacket stands out among hundreds of cables, and the duplex 50/125µm multimode core delivers the bandwidth needed for high-speed storage traffic. At 5 meters, it bridges the gap between rack-mounted equipment without excess slack.

Why choose it

OM4 fiber provides extended reach for 100G multimode links compared to OM3, making it ideal for modern data centers. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke in case of fire, improving safety in enclosed spaces. Precision-polished LC connectors ensure low insertion loss and reliable connections in high-density patch panels.

Ideal use cases

• Data center spine-leaf interconnects
• Storage area networks (SAN) requiring high throughput
• Enterprise LAN backbones with 40G/100G uplinks
• High-performance computing clusters

Good to know

The cable is duplex, meaning it contains two fibers for bidirectional communication. It is backward compatible with OM3 and OM2 systems, but to achieve full 100G distances, both ends must be OM4. The violet jacket is the industry-standard color for OM4, simplifying identification.
