Extralink LC/UPC - LC/UPC kuitu-patchkaapeli, monimuoto OM3, duplex, 3 mm vaippa, 2 m

Extralink LC/UPC to LC/UPC fiber patchcord, Multi‑Mode OM3, Duplex, 3 mm jacket, 2 m is a factory-terminated duplex multimode fiber cable designed for short-range optical links. The cable uses OM3 graded multimode fiber with LC/UPC connectors on both ends and a 3 mm outer jacket, offering consistent insertion loss and return loss suitable for data centers, server rooms and structured cabling installations that require multimode OM3 performance.

Advantages

This LC/UPC-LC/UPC OM3 duplex patchcord provides low insertion loss and stable optical performance for short-distance multimode connections. The 3 mm jacket ensures robust handling and easy routing in patch panels and cable trays, while the LC connectors offer a compact footprint ideal for high-density ports. Factory-polished UPC endfaces deliver predictable connector performance and reduce the need for on-site termination.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches and servers in data centers and server rooms
• Patch panels and optical distribution frames in structured cabling
• FTTH and enterprise ONT/OLT connections where multimode OM3 is specified
• Short-distance links for storage area networks (SAN) and LAN backbones

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM3
• Connector type: LC/UPC to LC/UPC, duplex
• Cable jacket diameter: 3.0 mm
• Length: 2 m
• Endface polish: UPC (ultra physical contact)
• Application: Short-range multimode optical links

How to use

Connect one LC/UPC connector to the output port of the transmitting device and the matching LC/UPC connector to the input port of the receiving device, ensuring proper alignment for duplex channels. Route the 3 mm jacketed cable through patch panels or cable management systems to avoid sharp bends; observe the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fiber. Clean connector endfaces before mating using appropriate fiber cleaning tools to maintain low insertion loss and reliable performance.

Recommendations

Store and handle the patchcord to avoid kinks or tight bends. Use LC dust caps when connectors are not in use, and perform endface inspection and cleaning at installation and during maintenance to preserve OM3 multimode performance.
