Kuitukaapeli Alcasa LW-820SC5 20 m SC vihreä

The Alcasa LW-820SC5 20 m SC Green is an OM5 multimode fibre optic patch cable designed for high-density network environments. With SC connectors on both ends and a 50 µm core diameter, this 20-metre fibre cable provides stable multimode transmission suitable for short- to medium-range links in data centres, server rooms and LAN backbone segments. The green jacket identifies the OM5 grade and helps with consistent cable management in structured cabling installations.

Advantages

This OM5 fibre cable combines multimode performance with standardized SC terminations to deliver consistent optical connection quality and low insertion loss. The 20 m length reduces the need for additional patching equipment in many deployments, while the 50 µm core supports common multimode transceivers and active equipment. The SC connectors ensure simple push-pull mating and wide compatibility with panels and transceivers that accept SC interfaces.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching between switches, servers and fiber panels
• Enterprise LAN backbone and horizontal distribution
• Multimode transceiver connections and short-range high-speed links
• Structured cabling where OM5 colour coding is required

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM5 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: SC–SC duplex
• Length: 20 m
• Jacket colour: green (OM5 identification)
• Polish type: UPC (typical for SC multimode assemblies)
• Typical insertion loss and return loss suitable for multimode links (follow equipment specifications)

How to use

Install the 20 m Alcasa OM5 SC–SC cable by aligning SC connectors with the corresponding SC ports on network equipment or fibre patch panels and pushing until the connector latches. Avoid twisting the cable and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the cable manufacturer when routing through trays or conduits. For best results, verify connector cleanliness before mating using appropriate fibre cleaning tools and inspect links with test equipment after installation to confirm performance.

Recommendations

Use this OM5 fibre patch cable for short- to medium-distance multimode links where SC terminations are required. Keep connectors protected with dust caps when not connected, avoid sharp bends and tight staples, and follow workplace safety procedures when working near live equipment. For runs longer than 20 m or for single-mode requirements, select an appropriate cable type matching your transceivers and link budget.
