Kuitu-patchkabel helos 50/125µm OM3 LC-SC 0,5 m

This helos fiber optic patch cable uses 50/125 µm OM3 multimode fiber and is terminated with an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other. The 0.5 m length is suitable for short links inside racks, between patch panels, or connecting active equipment in data centers and local area networks. The OM3 grade supports higher bandwidth and laser-optimized performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed multimode applications.

Advantages

The cable delivers low insertion loss and stable optical performance across multimode links, with standardized 50/125 µm core/cladding geometry. Factory-terminated LC and SC connectors provide reliable mechanical fit and consistent optical contact for plug-and-play use. The short 0.5 m length minimizes excess slack in dense rack environments and reduces potential signal attenuation related to unnecessary cable runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers and server rooms
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet multimode links and other high-speed LAN connections
• Short interconnect runs within telecom cabinets and network racks
• Migration or testing of multimode links where LC-to-SC termination is required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: multimode 50/125 µm, OM3 (laser-optimized)
• Connector A: LC (single-fiber duplex/standard LC interface)
• Connector B: SC (standard SC interface)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Typical use: short-distance multimode optical interconnects
• Performance: low insertion loss, suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over multimode

How to use

Route the patch cable between the LC port and the SC port required for your setup, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges that could stress the fiber. Remove protective caps from connectors before insertion and align each connector until it clicks into place. For removal, press the connector latch (for LC) or release the SC coupling mechanism and gently withdraw the connector. Keep connectors capped when not in use to prevent contamination.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m OM3 LC–SC patch cable for short, high-density connections inside racks or between adjacent panels. Maintain bend radii according to manufacturer guidelines, clean connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating, and store unused cables with protective caps to preserve optical performance.
