Glasvezelkabel Helos 3m OM4 LC/LC

The Helos 3m OM4 LC/LC fibre optic cable is a duplex patch cable with a 50 µm multimode core and LC connectors on both ends. At 3 metres in length and specified for OM4 performance, it is intended for high-speed short-range links inside data centers, server rooms and local network distributions. The cable supports high bandwidth and low attenuation typical of OM4 multimode fibre, offering predictable performance for 10 Gigabit and higher multimode applications over short distances.

Advantages

This OM4 LC/LC cable provides stable, repeatable signal transmission with low insertion loss and consistent connector performance thanks to precision LC terminations. The 50 µm core supports increased modal bandwidth compared with lower-grade multimode fibres, enabling higher data rates and extended reach for multimode systems. Its duplex LC/LC configuration simplifies full-duplex connections between transceivers, patch panels and active network equipment.

Suitable for

• Short-reach multimode links in data centers and server rooms
• Patch panel to switch or transceiver connections (duplex)
• High-density rack cabling where LC connectors are required
• 10GbE and higher multimode links within the OM4 reach limits

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode, 50 µm core diameter
• Connector type: LC to LC, duplex
• Length: 3 m
• Cable assembly: duplex patch cable suitable for indoor use
• Typical applications: multimode short-range data transmission

How to use

Connect one LC connector to the transceiver or patch panel port and the matching LC connector to the corresponding port on the target device, ensuring correct polarity for duplex operation. Avoid bending the cable beyond manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius and keep connectors free of dust by using protective caps until installation. For optimal performance, polish or inspect connector endfaces and verify link performance with appropriate test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Store the cable in a clean, dry environment and route it through cable management systems to prevent sharp bends and mechanical stress. Use fibre cleaning tools before mating connectors and verify that the selected OM4 cable meets system distance and transceiver compatibility for the intended data rates.
