InLine glasvezel-duplexkabel LC/ST 50/125µm OM3 10m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/ST 50/125µm OM3 10m is a multimode duplex fiber cable designed for full-duplex optical data transmission. It connects devices using an LC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other, supporting high-speed links with reduced modal dispersion thanks to a 50 µm core and OM3 specification. With a 10 meter jacket length, this cable is suitable for installations in server rooms, network racks and structured cabling where reliable, low-loss optical links are required.

Advantages

This LC/ST duplex cable offers consistent performance for multimode networks, providing low insertion loss and stable signal integrity over short to medium distances. The OM3 multimode rating enables higher bandwidth capabilities compared with lower OM classifications, making it compatible with common 10 Gbps multimode applications and suitable for future-proofing network segments. The combination of LC and ST connectors increases interoperability with a variety of networking equipment and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, transceivers and optical modules in data centers
• Patch and cross-connect applications in server rooms and telecommunications closets
• Short- to medium-range multimode optical links requiring OM3 performance
• Environments needing a mix of LC and ST connector types for compatibility

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode, 50/125 µm core/cladding
• OM classification: OM3 (laser-optimized multimode)
• Connector types: LC (one end) to ST (other end), duplex configuration
• Length: 10 meters
• Transmission: Full duplex optical signal path
• Typical use: Data center and structured cabling links, short- to medium-range multimode networks

How to use

Route the cable through cable management channels or trays to avoid tight bends and protect the fiber from physical stress. Insert the LC connector into the LC receptacle and the ST connector into the ST port, ensuring proper alignment and a secure mechanical connection. Verify link status and signal levels using appropriate optical testing equipment or monitoring interfaces on networking devices. When disconnecting, handle connectors by the boot or body and avoid touching the ferrule end face to prevent contamination.

Recommendations

Maintain bend radii according to manufacturer guidelines, keep connectors clean using fiber-grade cleaning tools, and label both ends of the cable for easy identification. Use OM3-rated transceivers and adhere to recommended link budgets for reliable 10 Gbps multimode performance.
