Glasfiber-duplexkabel InLine 88642P LC/SC 50/125µm OM4 2 m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/SC 50/125µm OM4 2m is a multimode patch cable engineered for reliable high-speed data transmission in structured cabling and rack environments. With OM4 graded fiber and a 50/125 µm core/cladding geometry, the cable supports full duplex links and is suitable for short- to medium-range multimode applications where higher bandwidth and lower modal dispersion are required. The cable uses an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other, providing compatibility with a wide range of transceivers, patch panels and active equipment.

Advantages

This duplex fiber cable offers improved bandwidth and reduced signal attenuation compared with lower-grade multimode fibers, making it appropriate for 10 GbE and above over short distances. The LC-to-SC connector combination simplifies connectivity between equipment with differing port types. The 2 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-equipment connections while minimizing excess slack and preserving signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, servers and patch panels within data centers
• Connecting optical transceivers to fiber patch panels or media converters
• Structured cabling in enterprise network closets and telecom rooms
• Short-distance high-bandwidth multimode links such as 10 GbE and 40 GbE breakout scenarios

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector A: LC (duplex)
• Connector B: SC (duplex)
• Mode: Duplex multimode
• Length: 2 m
• Typical applications: Data center patching, short-reach multimode links

How to use

Inspect connectors and cable for visible damage before installation. Remove dust caps from LC and SC connectors and insert the LC connector into the appropriate LC port and the SC connector into the SC adapter or port until a secure connection is achieved. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and strain; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fiber to prevent increased loss. Test the link using suitable optical test equipment after installation to verify attenuation and connectivity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fiber cable in a clean environment and always replace protective dust caps when connectors are not in use. For optimal performance in high-density or high-speed applications, use OM4 fiber for runs within its supported distance limits and follow standard best practices for cable management and connector cleaning.
