StarTech.com 25m (82ft) LC to LC OM5 Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cable - Duplex Zipcord, 40G/100G Support, LSZH Jacket

StarTech.com 25m (82ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM5 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable, 50/125µm Duplex Zipcord, 40G/100G, LSZH Fiber Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com LCLCL-25M-OM5-FIBER is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for advanced 40/100 Gbps network environments. With a length of approximately 82 feet, this duplex zipcord cable features LC to LC connectors with UPC polishing, ensuring low insertion loss and enhanced return loss, which is critical for maintaining signal integrity in high-density deployments. The OM5 multi-mode fiber supports an extended wavelength range of 850-953nm, enabling SWDM (Shortwave Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology that significantly increases channel capacity and improves overall network performance. This makes it an ideal choice for data centers, server rooms, SANs, and high-speed network infrastructure needing reliable and scalable fiber connectivity.
Constructed with bend-insensitive fiber housed in a durable Aramid-reinforced jacket, the cable can handle tight bends down to a 3cm radius when unloaded and a 6cm radius when loaded, facilitating flexible installation in complex environments. The green LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen) jacket provides fire safety benefits by emitting minimal smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire, making it suitable for enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces such as aircraft, trains, or industrial facilities. Each cable undergoes rigorous testing for insertion loss performance, with test reports included to guarantee compliance with industry standards like TIA/EIA-568, ensuring reliable data transmission.
The cable's compatibility spans 10G, 40G, and 100G networks, supporting backward compatibility with OM4 and OM3 fiber standards. Its high micro-bending resistance allows for tight bends around fiber switches, servers, and various modules, making it versatile for different high-performance applications. The LC/UPC connectors feature improved return loss over older PC polish methods, and the cable's color-coded connectors aid in polarity management during installation. Designed for safety and durability, this fiber optic patch cable is an excellent choice for extending high-speed network connectivity with confidence and compliance with environmental standards.Backed by a lifetime warranty, the StarTech.com fiber optic cable combines quality construction, safety features, and broad compatibility to meet the demanding requirements of modern high-speed networks. Its support for SWDM and extended wavelength range ensures future-proof performance, while its environmentally friendly LSZH jacket aligns with safety regulations. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying new high-bandwidth systems, this OM5 multimode fiber patch cable provides a reliable, scalable, and safe solution for demanding network environments.
