Patch Cord LC-LC Multi Mode OM3 DX 25M

The Netsys NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-OM3-25M is an enterprise-grade Multimode (OM3) Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cord engineered for high-bandwidth data transmission over extended distances. At 25 meters (approx. 82 feet), this laser-optimized cable provides the reach and speed necessary for 10-Gigabit and 40-Gigabit Ethernet backbones in large data centers and corporate campuses.

Key Features

• OM3 Laser-Optimized Fiber: Features a 50/125µm core specifically designed for use with 850nm VCSELs (lasers). It supports 10 Gbps data rates up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gbps up to 100 meters, future-proofing your network for high-demand applications.

• Extended 25m Reach: This substantial length is ideal for connecting core networking equipment across different server rooms, linking non-adjacent racks, or routing through long overhead cable trays and under-floor conduits.

• Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) Polish: Both ends are equipped with blue LC connectors featuring a UPC finish.¹ This precision manufacturing ensures an exceptionally low insertion loss (≤ 0.3dB), which is critical for maintaining signal strength over longer fiber runs.

• Aqua Jacket Identification: The Aqua jacket is the industry-standard color for OM3 fiber, allowing network technicians to immediately identify the cable as 10G-capable compared to legacy OM1/OM2 (orange) lines.²

• LSZH Construction: The jacket is made from Low Smoke Zero Halogen material, which reduces the amount of toxic and corrosive gas emitted during combustion—making it safer for use in poorly ventilated areas or plenum spaces.
