Adafruit 2 in 1 Accessories Armoured LC-LC Duplex OM2 50M

50 metre armoured duplex OM2 fibre lead

This 50 metre LC to LC duplex patch cord uses OM2 multimode fibre with a 50/125 micron core. A flexible stainless-steel tube inside the LSZH jacket shields the glass from crushing and abrasion. The zip-cord construction keeps the two strands together for tidy routing. Ceramic ferrules of 1.25 mm ensure precise alignment at each end.

Indoor and sheltered outdoor links needing extra

Suits installers who want a rugged jumper for campus runs, data-centre cross-connects or building-to-building ducts where rodents or foot traffic are a risk. The weatherproof sheath handles sun and rain but the manufacturer advises against direct burial or aerial suspension. Users who need single-mode reach, higher bandwidth grades or cables rated for direct burial should choose a different product.

Armour type decides suitability

The internal stainless-steel armour provides mechanical protection without the stiffness of corrugated steel tape, so the cable remains flexible enough for patch panels and tight bends. If your installation requires a fully rodent-proof corrugated armour or a plenum-rated jacket, this construction will not meet those requirements.
