Orange duplex OM1 fibre patch cable SC to ST connectors 5m

Cable Leader

Cable Leader OM1 SC to ST Fibre Optic Cable 5m 16ft 62.5/125 Duplex Orange

SKU CH-4VA2-4ED3A

A 5-metre OM1 multimode duplex patch cable with SC to ST connectors, built on Corning fiber for 1000BASE-SX and 10GBASE-SR links

  • ColorOrange
  • Length16 - 20 ft.
  • Connector Number2
  • OM1 multimode supports 1 Gb and 10 G short-reach links
  • Genuine Corning fiber delivers consistent optical performance across installations
  • SC/UPC and ST/UPC ceramic ferrules give secure, low-loss mating
  • OFNR riser-rated jacket suits in-building and data-center runs
  • Duplex 62.5/125 µm construction keeps transmit and receive fibers paired

Ready-to-install 5m OM1 duplex jumper

The Cable Leader OM1 SC-to-ST patch cable is a factory-terminated multimode duplex assembly built on Corning 62.5/125 µm fiber with an orange OFNR riser-rated jacket. It arrives pre-polished and ready for immediate use in data-centre, SAN and enterprise backbone links.

Precision ceramic ferrules with push-pull latching

Each end carries a UPC-polished ceramic ferrule inside a push-pull SC or ST housing that locks securely into transceivers, switches, routers, media converters and patch panels. The duplex construction keeps transmit and receive fibres paired and correctly oriented for repeatable, low-loss mating.

Verify OM1 multimode and SC/ST port types first

Confirm that both endpoints accept multimode OM1 62.5/125 µm fibre and present SC and ST receptacles respectively; the cable will not mate with single-mode or LC/MPO interfaces. Ensure the 5-metre reach matches the rack-to-rack or cabinet-to-cabinet distance in your installation.

Questions about this item

Does the OM1 62.5/125 µm fiber need periodic cleaning or replacement?

The ceramic ferrules on the SC and ST connectors should be inspected and cleaned with a lint-free wipe and isopropyl alcohol before each mating; the cable jacket and fiber are passive and do not wear out under normal indoor use.

What is the first limit reached on a sustained 10GBASE-SR link over this cable?

The 5-metre length is well within the OM1 short-reach distance for 10GBASE-SR, so the practical limit will be the transceiver budget or patch-panel loss budget rather than the cable itself.

Does the OFNR jacket or Corning fiber generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day operation?

No — the cable is entirely passive with no active components, so it produces no heat and no audible noise regardless of how long data passes through it.
