  • 3-metre zipcord length suits rack-to-rack and patch-panel runs

3m OM3 Multimode Fibre Cable LC/UPC to SC/UPC

This three-metre OM3 multimode fibre cable connects equipment with LC/UPC and SC/UPC ports. It supports full-duplex transmission at 10, 40 and 100 Gbps. The 50/125 micron core/cladding diameter suits short-range enterprise and data-centre links. A low-smoke zero-halogen jacket meets fire-safety requirements for indoor installations.

Suits short-reach 10 to 100 Gbps links

Network engineers patching switches, transceivers or patch panels that use different connector types will find this cable convenient. It is not for single-mode infrastructure, nor for links that require APC polishing or outdoor-rated sheathing. Buyers needing longer reach or single-mode performance should look at other cable types.

Verify both ends use UPC polish

Confirm that the LC and SC ports on your equipment are specified for UPC finish and OM3 multimode operation. Ensure the link budget matches the 50/125 micron fibre at the intended data rate. Check that the LSZH jacket complies with local building codes for the planned routing path.

Questions about this item

What type of transceiver ports must my switch or server have for this LC/UPC to SC/UPC cable to connect?

The cable uses LC/UPC and SC/UPC connectors, so you need matching LC and SC transceiver ports on your equipment.

Will this OM3 50/125 cable work with my existing OM1 or OM2 multimode patch panels?

OM3 50/125 fibre is backwards compatible with OM1 and OM2 links, but the overall channel will be limited to the lowest grade installed.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering 100 Gbps full duplex after installation?

Verify the link negotiates 100 Gbps full duplex on both ends and run a traffic test or optical power meter check to confirm performance.
