STARTECH LCLCL10MOM5FIBER OM5 LC-LC duplex fibre optic cable 10m

SKU CH-G07Z-4VA15 MPN LCLCL10MOM5FIBER

OM5 duplex patch cable links 40G and 100G networks over 10 metres with SWDM support from 850 to 953 nm

  • OM5 cable handles 40G and 100G speeds for high-bandwidth networks
  • SWDM support across 850-953nm VCSEL extends performance beyond OM4
  • Ceramic ferrules align fibers precisely to minimise insertion loss
  • LSZH jacket emits low smoke and zero halogen for safer installations
  • Backward compatible with OM4 and OM3 10G networks for legacy flexibility

OM5 LC-LC Duplex Cable for 40G/100G Networks

This OM5 duplex fibre optic patch cable connects 40G and 100G networks using LC connectors on both ends. It supports SWDM across an 850-953 nm wavelength range with VCSEL sources. The 50/125 µm multimode fibre is backward compatible with OM4 and OM3 10G environments. A 10 metre length suits rack-to-rack or cross-connect runs.

Simple LC Connector Installation

Ceramic ferrules on each LC connector align the fibre cores precisely to minimise insertion loss. UPC polishing on the fibre ends improves return loss compared with older PC polishing. Push-pull LC connectors seat securely in high-density panels without tools. The LSZH jacket is flexible for routing but must not be bent tighter than the cable's minimum bend radius.

Verify Port Type and Distance Budget

Confirm both endpoints accept LC duplex multimode connectors before ordering. Check that your transceivers operate at 850 nm or 1300 nm and support the required reach at 40G or 100G. Ensure the 10 metre length fits the planned path with slack for management. The LSZH jacket meets low-smoke requirements for plenum or riser spaces.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 10m OM5 LC-LC duplex cable is performing correctly after installation?

Confirm link lights show 40G or 100G throughput on both ends and run an insertion-loss test; ceramic ferrules and UPC polish should yield low loss across the 850-953 nm VCSEL range.

What comes with the LCLCL10MOM5FIBER cable and what must be sourced separately?

The box contains the 10m OM5 50/125µm duplex patch cord with LC UPC connectors on both ends; transceivers, patch panels and cleaning supplies are not included.

When should I choose this OM5 version over OM3 or OM4 for my 50/125µm network?

Select this OM5 cable when deploying 40G or 100G SWDM links that need the extended 850-953 nm wavelength window; it remains backward compatible with OM3 and OM4 10G infrastructure.
