3M LC-LC OM3 Duplex Patch Lead | LSZH

The 3M LC-LC OM3 Duplex Fibre Optic Patch Lead is engineered for high-speed, high-bandwidth data transmission, making it ideal for modern data centres, enterprise backbones, server rooms, and telecommunications networks.

This 3-metre duplex patch lead features LC connectors on both ends and is constructed with OM3 50/125 µm multimode fibre, capable of supporting 10Gbps Ethernet up to 300 metres and 40Gbps Ethernet up to 100 metres.

The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket enhances fire safety by emitting minimal smoke and zero halogen when exposed to high heat or fire, reducing the risk of toxic exposure in enclosed environments such as buildings and tunnels.

With an aqua-coloured sheath to signify OM3 compatibility, this cable delivers consistent low insertion loss and high return loss for optimal signal performance in demanding network environments.
