5m OM3 ST to SC Fibre Optic Cable Multimode 50/125 Violet
OM3 is laser-optimised 50/125 multimode fibre, designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300m and 40/100 Gigabit links up to 100m with parallel optics, the standard choice for server rooms and building backbones.
This duplex lead has two fibres, one to send and one to receive, so it connects a pair of ports in one go. ST connectors have a round bayonet fitting that twists to lock, found on many established fibre installations, while sC connectors are square push-pull plugs common on patch panels, media converters and older switches. The LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket suits offices, data centres and public buildings.
A 5m lead reaches between neighbouring racks or from a patch panel to equipment across a comms room. Multimode and single mode fibre must not be mixed, so match the grade to your existing cabling and transceivers.
