Belden Inc. FP3LULU00M3 OM3 Lc Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FP3LULU00M3 is an OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable terminated with LC duplex connectors on both ends. It is designed for short-run, high-bandwidth fiber connections inside equipment rooms, data closets, and telecommunications enclosures. At 0.3 meters in length, this cable is suited for direct equipment-to-equipment links where rack-mount port density is high and cable management space is limited. Licensed low-voltage technicians and data cabling installers are the primary trades that handle this type of patch cable in structured cabling and network infrastructure work.

This patch cable is used in horizontal and backbone fiber plant terminations, patch panel to switch connections, and intra-rack fiber routing. The LC duplex form factor is common in modern SFP and SFP+ transceiver ports found in network switches, fiber channel storage equipment, and active optical equipment. The 0.3-meter length targets very short links between adjacent patch panels or between a panel and an immediately adjacent active device in the same rack unit space.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications over short distances
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for compatibility with high-density SFP and SFP+ ports
• 0.3-meter length minimizes cable slack in tight rack and enclosure environments
• Factory-terminated and tested, ready for immediate installation without field polishing
• Sold as individual unit (EA), one cable per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or add-on patch cable for fiber optic structured cabling systems requiring LC duplex to LC duplex OM3 multimode connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or data cabling technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Power down or place active ports in a safe state before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cables to avoid eye hazard from live laser sources. Clean connector end faces with an approved fiber optic cleaner before insertion. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and avoid kinking or crushing the cable jacket during routing.
