Leviton Telcom 5LDCL-M01 OM3 Sc-lc Patch Cord 1M

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 5LDCL-M01 is a multimode OM3 fiber optic patch cord terminated with an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, with a length of approximately 1 meter. This patch cord is designed to carry high-bandwidth optical signals between active equipment, patch panels, and fiber distribution hardware in structured cabling systems. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals install this type of cord in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise network environments where OM3-grade performance is required.

This patch cord is suited for short-distance, high-speed fiber optic runs in both commercial and institutional installations. The SC-to-LC configuration makes it a common choice for connecting OM3-compatible transceivers, switches, and patch panels where the two connector types must interface. It is sold as an individual unit and is appropriate for new installation, system upgrades, or field replacement of damaged fiber jumpers.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• SC connector on one end, LC connector on the other for mixed-port connectivity
• 1-meter length suits short rack-to-rack or panel-to-equipment runs
• Single-unit packaging allows individual replacement without bulk purchasing
• Designed for use in structured cabling environments per industry standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation patch cord for OM3 multimode fiber optic systems utilizing SC and LC port interfaces in data center and telecommunications cabling infrastructure.

Installation Notes

This patch cord should be installed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with fiber optic handling practices. Before connecting, inspect both ferrules and clean them with an approved fiber optic cleaning tool to avoid signal loss from contamination. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable, and do not pull the cord by the fiber strand. TIA-568 standards apply to structured cabling installations where this cord is used.
