Leviton Telcom 5LDLC-M05 Duplex Lc Lc Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 5LDLC-M05 is a duplex LC to LC fiber optic patch cable designed for multimode network installations. Built on 50-micron (OM2 or higher class) multimode fiber, this cable delivers reliable optical signal transmission between active equipment, patch panels, and distribution frames. At 5 meters in length, it suits rack-to-rack and in-cabinet runs in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and structured cabling environments. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers. The duplex configuration carries simultaneous bidirectional traffic over two fiber strands, making it appropriate for Gigabit and Fast Ethernet optical links.

This patch cable is suited for use in enterprise data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and campus backbone applications where multimode fiber infrastructure is already in place. The LC connector format is the standard choice for high-density fiber panels and SFP-based switch ports. The 5-meter length accommodates typical horizontal runs inside a rack bay or between adjacent cabinets. It ships as a single unit and is ready for immediate installation without field termination.

Key Features

• Duplex LC to LC connector configuration supports full bidirectional optical links
• 50-micron multimode fiber core for compatibility with OM2, OM3, and OM4 infrastructure
• 5-meter cable length suits in-rack and adjacent-cabinet runs
• Pre-terminated ends eliminate field splicing and reduce installation time
• Designed for high-density fiber patch panel environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental patch cord for structured cabling systems using 50-micron multimode fiber with LC-style port interfaces.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure contractors typically install fiber patch cables. Before connecting or disconnecting LC connectors, power down or disable the associated optical transceiver port where possible to avoid direct exposure to laser emissions. Keep dust caps on unused connectors and inspect ferrule end-faces for contamination before mating. Follow TIA-568 bend-radius guidelines to avoid signal loss from fiber stress.
