Optical Cable Corp. D5LC-LC-1MQ Lc Lc OM4 Duplex Patch Cable

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. D5LC-LC-1MQ is an OM4 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable with LC connectors on both ends, finished in aqua jacket color per OM4 standard identification. At 1 meter in length, this cable is suited for short-reach connections inside enclosures, patch panels, and equipment racks. OM4 fiber supports high-bandwidth applications and is commonly used in data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications closets. Installation is handled by network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors working on structured cabling systems.

This patch cable is used in multimode fiber optic network installations where LC-to-LC connections are required at short distances. Typical applications include connecting switches, transceivers, fiber distribution panels, and active equipment in rack environments. The duplex configuration carries simultaneous transmit and receive signals over two fibers. The aqua jacket color identifies this as an OM4 cable, following TIA-598 color coding conventions for easy visual management in dense fiber environments.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber for high-bandwidth, short-reach applications
• LC to LC duplex connector configuration for simultaneous TX and RX
• 1 meter length suited for within-rack and patch panel connections
• Aqua jacket color follows TIA-598 OM4 fiber identification standard
• Duplex construction eliminates the need for separate transmit and receive cables

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OM4 multimode duplex LC-to-LC patch cable compatible with LC-type fiber optic ports on switches, transceivers, media converters, and fiber patch panels requiring multimode connectivity.

Installation Notes

This cable is installed by low-voltage cabling contractors or network technicians familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, and do not pull by the connectors. Inspect and clean LC connector ferrules before mating to ensure signal integrity. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local low-voltage codes when routing fiber in structured cabling systems.
