Optical Cable Corp. RFC-SC5G-2/3MM Sc Fiber Connector OM3

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. RFC-SC5G-2/3MM is an SC-style fiber optic connector designed for use with 2mm and 3mm OM3 multimode fiber cable. It provides a reliable, low-loss termination point in structured cabling systems, data centers, and telecommunications infrastructure. The connector accepts both 2mm and 3mm cable outer diameters, giving installers flexibility when working with different cable constructions. Licensed fiber optic technicians and structured cabling contractors use this type of connector when field-terminating multimode runs or completing patch panel assemblies in commercial and enterprise environments.

This connector is suited for OM3 multimode fiber installations in commercial buildings, data centers, and campus network infrastructure. OM3 supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications over standard multimode fiber. The dual 2mm and 3mm boot compatibility makes it practical for mixed-cable environments where different jacket sizes are encountered across the same installation project. It is typically installed by certified fiber optic technicians following TIA-568 cabling standards.

Key Features

• SC-style connector format for standard adapter and patch panel compatibility
• Accepts both 2mm and 3mm cable outer diameters in a single connector body
• Rated for OM3 multimode fiber for 10 Gigabit Ethernet support
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity ordering for termination projects

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style field-termination connector for OM3 multimode fiber optic cable with 2mm or 3mm outer jacket diameters, for use with standard SC-compatible adapters, panels, and equipment ports.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fiber optic technician using appropriate cleaving, polishing, and inspection tools. Fiber end-face preparation and cleanliness are critical to achieving acceptable insertion loss. Always inspect and clean connector end-faces before mating. Follow TIA-568 and manufacturer termination procedures throughout the installation process.
