Technical Specifications

OM3 Multimode Fiber for High-Speed Networks

OM3 multimode fiber is widely used in modern enterprise networks, server rooms, and data centers where reliable high-speed data transmission is required. OM3 fiber optic patch cords are suitable for connecting network equipment and building high-performance fiber optic links within buildings and data center environments.

When selecting a fiber optic patch cable, the fiber type, connector type, and optical transceivers must be compatible. The UPC-30LCLC(MM)D(ON)S is designed for OM3 multimode systems using LC interfaces.

Advantages of LC/UPC Connectors

LC is a compact fiber optic connector widely used in modern networking and telecommunications equipment. Its small form factor allows high port density in fiber patch panels, network switches, and other professional networking devices.

UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polishing provides close physical contact between the fiber ends and is commonly used in professional fiber optic networking systems.

Why Choose an LC-LC OM3 Duplex 30 m Fiber Patch Cord?

The LC/UPC–LC/UPC OM3 Multimode Duplex 30 m Fiber Optic Patch Cord provides a convenient ready-to-use connection between compatible fiber optic devices. Since LC/UPC connectors are factory-installed on both ends, no additional fiber termination or connector installation is required.

The 30-meter length makes this fiber patch cable particularly suitable for large server rooms, offices, telecommunications facilities, and data centers where networking equipment is installed at a considerable distance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does OM3 mean?

OM3 is a category of multimode optical fiber optimized for high-speed fiber optic networking applications and widely used in enterprise networks and data centers.

What does Duplex mean?

Duplex means that the patch cord contains two optical fibers. In typical network applications, one fiber is used for transmitting data and the other for receiving data.

What is the difference between LC/UPC and LC/APC?

LC/UPC and LC/APC connectors use different fiber end-face polishing methods. UPC uses a physical contact polish, while APC uses an angled polish. Compatibility with the connected equipment should always be checked before installation.

Can this fiber patch cord be used with SFP modules?

Yes. The patch cord can be used with compatible multimode SFP or SFP+ transceivers equipped with LC interfaces. Always verify the required fiber type and specifications of the optical transceiver before installation.

Does this fiber optic patch cord require splicing?

No. The cable is factory-terminated with LC/UPC connectors on both ends and is ready for connection to compatible fiber optic equipment.
