LC/UPC-LC/UPC OM3 Duplex Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cable – 3M

The LC/UPC-LC/UPC-OM3-DX-2.0-3M is a high-performance duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet, data center, server, storage, and telecommunications applications. It features OM3 50/125μm multimode optical fiber with LC/UPC duplex connectors on both ends, a 2.0mm cable diameter, and a total length of 3 meters.

OM3 50/125μm Multimode Fiber

The cable uses laser-optimized OM3 50/125μm multimode fiber, designed for high-bandwidth optical networking. OM3 fiber is widely deployed with 850nm VCSEL-based optical transceivers in enterprise networks, data centers, server rooms, and storage networks.

Duplex LC/UPC to LC/UPC Connectors

Both ends feature duplex LC connectors with UPC polished interfaces. The compact LC connector design provides high port density, making this cable particularly suitable for switches, servers, SFP/SFP+ transceivers, fiber patch panels, and other high-density networking equipment.

3-Meter Cable with 2.0mm Diameter

With a length of 3 meters and an approximate cable diameter of 2.0mm, this patch cable is suitable for short-distance connections inside racks, between adjacent racks, and between network equipment and fiber patch panels.

High-Speed Network Applications

OM3 multimode fiber is commonly used for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed optical network applications. With appropriate 10GBASE-SR equipment, OM3 fiber supports 10GbE transmission distances of up to approximately 300 meters at 850nm.
