MSS Fibre LC-LC DUPLEX OM3 PATCHLEAD – 5 MTR DLCLC5M-MM3

Description

Reliable Fibre Optic Connectivity for Network Installations

The MSS Fibre DLCLC5M-MM3 is an OM3 multimode fibre optic patch lead intended for use in structured cabling and network environments. Its LC-to-LC connector arrangement supports connections between compatible fibre optic ports, making it suitable for patching between active equipment and fibre distribution panels.

The duplex configuration accommodates transmit and receive connections within a single cable assembly, helping keep fibre connections organised in equipment racks, telecommunications rooms and data centre installations. Its 5-metre length offers flexibility when connecting equipment positioned at a distance from the relevant patch panel or termination point.

OM3 Multimode Fibre for Data Communications

Designed for compatible multimode fibre systems, this patch lead supports network applications such as Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, subject to the requirements and specifications of the installed network equipment.

The factory-terminated connectors provide a ready-made cable assembly for patching applications without requiring field termination. The aqua-coloured jacket also makes the lead easier to identify within fibre installations, supporting organised cable management when working with multiple connections. For electricians and network technicians, selecting a patch lead with the correct fibre mode, connector type, length and configuration helps ensure compatibility with the existing infrastructure.

LSZH Sheath for Indoor Cabling Environments

The cable features a 2 mm low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) sheath. This material is intended to reduce smoke and halogen-containing gas emissions compared with conventional halogenated cable materials when exposed to fire, making it a useful consideration for suitable indoor installations.

Rated for up to 500 mating cycles in accordance with IEC 61300-2-2, the patch lead is designed for repeated connection and disconnection within its specified limits. Its combination of OM3 multimode fibre, duplex LC connectors and a practical 5-metre length makes it a useful component for maintaining and expanding compatible fibre optic networks.
