MSS Fibre ST-LC DUPLEX OM1 PATCHLEAD – 5 MTR DSTLC5M-MM

Description

Reliable Fibre Optic Connectivity

Featuring an ST connector at one end and an LC connector at the other, this duplex patch lead supports connections between compatible fibre optic devices with different connector interfaces. Its OM1 multimode fibre configuration is suitable for supported Ethernet networking applications, including Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet, subject to the requirements of the installed network equipment.

Factory-terminated connectors help simplify installation by providing ready-to-use connection points without requiring on-site connector termination. This makes the lead a convenient option for network installations, equipment upgrades, and maintenance work.

Durable, Low-Smoke Cable Construction

The patch lead features a 2mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath. This cable jacket material is designed to reduce smoke and halogen emissions compared with conventional halogen-containing cable materials when exposed to fire. The orange jacket also makes the cable easier to identify during installation, inspection, and maintenance.

Rated for up to 500 mating cycles in accordance with IEC 61300-2-2, the connectors are designed to withstand repeated connection and disconnection during routine equipment changes and servicing.

Practical for Commercial Network Installations

With its 5-metre length, the MSS Fibre patch lead offers flexibility when connecting compatible network equipment, optical interfaces, and patch panels. The duplex configuration accommodates two optical fibre paths, making it suitable for applications requiring separate transmit and receive connections.

For electrical contractors, telecommunications installers, and maintenance teams, this patch lead provides a practical component for structured cabling projects and ongoing network support. Always confirm connector compatibility, fibre type, and equipment requirements before installation.
