LC UPC to LC UPC Simplex OM5 Fiber Patch Cable

Projects in the Philippines benefit from keeping the configuration, branch identification and installation requirement consistent across every participating site. This OM5 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM5 glass and optically tested as a complete item. The single-fiber design suits bidirectional optics, monitoring taps and any optical path that carries traffic over one strand.

Product Highlights

• Bend Insensitive Fiber with 7.5mm Min. Bend Radius
• Precision Zirconia Ferrule Connectors Ensure Low Loss
• Flame-Retardant Riser (OFNR) for Vertical and Floor-to-Floor Installations
• Color-Coded Cable Jacket for Easy Identification
• Ideal for Unidirectional Data Transmission

Specifications

OM5 and wideband multimode

OM5 extends the multimode idea into the wideband range: beside 850nm, the fiber carries wavelengths up to 953nm, which lets SWDM optics put four lanes on a single duplex pair. An optical path that would need eight fibers on OM4 runs on two with OM5 and the right optics, which changes the fiber count arithmetic of a whole row.

Where OM5 makes sense today

The natural home of OM5 is the 40G and 100G SWDM4 interface and the newer 400G SR4.2 specification. For operators planning those interfaces, OM5 patching future-proofs the plant without changing connector practice. Project teams in the Philippines can carry this requirement into the site documentation used by each contractor.

Length Options

Standard size options cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), with customized length provided beyond the list. Specifying the measured channel length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the mating connectors.

Quality Control and Testing

Each completed assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on each cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The fiber cable ships with dust caps on both connectors and the test result provided on order.

Ordering and Factory Support

Refer to this design by connector pair, fiber mode and length when submitting a request for a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labeling or project packaging, send the need with the inquiry and the factory will validate the build before release to production. Customers in the Philippines can include multi-site labeling or documentation requirements when requesting a project quotation.
