Aqua blue duplex fibre patch cable with LC connectors, 8 metres long

Enfain

Enfain OM3 LC-LC Duplex Multimode Fibre Optic Cable 8m Aqua Blue

SKU CH-9CK0-RR284

An 8 m aqua duplex patch cord with OM3 multimode fibre, LC connectors on both ends, 3.0 mm PVC jacket and ceramic ferrules for 10 Gbit links at 850 nm

Length 8m

  • OM3 core supports 10 Gbps links
  • Typical insertion loss .2 dB preserves signal strength
  • Return loss exceeds 38 dB cuts reflections
  • Ceramic ferrules rated for 1000 mating cycles
  • 0 mm PVC jacket bends to 330 mm radius

8-metre OM3 duplex fibre patch cord

This eight-metre duplex patch cord uses OM3 multimode fibre with LC connectors on both ends. It is built for 10-gigabit Ethernet links between switches, servers or storage arrays in data-centre or enterprise racks. The aqua jacket identifies the OM3 grade at a glance.

Typical insertion loss of 0.2 dB

The cable meets a typical insertion loss of 0.2 dB and a maximum of 0.3 dB, while return loss exceeds 38 dB. A 3.0 mm PVC jacket protects the fibres during routing, and the assembly is rated for 1000 mating cycles. Operating temperature spans -20 °C to +60 °C.

850 nm wavelength for 10 GbE over OM3

The 850 nm transmission window matches OM3 fibre specifications for 10-gigabit multimode links. Buyers needing single-mode reach, higher bandwidth grades such as OM4 or OM5, or connector types other than LC will need a different cable.

Questions about this item

How do I install the LC duplex connectors on this OM3 cable and what step is often missed?

Push each LC connector straight into the port until the latch clicks; the step often missed is removing the protective dust caps from both ferrule tips before insertion.

What maintenance or replacement will this 8 m OM3 patch cord need over time?

The ceramic ferrules are rated for 1000 insertion and removal cycles; plan to replace the cable once that mating limit is reached or if return loss drops below 38 dB.

What is the first limit that appears when this cable runs at 10 Gbps continuously?

At 850 nm wavelength the typical insertion loss is 0.2 dB and the maximum is 0.3 dB, so accumulated attenuation becomes the first sustained-use constraint.
