What this cable is and who it suits

The StarTech A50FBLCLC3 is a 9.8 ft OM3 multimode duplex patch cable with LC male connectors on both ends. It uses 50/125 µm laser-optimised fibre rated for 10 Gb speeds and carries an LSZH jacket for low-smoke, zero-halogen fire safety. The aqua colour identifies it as OM3 in structured cabling. It is built for 10 Gigabit high-speed network environments using 850 nm VCSEL sources.

What to verify before ordering

Confirm that your transceivers or switch ports accept LC duplex connectors and are designed for multimode 50/125 µm fibre. The link must operate at 850 nm to match the cable’s laser optimisation. Ensure the 9.8 ft length fits the rack or patch-panel run without excess slack. Check that local building codes require LSZH-rated cable, as the jacket meets that specification.

Build quality and daily implications

The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke if the cable is ever exposed to fire, making it suitable for restrictive building codes. Duplex LC connectors snap securely into compatible ports, simplifying moves, adds and changes in dense panels. Aqua sheathing lets technicians identify OM3 links at a glance during audits. The 2000 MHz bandwidth supports reliable 10 Gb throughput across the full 9.8 ft span.

Questions about this item

Does the 9.8 ft LC duplex cable arrive with both ends terminated, or must I buy connectors separately?

Both ends are factory-terminated with LC male connectors, so the patch cable is ready to use without additional parts.

Should I choose this OM3 50/125 aqua cable or a different fibre type for my 10 Gb network?

This OM3 50/125 µm multimode cable is rated for 10 Gb speeds and is laser-optimised for 850 nm VCSEL sources, matching typical 10 Gb short-reach transceivers.

What does the 2000 MHz figure mean when the cable is installed in a real link?

The 2000 MHz·km bandwidth supports 10 Gb Ethernet over the full 9.8 ft length with ample margin for connector loss.
