D-Link NCB-FM53D-LCSC-3 OM3 LC-SC Duplex 3M Patch Cord

D-Link NCB-FM53D-LCSC-3 Patch Cord

The D-Link OM3 Patch Cord facilitates high-speed data transmission across 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks using laser-optimized multimode fiber. This specific assembly utilizes 50/125 micron fiber cores to provide the necessary bandwidth for modern data center environments. The 3-meter length offers sufficient reach for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server interconnectivity within a localized infrastructure. Consequently, network engineers rely on this duplex solution to maintain signal integrity while minimizing attenuation across short-range optical links. The cable features an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other to bridge different hardware interface standards.

Key Features

• Laser-Optimized Multimode Fiber
  The OM3 classification supports 10GBASE-SR applications up to 300 meters using 850nm VCSEL sources.

• High-Quality Connector Construction

  • Zirconia ceramic ferrules ensure precise alignment and durability.
  • LC-SC duplex configuration allows for seamless integration between legacy and modern hardware.

• LSZH Outer Jacket
  The Low Smoke Zero Halogen material reduces toxic gas emissions during thermal decomposition.

• Stringent Performance Testing

  • Each unit undergoes insertion loss and return loss verification.
  • Compliance with TIA/EIA-568-C.3 standards guarantees interoperability.

Furthermore, the 50/125µm core diameter is specifically designed to handle higher data rates compared to traditional 62.5µm OM1 cables. Therefore, this medium is essential for migrating from 1Gbps to 10Gbps backbone speeds without replacing the entire physical layer. Additionally, the aqua-colored jacket serves as a standard visual identifier for OM3 cabling within high-density patching fields. This simplifies cable management and reduces the risk of cross-connecting mismatched fiber types during maintenance. Because the cable utilizes a duplex design, it supports simultaneous bidirectional data flow required for standard networking protocols. Moreover, the pull-proof jacket design ensures that mechanical stress does not compromise the internal glass fibers during installation in tight conduits.
