OM3 LCST Duplex Multimode Patch Cable | LC to ST | Aqua | 1m to 10m

A high-performance OM3 LC-ST Duplex Fibre Patch Lead designed for connecting modern LC-equipped devices (switches, transceivers) to legacy ST connector infrastructure in high-speed data networks. This hybrid patch cable enables seamless migration between different generations of fibre equipment while maintaining full 10G/40G/100G capability.

Key Specifications & Features

✅ Advantages

• No Adapters Needed: Eliminates extra connection points and potential failure points

• Cost-Effective Migration: Avoids complete infrastructure replacement

• Guaranteed Performance: Factory-terminated and tested for optimal performance

• Time-Saving: Direct connection without intermediary components

⚠️ Considerations

• ST connectors require proper locking: Ensure bayonet is fully engaged

• Higher loss than LC-LC: Due to different ferrule sizes (1.25mm vs 2.5mm)

• ST connectors larger: Take more space in high-density environments
