Microconnect LCPCSCPC 5m 9125 SM Fibre Optic Cable – Yellow

The Microconnect LCPCSCPC 5m 9125 SM fibre optic cable is a high‑performance, single‑mode optical transmission solution designed for demanding networking and data‑center environments. Its compact 5‑meter length offers flexibility in rack‑to‑rack or patch‑panel connections while maintaining superior signal integrity.

Key Technical Features

• Connector Configuration: LC male to SC male (LC/PC‑SC/PC) – this combination provides a secure, low‑loss mating interface that is ideal for both patching and permanent installations.
• Core Size: 9 µm diameter single‑mode core (SM) – enabling long‑haul transmission with minimal dispersion over the 5 meter span.
• Operating Temperature Range: -40 °C to +85 °C – suitable for harsh industrial, data‑center, and outdoor applications where temperature extremes are common.
• Full Duplex Capability: Yes – the cable supports simultaneous bidirectional data flow, maximizing bandwidth utilization in high‑speed networks.
• Colour Coding: Yellow jacket – facilitates quick identification and segregation of cables within complex cabling systems.

Performance Characteristics

The 9125 SM fibre optic cable delivers exceptional optical performance thanks to its low‑attenuation core and precise manufacturing tolerances. The LC/PC to SC/PC transition is engineered to minimize insertion loss, ensuring that signal strength remains within acceptable limits for high‑speed Ethernet, InfiniBand, or other optical protocols.

With a single‑mode design, the cable supports data rates up to 10 Gbps and beyond, making it compatible with modern networking standards such as Copper Ethernet (Cat6a) and InfiniBand. The yellow jacket not only aids in visual identification but also provides a protective layer against environmental factors like moisture and mechanical abrasion.

Installation & Compatibility

Installing the Microconnect LCPCSCPC cable is straightforward:

1. Prepare the Terminals: Ensure that both LC and SC connectors are clean and free of dust. Use a lint‑free cloth or dedicated cleaning kit.
2. Insert the Cable: Align the LC male connector with the LC port on the patch panel or transceiver, then insert the cable until it clicks into place. Repeat for the SC side.
3. Secure Connections: Verify that each connector is fully seated and locked to prevent accidental disconnection during operation.

The cable’s male/male configuration allows direct patching between devices equipped with matching LC or SC ports, eliminating the need for additional adapters. It is fully compatible with a wide range of optical transceivers, switches, and routers that support single‑mode fibre.

Applications & Use Cases

• Data Centers: Ideal for inter‑rack or intra‑rack connectivity where high bandwidth and low latency are critical.
• Telecommunications: Suitable for backbone links, fiber‑to‑the‑home (FTTH) deployments, and other telecom infrastructure requiring reliable single‑mode transmission.
• Industrial Automation: The wide temperature tolerance makes it suitable for factory automation networks that operate in variable environmental conditions.
• Research & Development: Provides a stable optical link for laboratory setups, test benches, and experimental networking projects.
