Black Box EFNT010-005M-LCLC OM3 LC-LC 5 m Fiber Patch Cable

Maintain dependable multimode connectivity where short, high-density links matter most. This Black Box OM3 duplex patch cable is built for 10 GbE environments that need clean routing, consistent optical performance, and simple identification in crowded racks. The 50/125 µm OM3 fiber supports LED or laser light sources, and Black Box notes bandwidth can increase to 2,000 MHz/km with a laser source. The LC-to-LC duplex design fits modern switches, servers, and patch panels that rely on compact connectors to preserve port density. An OFNR-rated PVC jacket supports riser applications, making it a practical choice for structured cabling runs between floors or within telecom spaces. At 5 m, it gives you enough reach for cabinet-to-cabinet connections without excess slack that complicates cable management. For teams standardizing on multimode fiber, this cable offers the right balance of performance, durability, and installation clarity. The aqua jacket helps distinguish OM3 from legacy orange OM1 cabling at a glance, reducing patching errors during moves, adds, and changes. Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, it is a strong fit for infrastructure teams that want a cable they can install once and trust for the long term.
