Enfain OM3 FC-FC Duplex Multimode Fiber Patch Cable 15m Aqua Blue

Enfain OM3 FC-FC Duplex Patch Cable

This 15-metre multimode fibre patch cable uses an OM3 10-gigabit core with FC connectors at both ends. It is built for 1 GbE, 10 GbE and 40 GbE links between switches, servers and storage arrays in data-centre racks. The aqua-blue 3.0 mm PVC jacket identifies the OM3 grade at a glance. Ceramic ferrules keep end-face geometry consistent over repeated mating.

Capacity and headroom at 850 nm

Typical insertion loss is 0.2 dB and maximum insertion loss is 0.3 dB, leaving ample margin for 10 GbE runs up to the standard OM3 reach. Return loss exceeds 38 dB, suppressing reflections that degrade high-speed signals. The cable supports 1 GbE, 10 GbE and 40 GbE simultaneously; it does not support 100 GbE or single-mode distances. Loss budget is consumed by connector pairs and any inline splices.

Build integration and physical constraints

Duplex FC connectors lock securely into standard FC bulkheads on switches, patch panels and server NICs. The 3.0 mm jacket tolerates a minimum bend radius of 330 mm, so routing through dense cable managers requires gradual curves. Operating temperature spans -20 °C to +60 °C, covering typical server-room and cabinet environments. Rated for 1000 mating cycles, the ferrules maintain performance through routine maintenance. The cable adds no active components and needs no power.
