OM3 is laser-optimised 50/125 multimode fibre, rated for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 metres. This 15m duplex patch lead joins LC ports to ST ports.
One end is LC (small push-and-latch, used on SFP modules and dense panels) and the other is ST (round bayonet twist-lock, found on older installs), so it bridges equipment with different connector types. Duplex means two fibres in one lead, one for each direction of traffic.
Match it to the grade already in your panels and to multimode (SR or SX) transceivers. The jacket is LSZH for indoor use in offices and data centres. Jacket colour is aqua, the usual colour for OM3.
At 15m it is suited to links between racks or across a comms room.
