This 3m OM4 duplex lead uses high-bandwidth 50/125 multimode fibre that runs 10 Gigabit up to 400 metres and 40/100 Gigabit up to 150 metres.
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.
It is for multimode optics such as SR and SX modules, and should match the fibre grade of the rest of the link. The ferrules have a UPC polish. Each fibre is in a 3.0mm jacket. The jacket is LSZH for indoor use in offices and data centres.
At 3m it is long enough to patch across a rack or to the next one.
