IBM ACSS – 10m LC-LC OM3 MMF Cable

Detailed Description:

The IBM ACSS 10 meter LC-LC OM3 Multimode Fiber (MMF) Cable is a high-performance, fiber optic cable designed for use in networking and data communication applications that require high bandwidth and speed. The OM3 rating of this cable indicates that it is optimized for laser-based transmission, making it suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet at lengths up to 300 meters. It is also capable of supporting higher speeds such as 40G and 100G Ethernet up to shorter distances, typically 100 meters, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of data center configurations. The LC (Lucent Connector) connectors on both ends of the cable feature a compact, push/pull design that facilitates easy insertion and removal, while ensuring a secure connection. The use of Multimode Fiber allows for multiple modes of light to propagate through the cable, which is ideal for short to medium distance transmissions. This characteristic of MMF cables, combined with their relatively lower cost compared to Singlemode Fiber cables, makes them a popular choice for many intra-data center connectivity applications. The IBM ACSS LC-LC OM3 MMF Cable is built to IBM’s strict quality standards, ensuring high reliability and optimal performance in demanding environments. Whether deploying new infrastructure or upgrading existing systems, this fiber optic cable provides a cost-effective solution for high-speed data transfer and communications.
