AI-generated summary
For £12.08 ex‑VAT, this StarTech LC/LC multimode fibre jumper is a sensible “just get it working” buy if you’re patching between two like-for-like multimode endpoints in a comms rack/patch panel setup. The LSZH jacket is a practical choice for UK office environments where you’ll care about lower-smoke characteristics, and the 2m length is spot-on for clean patching without leaving you with a big coil of excess cable. In day-to-day installs and moves/adds/changes, this kind of ready-made jumper saves time versus wrestling with bulk fibre and terminations.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it if there’s any chance you’re mixing multimode and single-mode, or if the distances involved aren’t short patch runs (because fibre type and link design matter more than the brand on the label). Also, “cheap and cheerful” is usually true only if your terminations are treated gently—avoid sharp bends and don’t yank it like copper. If you need something more robust for frequent re-patching, longer runs, or you’re unsure about the fibre type at either end, spend the effort confirming compatibility first; otherwise you’ll end up paying twice in rework.
