£15.67 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
For £13.08 ex-VAT for a 3m LC–LC multimode jumper, this is the sort of “small spend, big sanity” cable you buy when you just need things to work reliably between racks or nearby patch panels. StarTech jumpers are usually consistent in termination and don’t tend to cause the annoying intermittent link issues you sometimes see with cheaper unknown-branded fibre. The LC/UPC uniboot style is also genuinely practical in the real world: it’s easier to handle and you get more predictable patching than older-style boots.
That said, don’t buy it if you’re even slightly unsure your network is multimode/OM4 and LC/UPC. The biggest reason fibre purchases become expensive isn’t the price of the cable—it’s realising it’s the wrong fibre type or connector polish for the transceivers you’re using. If you’re building or maintaining an OM4-based 40G/100G multimode setup (common in short-reach data centre runs), this is good value and a sensible choice for spare cables. If your link budget or optics are expecting singlemode, or you need a different connector standard/polish, skip it and match the optics/cabling requirements first.
