Product Overview
AI-generated summary
For £18.46 ex-VAT for a 5m LC/UPC OM4 LC-to-LC fibre jumper, this is a pretty sensible “small job” cable—exactly the kind of thing you buy when you need the link to be clean, correctly terminated, and already tested/ready to drop into patch panels. The OM4 part is the right sweet spot for modern short-reach networking (think 40G/100G optics in the same rack/adjacent area), and the low-loss/LSZH angle matters in real offices where you’d rather not have brittle cable jackets or unpleasant fumes. If your patching run is short and you don’t want to mess around with field termination, this is good value.
I wouldn’t buy it if you’re building something longer than a simple patch run, or if you’re unsure about your fibre type and polishing/connector standard—multimode OM4 with LC/UPC is common, but not universal. Also, 5m is a narrow use-case: if you need flexibility, it can be cheaper and less wasteful to plan rack-to-rack runs properly rather than repeatedly ordering patch lengths. In short: great for server/rack patching and quick replacements; not great as a “general purpose” fibre solution if your distances or standards aren’t already nailed down.
