FLYPROFiber OM3 LC‑to‑LC Outdoor Uniboot Fiber Cable

FLYPROFiber OM3 LC‑to‑LC outdoor uniboot fiber cable is a rugged, armored multimode duplex patch cord designed for reliable high‑speed outdoor links up to 100 Gbps.

This OM3 patch cable pairs LC uniboot connectors with a stainless‑steel armored core and an outdoor‑rated LSZH jacket to withstand UV, moisture, temperature swings and physical stress. Available in lengths from 10 m to 300 m and a 5 mm outer diameter, it’s made to simplify patch‑panel routing while providing durable performance for data centers, campus backbones, telecom cabinets and harsh exterior runs.

How does the armored construction protect the fiber outdoors?

The cable uses a stainless steel tube around the glass fibers to resist crushing, chewing and impact that would damage ordinary cables. The armor adds pressure resistance without significantly increasing bend stiffness, keeping the fiber safer in exposed runs.

• Stainless steel inner tube for mechanical protection
• LSZH outer jacket that resists UV and weathering
• Heat‑ and wear‑resistant design for long outdoor life

Why choose LC uniboot duplex instead of two separate connectors?

Uniboot connectors combine the two LC ferrules into a single compact housing and boot, halving the rack space required compared with standard duplex assemblies. That compact profile simplifies cable management across high‑density panels while preserving full duplex multimode performance.

• Space‑saving single boot design for dense patch panels
• Cleaner routing and easier polarity management
• Maintains LC performance in a smaller footprint

What network speeds and compatibility does this OM3 cable support?

This OM3 multimode fiber supports modern Ethernet rates, easily handling 10 GbE and scaling to 40/100 Gbps links when paired with the right transceivers and equipment. It terminates in standard LC connectors compatible with switches, routers and SFP+/QSFP interfaces used in enterprise and data center environments.

• OM3 multimode performance for 10G, 40G and 100G applications
• Standard LC‑to‑LC termination for broad compatibility
• Works with common optical transceivers and patch panels

How should I install and protect this outdoor fiber cable?

Install the cable in conduit, along cable trays, or overhead using proper clamps and strain relief to preserve the armor and connector integrity. Avoid tight bends at terminations and use outdoor‑rated connectors or transition points where the cable enters buildings.

• Use conduit or UV‑rated trays for exposed routing
• Employ bend radius guards near terminations
• Anchor with strain relief; seal entry points into enclosures

Who is this for: FLYPROFiber’s OM3 LC‑to‑LC outdoor uniboot cable is aimed at network engineers, installers and IT teams that need a compact, weatherproof multimode solution for high‑density panels, campus links and exterior data runs. It’s particularly useful where space constraints and physical hazards require a tougher cable without sacrificing multimode bandwidth or LC connector compatibility.
