ECS LC-SC/x/OM4 is an OM4 duplex fiber patch cord for multimode connections. It connects LC/UPC to SC/UPC interfaces for equipment-to-panel or panel-to-panel patching. The Erika violet cable helps identify the fiber connection in the rack.
Connector compatibility
Which connectors does this patch cord use? LC/UPC at end A and SC/UPC at end B. Match each end to the equipment or patch panel. UPC and APC must not be mated directly. Use multimode optics specified for OM4 fiber. A passive patch cord does not establish the link speed or maximum transmission distance.

Installation requirements
Choose a cable length that follows the actual routing without tension. Clean and inspect connector end faces before connection, match the polish at both ends and observe the cable bend radius. Check transmit/receive polarity across the complete duplex fiber path. Confirm the optical loss budget using the transceiver requirements and all cable connections.
Optical performance must be checked for the ordered connector assembly and complete link.
