Malaysian upgrade projects can use this configuration where its interface and fiber map align with both the installed cabling and the new hardware. This OM3 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM3 glass and optically tested as a whole assembly. The uniboot construction places the two fibers of the duplex link inside a single round 2.0mm cord with one combined connector housing, halving the completed cable count in compact high-density panels and simplifying polarity management.

Multimode links fail more often from contamination than from fiber damage. Each ferrule should be inspected and cleaned before joining the interfaces, and the dust caps ought to stay on until the moment of connection. These habits matter more than any specification on the datasheet.
This OM3 assembly matches the deployed base of OM3 channel cabling: 10G links to 300 meters and 40/100G SR4 links to 70 meters. When the permanent link is OM3, patching with OM3 keeps the channel specification homogeneous and the test reports clean.
Uniboot connectors expose the polarity through the housing rather than the termination: the latches or clips let the installer swap the fiber positions without opening the cord. A polarity mistake discovered at turn-up becomes a two-minute correction instead of a replacement order. Malaysian upgrade teams can use this detail to compare the new assembly with the installed cabling records.
Normal length options cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), with project-specific length available beyond the list. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the relevant connectors.
Each finished assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The completed cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result available on request.
Refer to this configuration by connector pair, fiber mode and length when seeking a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labelling or project packing, send the need with the inquiry and the factory will determine the build before the product is built. For Malaysian upgrades, our team can compare the requested build with the existing environment before production begins.
