Good Connections SC-SC OM5 Duplex Fibre Patch Cable — 0.5 m
OM5 MultimodeSC/UPC – SC/UPC0.5 mLSZH 3 mm
The Good Connections LW-8005SC5 is a 0.5 m duplex fibre optic patch cable with SC/UPC and SC/UPC connectors on OM5 multimode fibre (50/125 µm), for connecting multimode SFP/SFP+ transceivers, media converters and patch panels in racks, offices and server rooms.
OM5 is wideband multimode fibre (WBMMF): 50/125 µm fibre that behaves like OM4 at 850 nm and additionally supports short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) between 850 and 953 nm. The lime-green jacket is the standard OM5 colour, and the cable works with all OM3/OM4-class multimode SR optics.
Before you order: This is OM5 multimode cable. It only works with multimode optics (SR/SX, 850 nm) and multimode panels, not with LX/LR singlemode transceivers.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Good Connections LW-8005SC5 duplex fibre patch cable, SC/UPC – SC/UPC, 0.5 m
- Dust caps on the connector ends
- Individual test report (each cable is tested before shipping)
What It Means in Practice
- 0.5 m is a short jumper: switch to patch panel in the same rack, transceiver to a nearby panel, or port to port in adjacent units.
- Duplex means two fibres (transmit and receive) in one cable, which is exactly what a standard duplex SFP, SFP+ or QSFP transceiver needs.
- The duplex clip is detachable, so you can swap A/B polarity in the field if the link does not come up, instead of ordering a crossed cable.
- LSZH jacket, 3 mm outer diameter, lime green: halogen-free, the usual requirement for cabling inside offices, public buildings and data rooms.
- Minimum bend radius 7.5 mm: keep curves in cable managers and trunking wider than this to avoid extra loss or a damaged fibre.
What Will Not Work
- It will not mate correctly with APC (angled, normally green) ports or adapters; those need an APC cable.
- Both ends are SC. Most SFP/SFP+ transceivers use LC, so this cable is for SC panels, media converters and SC-equipped devices, not for plugging straight into an LC transceiver.
- It is not a copper cable: it does not connect to RJ45 ports or copper (RJ45) SFP modules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Most fibre problems we see come from three mismatches: multimode vs singlemode, UPC vs APC, and LC vs SC. This Good Connections cable is OM5 multimode, UPC SC-SC, so match it to your optics and panel first. If you are building the link from scratch, pick the transceivers and switches with SFP ports first, then choose the cable that matches them.
✓ Buy it if your equipment uses OM5 multimode fibre with SC/UPC and SC/UPC ports and 0.5 m covers the distance.
✕ Skip it if your transceivers are singlemode (LR/LX), or your ports are APC.
→ Also consider the same cable in other lengths, or an LC-SC hybrid version if your ports differ; matching SFP/SFP+ transceivers.
Not sure which cable you need? Send us the model of your switch, transceiver or panel and we will check connectors and fibre type before you order.
