LC UPC to LC UPC Duplex Flat Clip Uniboot OM4, 2.0mm, lszh Fiber Patch Cable
For Pakistani procurement and engineering teams, the specification provides a practical basis for checking compatibility before production is requested. This OM4 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM4 glass and optically tested as an entire unit. The uniboot build places the two fibers of the duplex connection inside a single round 2.0mm cord with one combined connector housing, halving the installed cable count in dense panels and simplifying polarity management.
Product Highlights

- Bend Insensitive Fiber with 7.5mm Min. Bend Radius
- Flat Clip Design Provides Additional Space Between Connectors and Improves Airflow
- Reverse Polarity without Exposing the Fibers or Needing Any Tools
- Termination Is Tested to Ensure Network Performance

Why OM4 replaced OM3 in new builds
OM4 raises the effective modal bandwidth to 4700 MHz·km at 850nm, and that headroom translates directly into reach for the higher-speed interfaces. Because the price difference against OM3 has largely disappeared, new cabling plants standardize on OM4 and keep OM3 only for matching present installations.
Polarity and pairing in duplex links
A duplex jumper is two fibers with a defined A-to-B crossover. Getting polarity right at the cord level keeps the link consistent end to end, which is why these assemblies are built and tested as a pair rather than as two individual strands.
One cord, two fibers
The uniboot design merges the duplex pair into a single round cord and a single connector housing. In a 400G row where each QSFP-DD port consumes a duplex connection, halving the cord count visibly changes the airflow and the manageability of the patching field.
Length Options
Catalogue lengths cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), with custom-built length offered beyond the list. Specifying the measured path length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the optical interfaces.
Quality Control and Testing
Every manufactured 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 installed cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result offered on specify.
Ordering and Factory Support
Refer to this setup by connector pair, fiber mode and length when specifying a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, identification or project packing, send the specification with the request and the factory will make certain of the build before factory assembly. For Pakistan, a clear port or maintenance schedule helps us confirm the correct factory-built configuration before supply.
