Overview
This OM4 LC to LC Multimode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch cable delivers reliable connectivity across 40 and 100 Gigabit networks. The TIA-standard Erika Violet jacket clearly distinguishes OM4 from Aqua OM3/OM4 cabling, eliminating guesswork in critical network setups. The compact uniboot connector design enables easy insertion and removal in high-density installations. Built with laser-optimized multimode fiber (LOMMF), the OM4 fiber patch cable is ideal for 850 nm and 1350 nm Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) and LED sources. Precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules maintain accurate fiber alignment to prevent connectivity issues and minimize insertion loss. Designed for reliability in high-density network applications, the LC to LC UPC polished fiber ends greatly improves return loss characteristics over older PC polishing techniques which may negatively affect performance.
Technical Features
- Erika Violet OM4 Fiber: OM4 multimode fiber cable is immune to EMI and supports speeds up to 100Gbps; Erika Violet jacket is TIA-standardized for OM4 to prevent confusion with Aqua OM3/OM4 cables; compact uniboot design improves airflow and access in dense installations.
- Quality Construction: LC-LC connectors with UPC polished ends deliver improved return loss over PC polish; molded strain relief reduces wear from bending; reinforced with protective Aramid yarn for added tensile strength.
- Safety and Reliability: Individually tested for guaranteed OM4 performance with test report included; OFNR riser-rated jacket limits flame spread between floors; attenuation of 3 dB/km meets TIA standards.
- Wide Compatibility: Supports 1/10/40/100Gbps full-duplex transmission; backward compatible with OM3; ideal for SANs, data centers, fiber switches, and LC-based SFP/SFP+ transceivers.
