FAQ
What is the length of this fiber patch cable?
This cable measures 131.2 feet (40 meters) in length, providing ample reach for connecting network equipment across server racks, between floors, or in distributed setups. The 40-meter span supports OM4 fiber's optimal performance for high-bandwidth applications without signal loss.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
Both ends feature LC male connectors, designed for secure, low-loss connections in fiber optic systems. The LC interface is compact and widely used in high-density environments, with UPC polishing ensuring minimal reflection and high signal integrity for reliable data transmission.
Is this cable suitable for plenum or riser spaces?
Yes, the cable has an OFNR riser-rated PVC jacket, making it compliant for use in vertical riser shafts and plenum areas where fire safety regulations apply. This rating ensures the jacket resists flame propagation and reduces smoke emission, meeting building code requirements for safe installations.
What fiber category and mode does this cable use?
It uses OM4-rated multi-mode duplex fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding specification. OM4 fiber supports higher bandwidth and longer distances compared to older OM3 or OM2 standards, ideal for 10G, 40G, or 100G Ethernet applications in modern network infrastructures.
Does this cable include any special features?
The cable features stranded fiber for improved flexibility, Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polishing on connectors for low insertion loss, and fire-resistant materials in the jacket. These elements enhance durability, signal performance, and safety, making it a robust choice for demanding network environments.
What is the color and jacket material of this cable?
The jacket is aqua-colored, falling within the green color family for easy identification, and made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). This material provides durability and flexibility, while the distinct color helps technicians quickly differentiate it from other cable types during installation or troubleshooting.
