Product Features
Technical Overview
This OM4-rated multimode fiber optic cable supports high-speed data transmission with 50/125 µm core/cladding specifications. The BENDnFLEX technology enhances durability by minimizing signal loss when the cable is bent, making it suitable for installations where routing through conduits, around corners, or in crowded racks is required.
The plenum-rated OFNP jacket meets fire safety standards for use in air handling spaces without conduit, providing installation flexibility in commercial buildings. The silver color offers visual distinction for cable management and identification purposes.

FAQ
What type of connectors does this fiber optic cable have?
This cable has LC male connectors on both ends. Each end features a single LC connector, making it a duplex patch cable suitable for connecting network equipment with LC fiber optic ports. The LC connector design provides secure, low-insertion-loss connections that maintain signal integrity across the cable's 131.2 ft length.
What does 'bend insensitive' mean for this fiber cable?
Bend insensitive refers to the cable's ability to maintain optical performance when bent or routed around tight corners. The BENDnFLEX construction minimizes signal loss from microbending, allowing the cable to be installed in spaces with limited clearance without degrading transmission quality. This makes it suitable for installations where cables must navigate through conduits, around equipment, or in crowded racks.
Where can I install this plenum-rated cable?
The OFNP plenum rating allows installation in air handling spaces without additional conduit, including above suspended ceilings and below raised floors in commercial buildings. This rating meets fire safety standards for plenum areas, providing installation flexibility while maintaining compliance with building codes. The cable is suitable for data centers, office buildings, and institutional facilities where plenum-rated cabling is required.
What network applications is this OM4 cable suitable for?
This OM4-rated multimode fiber optic cable supports high-speed data transmission for network backbone connections, data center interconnects, and storage area networks. It's compatible with network devices requiring LC fiber connections and can be used for Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and other fiber-based protocols. The 50/125 µm core specification and OM4 rating ensure performance for current high-bandwidth applications.
