Fiber patch cable for 100 Gbit/s links

The AddOn ADD-LC-LC-5MS5OM4 is a simplex multi-mode patch cable built for short-reach 100 Gbit/s connections. It uses 50/125 µm OM4 fibre terminated with LC male connectors on both ends. The aqua jacket identifies the OM4 grade at a glance. It suits data-centre cross-connects, transceiver uplinks and high-density patch panels.

Riser-rated jacket for in-wall routing

The OFNR riser rating allows the cable to run vertically between floors without conduit. The 16.40 ft length covers typical rack-to-rack or row-to-row distances. Passive fibre construction means zero power draw, no active cooling and silent operation in normal use.

Lifetime warranty covers the link

A limited lifetime warranty backs the cable against defects in materials and workmanship. No software, drivers or configuration utilities are bundled or required. The straight-through wiring works immediately with any compatible transceiver or panel port.

Questions about this item

How do I install the LC male connectors on this 16.40 ft OM4 patch cable, and what is the common mistake?

Align the key on each LC male connector with the transceiver port slot, push straight in until the latch clicks, and verify the link light. The frequent error is forcing the connector upside down, which bends the 50/125 µm fiber tip and kills the 100 Gbit/s signal.

What maintenance or replacement will this Aqua OM4 simplex cable need over time?

Inspect the LC male ferrules before every reconnect; clean with a one-click cleaner if dust is visible. Replace the patch cord if the riser-rated jacket shows cracks, the aqua boot splits, or insertion loss climbs above your link budget — otherwise the lifetime warranty covers defects.

What limit appears first when this 50/125 µm multimode cable runs at 100 Gbit/s continuously?

Modal dispersion in the 50/125 µm core is the first bottleneck; it caps reliable reach well before the 16.40 ft length, so eye closure and bit-error rate rise faster than thermal or connector-cycle limits.
