What this cable is and who needs it

This OM4 duplex multimode fiber optic cable uses LC connectors and a 50/125 micron core. It supports 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet links such as 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR10 with SFP+ and QSFP+ transceivers. The aqua PVC jacket identifies the OM4 rating in data-centre and wiring-closet installations. Buyers who need single-mode fibre or a different connector type should look elsewhere.

Check your existing setup before ordering

Verify that your transceivers and patch panels accept LC duplex connectors and 50/125 micron multimode fibre. Confirm the link budget allows the 26.2 ft length for the intended 40 or 100 GbE speed. Ensure the aqua jacket colour matches your cable-management colour code. The cable is backward compatible with existing 50/125 equipment, but it will not work with single-mode ports.

What the bundled items actually change

No accessories or software are bundled with this cable. The product is the fibre assembly only, so no additional adapters, cleaning kits or licensing keys are included. Installation relies on standard LC polishing and inspection practices already used for 50/125 multimode plant.

Questions about this item

Does the 26.2 ft aqua cable arrive with both LC connectors fitted, or must I buy connectors separately?

The cable is supplied as a finished duplex assembly with LC connectors on both ends, so no extra connectors are required.

Should I choose this OM4 50/125 cable or a different grade for 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps transceiver links?

This OM4 50/125 duplex cable is specified for 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR10, plus SFP+ and QSFP+ transceivers, making it the correct grade for those speeds.

What does the OM4 rating mean when the cable is installed in a live 40 or 100 gigabit network?

OM4 guarantees the bandwidth headroom needed for LED and VCSEL laser sources at 40 and 100 gigabit Ethernet, and remains backward compatible with existing 50/125 equipment.
