Monoprice OM3 Uniboot Cable

This Monoprice OM3 fibre optic cable uses LC/LC Uniboot connectors to carry two fibres inside one aqua jacket. It is built for high-throughput enterprise networks, telecom rooms, server farms and cloud storage links where space and airflow matter. The 5 m length suits rack-to-rack or cross-connect runs.

Uniboot Design Saves Space

The Uniboot construction cuts installation volume by roughly 50 percent compared with traditional duplex jumpers, freeing room in dense patch panels and improving airflow in wiring closets. Polarity can be reversed by hand without tools, so installers can correct Tx/Rx alignment on the spot during moves or upgrades.

10 Gb to 300 m Headroom

OM3 multi-mode fibre rated at 2000 MHz/km EMB at 850 nm supports 10 Gb links up to 300 m and 40 Gb or 100 Gb links up to 100 m. Runs longer than those distances will need single-mode fibre or active equipment. The cable is UL listed and OFNR rated for in-building riser use.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the OM3 fibre support at 850 nm?

The cable has an Effective Modal Bandwidth of 2000 MHz/km at 850 nm.

How much heat or signal loss builds up over a 5 m run?

Over 5 metres the attenuation is negligible; the cable is rated for 10 Gb up to 300 m and 40 Gb or 100 Gb up to 100 m.

What transceivers or ports are required at each end?

Both ends use LC duplex connectors, so you need SFP or QSFP modules with LC interfaces.
