Nippon Labs OM4 duplex fibre cable 10m

This Nippon Labs OM4 duplex cable uses 50/125 multimode fibre with LC to LC connectors. It is built for high-throughput links in data-centre, campus or enterprise networks. The aqua PVC jacket is OFNR rated for riser installations between floors. UPC polish keeps insertion loss below .3 dB and return loss above 35 dB.

Suits high-density patching and 10G to 100G uplinks

Network engineers running 10G up to 550 metres or 40G and 100G up to 150 metres will find the effective modal bandwidth of 4700 MHz/km at 850 nm matches those distances. The small LC form factor fits dense patch panels. Installers needing single-mode reach, armoured cable or a different connector type should look elsewhere.

10 metre length covers rack-to-rack

At 10 metres the cable comfortably spans adjacent cabinets or row-to-row trays while leaving slack for management. For longer campus spans the OM4 specification supports 550 metres at 10G and 150 metres at 40G or 100G. Beyond those distances signal budget runs out and a different fibre grade or active equipment is required.

Questions about this item

Which transceivers or switch ports accept the LC duplex connectors on this cable?

Any SFP, SFP+ or QSFP module with a duplex LC receptacle will accept the two LC connectors; the cable uses a standard LC/LC duplex interface.

Will this OM4 cable work with my existing OM3 patch leads and 10 Gb transceivers?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with LED-based 50/125 µm multimode links, so it interoperates with OM3 cabling and 10 Gb equipment.

What insertion loss and return loss should I measure to confirm the link meets spec?

Expect insertion loss below .3 dB and return loss above 35 dB per connector when tested with a calibrated light source and power meter.
