3-metre OM4 duplex fibre for 400G links

This three-metre OM4 duplex cable carries 400G Ethernet traffic over 50/125 multimode fibre with LC duplex male connectors on both ends. It suits hyperscale data centres, cloud providers and telecom carriers that need high-density, short-reach interconnects. The aqua LSZH jacket aids quick visual identification in packed patch panels.

Upgrade from legacy 40G or 100G multimode runs

The cable is backward compatible with 40G and 100G networks, so existing OM4 infrastructure can stay in place while links move to 400G. The jump is worth it when bandwidth demand exceeds what older transceivers deliver at 850nm and distances remain within 100 metres. Switchable polarity ends let technicians flip fibre mapping without tools or re-termination.

Fits dense LC patching environments

Switchable connectors work with stacked LC adapters to raise port density in switches and patch panels. PC end-face polish ensures low insertion loss for standard multimode transceivers. The round LSZH jacket routes cleanly in cable managers and meets low-smoke safety requirements for indoor installations.

Questions about this item

Will the LC duplex connectors fit standard SFP+ or QSFP transceivers in a 1U patch panel?

The cable uses LC duplex male connectors on both ends with PC polish, matching the standard LC interface used by SFP+ and QSFP transceivers in 1U panels.

How do I change the polarity on the switchable connectors without tools?

Each LC duplex end has a latch that releases the internal fibre pair; slide the latch, swap the two fibres by hand, then re-engage the latch to reverse polarity.

When should I plan to replace this OM4 cable in a 400 GbE link?

OM4 50/125 fibre is rated for 400 GbE up to 100 metres at 850 nm; replace if insertion loss exceeds your link budget or if the aqua LSZH jacket shows cracking from repeated handling.
