Tripp Lite 2 m OM4 duplex fibre cable

This 2 m duplex multimode patch cable uses 50/125 µm OM4 fibre with LC connectors on both ends. It supports 10 Gbps, 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps serial transmission and is rated for distances up to 400 m at 850 nm. The magenta jacket provides quick visual identification of the OM4 rating. It suits LAN, SAN and high-speed parallel interconnects in data centres and head-end installations.

LSZH jacket operating temperature range

The low-smoke zero-halogen jacket meets safety requirements for confined spaces and operates from -20 to 60 °C. Passive fibre construction means no power draw and no fan noise during normal use. Premium ceramic ferrules and a slim uniboot design keep insertion loss low while simplifying cable management in dense patch panels.

Sustained 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps throughput

Under continuous load the cable maintains rated bandwidth without thermal throttling because it carries light rather than electrical current. The push/pull tabs allow one-hand connector changes during live maintenance without disturbing adjacent fibres. It delivers nearly four times the bandwidth of conventional 62.5 µm multimode fibre for sustained high-density links.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the LC duplex connectors with push/pull tabs and what is the common mistake?

Squeeze the push/pull tab on each LC duplex connector to release the latch, then insert straight into the transceiver until it clicks; the common mistake is pulling the cable jacket instead of the tab, which can damage the fibre.

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

Inspect the ceramic ferrules and end-faces for contamination before each reconnection; clean with a fibre optic cleaning cassette if dirty, and replace the cable if the ferrules are scratched or the LSZH jacket shows cuts or kinks.

What is the distance limit for 10 Gb serial transmission at 850 nm on this OM4 cable?

The cable supports 10 Gb serial transmission up to 400 m at 850 nm; beyond that distance signal attenuation and modal dispersion become the limiting factors.
