Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS464V12037 1M OM4 LC-LC Duplex Plenum Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

This 1-meter, OM4, LC-LC duplex fiber patch cable is designed for high-speed data transmission in plenum-rated environments, supporting 100G Ethernet and beyond. Its duplex configuration ensures simultaneous transmit and receive paths, critical for network backbone connectivity and server interconnects where bandwidth and low latency are paramount. The plenum rating makes it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces, meeting stringent building codes.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC duplex connectors, including switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and transceivers (e.g., SFP, SFP+, QSFP28) that support OM4 multimode fiber. It is suitable for use with network devices from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and others requiring high-bandwidth, short-reach fiber connectivity. The TAA compliance ensures suitability for government and federal agency deployments.

Installation Notes

Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius (typically 7.5mm for OM4) to maintain signal integrity and prevent cable damage. The plenum jacket requires careful handling during installation to avoid abrasion or crushing, which could compromise fire safety ratings.
