Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS160V1318 10M OM4 LC SC Fiber Patch Cable Plenum 100G Duplex 50/125 Multimode, TAA Compliant

Overview

This 10-meter OM4 duplex fiber optic patch cable connects network devices using LC and SC connectors. It's designed for high-speed data transmission up to 100 Gbps, making it suitable for demanding enterprise and data center environments. The plenum-rated jacket ensures compliance with building codes for in-wall installations, offering a safe and reliable connection for critical infrastructure. The FCDUS160V1318 model is TAA compliant, meeting government procurement requirements.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC (on one end) and SC (on the other end) fiber optic ports. This includes switches, routers, servers, and transceivers supporting OM4 multimode fiber specifications for 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GBASE-SR4, 100GBASE-SR10) and lower speeds like 10/40 Gbps Ethernet. It is suitable for use with equipment from major vendors requiring OM4 performance.

Installation Notes

Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal loss or damage. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius (typically 7.5mm for OM4) to maintain signal integrity and prevent fiber breakage. The plenum jacket is designed for use in air-handling spaces; do not use in riser or general-purpose applications where a riser-rated jacket is specified.
