Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS278V9368-TAA 3M OM4 LC-SC Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS278V9368-TAA is a 3-meter, OM4, LC to SC duplex fiber optic patch cable. It's designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications, utilizing 50/125 micron multimode fiber. The cable's construction supports both indoor and outdoor deployments, providing a robust connection for high-bandwidth data transmission in demanding environments. This cable is critical for ensuring reliable data flow between network devices, such as NVRs, switches, and servers, in surveillance systems requiring substantial throughput.

Compatibility

This FCDUS278V9368-TAA cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC (on one end) and SC (on the other end) fiber optic ports. This includes a wide range of network switches, routers, media converters, and network video recorders (NVRs) from vendors like Axis Communications, Hanwha Vision, Hikvision, Dahua, and others that support 100GBASE-SR4 or similar multimode interfaces. It is suitable for connecting devices within a data center, server room, or between buildings where outdoor-rated cabling is necessary.

Installation Notes

The cable features a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, suitable for indoor use where fire safety is a concern. Its outdoor rating means it can withstand environmental factors like moisture and UV exposure. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation. The duplex configuration requires two ports on each connected device for simultaneous transmit and receive operations. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 25mm (1 inch) during installation to avoid signal loss.
