Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS408V11702 3 Meter OM4 LC LC Any-Angle Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

This 3-meter Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS408V11702 duplex fiber patch cable is engineered for high-speed data transmission in demanding network environments. It features OM4 multimode fiber, providing bandwidth for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The Any-Angle LC connectors on both ends offer installation flexibility in tight spaces, while the plenum-rated jacket ensures compliance for in-wall and ceiling installations. This cable is ideal for connecting network switches, servers, and other fiber-optic equipment where performance and safety are critical.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment utilizing standard LC duplex connectors, including switches, routers, transceivers (SFP, SFP+, QSFP+), and network interface cards. It is suitable for use with 10/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet standards and backward compatible with lower speeds. The OM4 rating supports distances up to 300 meters for 100GBASE-SR4 and 400 meters for 400GBASE-SR12 applications. It integrates with standard fiber optic patch panels and equipment racks.

Installation Notes

The Any-Angle connectors allow for a minimum bend radius of 7.5mm, facilitating installation in confined rack spaces or behind equipment where traditional connectors may not fit. The plenum-rated jacket (CMP) is designed for use in air-handling spaces, offering superior fire resistance and low smoke emission compared to riser-rated (OFNR) cables. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation.
