Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS353V10229 Armored OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS353V10229 is a 30-meter, OM4, LC-LC duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-bandwidth, 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications. Its armored construction provides enhanced physical protection, making it suitable for environments where cable integrity is critical, such as industrial settings or areas with potential for rodent damage. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket minimizes toxic fumes in case of fire, a key consideration for indoor installations in public spaces or data centers.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC duplex connectors, including enterprise switches, routers, servers, and optical transceivers (e.g., SFP, SFP+, QSFP28) that support OM4 multimode fiber. It is suitable for 100GBASE-SR4, 40GBASE-SR4, and 10GBASE-SR Ethernet standards, as well as other high-speed fiber optic networking protocols requiring 50/125 micron multimode fiber.

Installation Notes

The armored construction requires careful handling during installation to avoid kinking or crushing the cable, which could compromise its performance. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 20mm for the armored cable to prevent damage. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to guarantee optimal signal transmission. The LSZH jacket is suitable for indoor use where fire safety regulations are stringent.
