Description

Black Box EFNT010-005M-SCLC OM3 Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cable

Overview

The Black Box EFNT010-005M-SCLC is a 5-meter OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable, high-bandwidth data transmission in enterprise and data center environments. This cable utilizes 50/125 micron fiber, optimized for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and beyond, ensuring that your network infrastructure can support demanding applications like video surveillance backbones, storage area networks, and high-speed data transfers. Its construction supports the transmission of data over longer distances compared to copper cabling, making it a critical component for connecting network devices across racks or within larger facilities. The black color aids in distinguishing it from other cable types in dense installations.

Compatibility

This OM3 cable is compatible with all network equipment utilizing LC connectors and supporting multimode fiber transmission standards, including 10GbE (10GBASE-SR), 40GbE (40GBASE-SR4), and 100GbE (100GBASE-SR4) over short distances. It is suitable for use with network switches, routers, servers, and optical transceivers that feature LC ports. Specifically, it integrates with systems requiring high-speed fiber optic uplinks and interconnections where bandwidth and signal integrity are paramount. It is designed to meet the stringent requirements of modern IP surveillance systems that rely on high-resolution video streams.

Installation Notes

When installing the EFNT010-005M-SCLC, maintain a minimum bend radius of 30mm (1.2 inches) for the OM3 fiber to prevent signal degradation or damage. Avoid sharp bends or kinks. Ensure LC connectors are clean before insertion into transceivers or patch panels to prevent performance issues. The cable is intended for indoor, controlled environments.
