Black Box FOLZHM4005MLCLCYL OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box FOLZHM4005MLCLCYL is a 5-meter (16.4 ft) OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in enterprise and data center environments. Its yellow, Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installation in plenum spaces where fire safety is critical. This cable terminates with LC connectors on both ends, providing a secure and reliable connection for network equipment.
Compatibility
This OM4 fiber optic patch cable is backward compatible with OM3 and OM1/OM2 systems but is optimized for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) up to 300 meters, 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) up to 100 meters, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) up to 70 meters. It is compatible with any network device, switch, or transceiver utilizing LC-type fiber optic connectors, commonly found in SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, and QSFP28 modules. Ensure your network equipment supports multimode fiber optics and the desired data rates.
Installation Notes
The LSZH jacket reduces the emission of toxic and corrosive gases in the event of a fire, making it ideal for use in air-handling spaces. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 7.5 cm (3 inches) during installation to prevent signal degradation. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to avoid performance issues. The cable's 5-meter length is suitable for standard rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel connections within a single rack or adjacent racks.
