Black Box FOCMPM4-020M-STLC-RD OM4 Multimode Fiber Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box FOCMPM4-020M-STLC-RD is a 20-meter, 50/125 micron OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable. It terminates with an ST connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, making it suitable for connecting network devices with different port types or for specific patch panel configurations in high-bandwidth environments. This cable is designed to support data transmission speeds up to 100 Gbps over short to medium distances, commonly found in data centers, enterprise networks, and surveillance system backbones.
Compatibility
This OM4 fiber patch cable is compatible with any network equipment, transceivers (like SFP+, QSFP+, QSFP28), and patch panels that utilize ST (SC-type) and LC (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber optic connectors. It is suitable for use with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE), and 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) applications, as well as Fibre Channel and other high-speed data protocols. Ensure your network devices have the corresponding ST and LC ports for proper connectivity.
Installation Notes
When installing this cable, avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation or fiber damage. The cable jacket is black. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent performance issues. The ST connector typically uses a bayonet-style locking mechanism, while the LC connector uses a latching mechanism.
