Black Box FOLZHM4-008M-LCLC-AQ Fiber Optic Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box FOLZHM4-008M-LCLC-AQ is an 8-meter, duplex, LC to LC fiber optic patch cable. Its aqua-colored jacket signifies it's designed for multimode fiber applications, specifically OM3 or OM4, which are critical for supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet and higher speeds over shorter distances in data centers and enterprise networks. This cable provides a reliable physical link for connecting network devices like switches, routers, and servers, ensuring data integrity and minimizing signal loss in high-bandwidth environments. The FOLZHM4-008M-LCLC-AQ model is suited for deployments requiring a specific length and connector type for backbone or horizontal cabling runs.
Compatibility
This LC-to-LC duplex patch cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC fiber optic ports. This includes a wide range of enterprise-grade switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and transceivers from manufacturers such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista, Dell, HPE, and others that utilize LC connectors for their fiber optic interfaces. It is specifically designed for use with OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber infrastructure, supporting speeds up to 10 Gbps (OM3) and 40/100 Gbps (OM4) over appropriate distances.
Installation Notes
When installing the FOLZHM4-008M-LCLC-AQ, ensure connectors are clean before insertion to prevent signal degradation and potential damage. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius (typically 30mm for OM3/OM4) to maintain signal integrity. The aqua jacket helps differentiate it from single-mode or other multimode fiber types, aiding in proper network infrastructure management.
