OM4 Multimode

OM4 Patch Cable provide data transfer speeds of 10Gbps in 10GbE high bandwidth applications via 50/125µm laser-optimized OM4 fiber, which is 5 times faster than standard 50/125µm OM2 fiber. The 10G OM4 Fiber Cable 10G OM4 fiber patch cables are developed specifically for VSCEL laser transmission and allow 10Gbps link distances of up to 550 meters. Fiber-Mart offers 10G OM4 fiber patch cables terminated with different fiber optic connectors (LC/SC/ST/FC/MTRJ/MU/E2000/SMA). These cables can be Simplex or Duplex and Customized in optional lengths. All the cables are 100% optically tested for maximum performance before shipping worldwide. Buy OM4 Cable, Buy OM4 Fiber at Fibermart! 

Introduction

The OM4 Fiber Patch Cable is a premium-grade, laser-optimized 50/125μm multimode fiber designed as the definitive solution for high-speed network interconnections. It seamlessly supports data rates from 10G and 40G to 100G Ethernet, making it the backbone of modern data centers and enterprise networks. Characterized by its standard aqua jacket and typically featuring low-loss LC duplex connectors, this cable is engineered for reliability and peak performance in the most demanding environments, offering a future-proof link for critical infrastructure.

Features

● Bend Insensitive Fiber & 7.5mm Min. Bend Radius

● Precision Zirconia Ferrule Connectors Ensure Low Loss

● Flame-Retardant Riser (OFNR) for Vertical and Floor-to-floor Installations

● Color-Coded Cable Jacket for Easy Identification

● Duplex Zipcord Construction Reduces Risk of Damage from Crimping

Principles

OM4 fiber employs an advanced graded-index core design with precisely controlled germanium doping distribution. This creates a parabolic refractive index profile that equalizes modal propagation delays, significantly reducing differential mode delay (DMD). The fiber is optimized for 850 nm VCSEL sources, utilizing selective mode conditioning to enhance bandwidth performance while maintaining compatibility with legacy LED sources.

Applications

● Data center backbone and horizontal cabling.

● High-performance computing (HPC) clusters.

● 40G/100G Ethernet links between switches and servers.

● Storage Area Networks (SANs) and Fibre Channel environments.
