ACT 0,25 meter multimode 50/125 OM4 polarity twist glasvezelkabel met LC-stekkers

The ACT 0.25 meter Multimode 50/125 OM4 fiber cable with LC connectors is a short patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in dense network environments. With a 50 µm core and OM4 multimode specification, the cable supports elevated bandwidth and improved modal dispersion characteristics compared to earlier multimode grades. Its 0.25 m length and LC-to-LC termination provide compact, low-loss connections ideal for equipment-to-equipment links inside racks, patch panels, and network switch ports.

Advantages

This multimode fiber cable delivers consistent performance for short-range, high-bandwidth applications. The OM4 rating provides higher bandwidth-distance product suitable for 10G, 40G and 100G Ethernet over multimode fiber where supported by connected hardware. LC connectors offer a small form factor that conserves rack space and enables dense port population. The short 0.25 m length reduces excess cable slack, minimizes signal attenuation and simplifies cable management in tight spaces.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between switches, transceivers and patch panels within racks
• Short-reach links in data centers and server rooms
• High-density networking environments requiring LC terminations
• Environments using 10G, 40G or 100G multimode transceivers where OM4 is supported

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Core/cladding diameter: 50/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Length: 0.25 m
• Jacket: compact patch cable design for confined spaces
• Typical applications: short-reach data center interconnects and server links

How to use

Ensure both port types are LC and compatible with multimode OM4 fiber before installation. Inspect connector endfaces for dust or contamination and clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Gently insert each LC connector into the corresponding transceiver, switch, or patch panel port until it clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends; maintain the minimum bend radius specified for multimode fiber to prevent increased loss. For removal, depress the LC latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the connector or port.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to avoid kinks and prolonged tight bends. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform regular endface inspections to maintain low insertion loss. Match the cable with compatible OM4-rated transceivers and equipment to achieve the intended performance for short-reach, high-speed links.
