Glasvezelkabel ROLINE 21158615 10 m 2x LC OM4 violet

The ROLINE 21158615 10 m fibre optic cable with 2x LC connectors and OM4 performance is designed for high-bandwidth, low-loss connections in structured networks. This 10-metre full-duplex multimode fibre cable uses a 50 µm core and OM4 grading to support increased data rates and longer reach compared with lower OM grades. The violet jacket identifies OM4 specification and helps with quick visual management in patch panels and cable runs.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable delivers consistent multimode OM4 performance for reduced modal dispersion and stable signal integrity at higher speeds. The dual LC connectors provide a compact, widely compatible interface for modern transceivers and patch panels. The 10 m length suits common rack-to-rack and equipment-to-patch-panel connections while the full-duplex configuration ensures simultaneous bidirectional data flow. The violet color aids identification and organization in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects between switches, servers and storage
• High-speed LAN backbones and enterprise networking
• Patch panel to network equipment links
• Short to medium multimode fibre runs requiring OM4 performance

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC (2x LC at each end)
• Configuration: Full duplex
• Jacket color: Violet (OM4 identification)

How to use

Route the cable between the two network endpoints ensuring gentle bends and avoiding sharp kinks; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibre. Insert the LC connectors into compatible LC ports or adapters until they click into place, verifying correct polarity for full-duplex links. Secure the cable along trays or cable managers to prevent strain on the connectors and avoid close proximity to strong electromagnetic sources, although fibre is immune to electrical interference.

Recommendations

For reliable OM4 performance, keep connector endfaces clean using approved fibre cleaning tools and inspect with a microscope if available. Use this 10 m cable for rack-level connections and short interconnects; for longer links or single-mode requirements select an appropriate single-mode cable. Label both ends to simplify maintenance and follow workplace safety rules when handling fibre to avoid damage and contamination.
