5m SC-ST OM4 Multimode Fibre Optic Cable | Blue

Fibre patch cables are thin, flexible fibres of glass that carry data, telephone conversations and emails high speed all over the world in a matter of seconds with much less interference than copper patch lead. Fibre Optic cables need less amplification to boost signals so they travel better over longer distances.

4Cabling's OM4 laser optimised multimode fibre optic patch leads are immune to EMI/ RFI frequency, The multimode optical fibre cables are manufactured using LSZH cables which conform to IEC, EIA TIA and Telcordia standards, ensuring minimal toxic gas emission in the event of a fire, this is often a requirement for many data centres and critical area applications. LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sometimes referred to as LS0H is the material of choice for a green installation for the environmentally-conscious consumer.

4Cabling Multimode Fibre Optics leads provide a cost-effective solution for your cabling requirements.

OM4 is backwards compatible with OM3 Fibre optic.

• The same core size of 50/125µm
• Both fibres are Laser Optimised Multimode Fibre (LOMMF)
• OM4 is backwards compatible with OM3

 
The difference is the construction of the fibre cable, in that OM4 cable has better attenuation and can operate at a higher bandwidth than OM3 (4700MHz versus 2500). This means OM4 can transmit more data within the same distance.
