Know before you buy
Yes, this OM4 cable is fully backward compatible with OM3 fiber, allowing you to integrate it into your current network setup without issues.
Yes, the cable features an OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rating, which means it meets the necessary fire safety standards for installation in riser spaces.
The distinct Erika Violet color is the industry-standard identifier for OM4 fiber. It helps you quickly distinguish these cables from OM3 or other fiber types when managing high-density server racks.
Yes, this cable is engineered to support up to 100 Gbps full duplex transmission, making it suitable for high-performance data servers and storage area networks.
Laser-optimized multimode fiber (LOMMF) is designed to minimize insertion loss when used with 850 nm and 1350 nm light sources. This ensures a more reliable, high-speed connection over the 20-meter distance.
