Know before you buy
Yes, this OM4 cable is fully backward compatible with existing 50/125 multimode fiber installations, allowing you to integrate it into your current network setup.
A plenum rating means the cable jacket is constructed from materials that meet strict fire safety standards, making it safe to install in air-handling spaces like drop ceilings, walls, and raised floors.
Yes, this cable is specifically designed to support 40/100 Gb Ethernet applications and is compatible with QSFP+ 40GBASE-SR4 and QSFP28 100GBASE-SR4 transceivers.
The push/pull tabs allow you to easily insert and remove the MTP/MPO connectors in high-density environments where space is limited and fingers may not easily reach the connector housing.
The magenta color is the industry-standard identifier for OM4 fiber, which helps you quickly distinguish these high-performance cables from other fiber types in a crowded data center rack.
Like all fiber optic cables, the MTP/MPO connectors should be kept clean and free of dust or oils to ensure optimal signal integrity. We recommend using standard fiber optic cleaning tools before making any connections.
