What is an LC to LC Multimode OM4 Ultra Fiber Cable?

An LC to LC Multimode OM4 Ultra Fiber Cable is a high-performance optical fiber cable designed for short to medium-distance data transmission with high bandwidth requirements. OM4 fibers have a core size of 50 microns and are optimized for laser-based transmissions, making them ideal for 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet applications. The LC connectors (Lucent Connectors) on both ends are small form factor connectors that allow for high-density fiber deployments, especially in environments where space optimization is essential, such as data centers and telecom rooms.

Key Features of LC to LC Multimode OM4 Ultra Fiber Cable

1. High-Speed Data Transmission

• • • OM4 fiber supports up to 100 Gbps data rates, making it ideal for high-performance applications like data centers, SANs, and enterprise LANs.

2. Extended Reach

• • • OM4 fibers can transmit 10 Gbps up to 550 meters, and 40/100 Gbps up to 150 meters, providing improved reach over OM3 fibers.

3. Low Insertion Loss and High Return Loss

• • • LC connectors provide low insertion loss (<0.3 dB) and high return loss, ensuring consistent signal integrity over the cable’s distance, reducing data errors and improving transmission reliability.

4. Compact Design for High-Density Applications

• • • The small size of the LC connectors allows for higher-density fiber connections, saving space in rack-mounted equipment, which is especially useful in data centers and telecommunications closets.

5. Durable and Reliable Performance

• • • Manufactured with high-quality materials, OM4 fiber cables are designed to withstand demanding environments, ensuring long-term reliability and durability for mission-critical applications.
