Ideal Applications
ST to LC Multimode OM4+ cables are a practical fit for network spaces where mixed connector types and high-speed transmission both matter.
Data Centers
Supports high-speed links between switches, servers, and storage gear in dense environments.
Local Area Networks
Ideal for enterprise LAN runs where reliable performance and interface flexibility are important.
Telecom Systems
Useful in telecom rooms and distribution spaces that mix legacy and modern connector styles.
Storage Area Networks
Helps support high-bandwidth storage traffic where low latency and stable links are essential.
Test & Measurement
A smart choice for labs, demo setups, and testing environments that need dependable fiber patching.
Custom Fiber Builds
Available in custom lengths and configurations for projects that need a specific setup.
How to Choose the Right OM4 Configuration
Use these quick checks to match the right ST to LC OM4+ cable to your deployment.
Confirm Distance & Bandwidth
OM4+ supports strong medium-distance performance for high-speed links. If your run needs longer reach or future long-haul growth, singlemode OS2 may be the better fit.
Select Cable Length
Choose the length that matches your route cleanly so you avoid excess slack and keep the installation organized.
Choose Jacket Type
Use OFNR for standard spaces, OFNP for plenum-rated areas, and LSZH where low-smoke, halogen-free cable is preferred.
Match the Connector Layout
ST on one side and LC on the other make this assembly a good option when you need to bridge older and newer equipment without compromising performance.
Advantages Over Previous Fiber Types
- Higher Bandwidth & Speed OM4+ gives you better high-speed headroom than older multimode options, helping your network keep up with growing traffic.
- Extended Distance It offers stronger medium-distance reach, making it a practical choice for larger rooms, telecom spaces, and campus-style deployments.
- Future-Ready Solution The OM4+ platform is built for modern Ethernet needs and can keep pace as network speeds continue to climb.
- Mixed-Connector Flexibility ST to LC gives you a simple way to connect different equipment styles without forcing a full infrastructure change.
- Cost-Effective Performance OM4+ multimode provides a strong balance of performance and cost for medium-range applications where singlemode may be more than you need.
