StarTech.com OM4RLCLC7M 7m LC/UPC OM4 Fiber Cable OFNR Riser

This OM4 LC to LC Multimode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch cable delivers reliable connectivity across 40 and 100 Gigabit networks. The TIA-standard Erika Violet jacket clearly distinguishes OM4 from Aqua OM3/OM4 cabling, eliminating guesswork in critical network setups. The compact uniboot connector design enables easy insertion and removal in high-density installations.

- ERIKA VIOLET OM4: OM4 multimode fiber cable is immune to EMI and supports up to 100Gbps; Erika Violet jacket is TIA-standardized for OM4, avoiding OM3/OM4 confusion with Aqua cables; Compact uniboot design enhances airflow & access in dense installations

- QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: LC/LC connectors with UPC polished ends significantly improves return loss over PC polish; Robust molded strain reliefs minimize wear from bending; Protective Aramid yarn for increased tensile strength

- SAFETY AND RELIABILITY: Each cable is individually tested for guaranteed OM4 performance and includes a test report; OFNR riser-rated cable jacket minimizes flame spread between floors in riser spaces; Attenuation value of 3dB/km meets TIA standards

- WIDE COMPATIBILITY: Supports 1/10/40/100 Gbps full duplex transmission; Backward compatible with OM3; For high-density network applications such as SANs, data servers, fiber switches, and LC-based SFP/SFP+ transceivers

- SPECS: 7-meter (23-foot); Color: Erika Violet (OM4); LC/LC UPC; 50/125µm; 850nm/1300nm LED/VCSEL; Modal Bandwidth: 2000MHz/km at 850nm; OFNR (Riser) Jacket; Cable OD: 1.6mm; Min Bend Radius: 7.5mm (0.29in)

Engineered for Optimal Performance

Built with laser-optimized multimode fiber (LOMMF), the OM4 fiber patch cable is ideal for 850 nm and 1350 nm Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) and LED sources. Precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules maintain accurate fiber alignment to prevent connectivity issues and minimize insertion loss. Designed for reliability in high-density network applications, the LC to LC UPC polished fiber ends greatly improves return loss characteristics over older PC polishing techniques which may negatively affect performance.

OFNR Riser Rated

Housed in an OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) flame-retardant jacket, this Riser-rated OM4 fiber cable is engineered to minimize vertical flame propagation between building floors. It enables safer cable installations in riser spaces and vertical shafts within commercial buildings, supporting compliance with fire codes in multi-story structures and other regulated environments.

Wide Compatibility

This multimode 50/125µm fiber optic patch cord is backward compatible with OM3 and 1/10/40 Gbps networks, facilitating reliable data transmission in legacy fiber environments.

Applications

- Use in 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel applications
- Supports VCSEL laser and LED light sources
- OFNR riser-rated for safe and compliant cable installations in vertical shafts and riser spaces within buildings
