Customized OM1/OM2 Indoor Multi-Fiber Breakout Cable, LC/SC/FC/ST/LSH/Unterminated

For project teams, the key is to match this exact configuration to the port schedule, optical budget and delivery documentation. This custom multi-fiber cable is a pre-terminated indoor unit built exactly to the setup the project specifies: connector styles and polish at every end, fiber count, jacket rating, breakout geometry and length are all chosen at order time, and the finished trunk is optically tested leg by leg before dispatch. The tight-buffered breakout build gives each fiber its own 2.0mm or 0.9mm leg, so this trunk terminates directly into panels and hardware without a splice tray or fan-out kit.

Product Highlights

OM1 and OM2 cabling remains in service in industrial controls, building automation and older campus networks. The assembly matches that plant: the 62.5/125 or 50/125 core mates correctly with the installed infrastructure, avoiding the modal mismatch that mixing core sizes would create.

When a legacy trunk fails, the proper repair is a cable that matches the existing fiber grade. Mixing OM1 with OM3 introduces a core-size transition that adds unpredictable loss, so building the replacement trunk on the original grade is cheaper than fault finding a mismatched one.

The breakout is where a trunk becomes usable. While staggered legs reach a column of ports without slack piling up at one end, equal-length legs suit a straight row of adjacent ports. The 2.0mm legs survive patching-field handling; the 0.9mm version suits protected routing inside panels and cassettes. Selecting the geometry at order time means this assembly arrives matching the hardware it serves.

A pre-terminated trunk is only as good as its journey through the pathway. The optional pulling eye protects the connectorized end during the pull and keeps this trunk from twisting, which matters on long riser runs and congested trays. The deployment load rating on the datasheet is the number the pulling rope ought to respect, not the weight of the reel.

A multi-fiber trunk is planned once and existing once, so the planning deserves the hour it takes. Measure the path through the actual containment, note the bend space at the two ends, and decide which end gets pulled. State the pulling eye need with the order if the path is long or congested. At the far end, leave the dressing slack this panel or cassette needs - the datasheet breakout lengths are the default, and other geometries are confirmed prior to production.

Terminating OM1/OM2 fiber in the field means a splicer, a tray location, consumables and the craft time to do it well - multiplied by each fiber in this trunk. A pre-terminated unit moves all of that work to the factory floor, where polishing, inspection and testing happen under controlled conditions. The installer who receives this cable routes it, dresses the legs and mates these connectors; the connection is ready for light the identical hour. For multi-fiber counts the saving is not linear but compounding, because each field-terminated leg is a different chance for a rework visit.

Fiber count is chosen at order time: 4 Fibers, 6 Fibers, 8 Fibers, 12 Fibers, 24 Fibers are standard options for this build. Selecting the count is a capacity decision - plan the active links, add the spares the servicing practice calls for, and this trunk arrives with each leg terminated and tested.

Standard length options cover the common routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 30m (98ft), with custom length offered beyond the list, including foot-based builds for projects specified in imperial units. Specifying the measured path length keeps the slack out of the tray and the strain off these connectors.

Each trunk is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested leg by leg before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every fiber, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. This assembly ships with dust caps on each connector and the test results offered on specify.

Refer to this setup by fiber mode, fiber count, connector pair, breakout geometry and length when ordering a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options - mixed connector families, jacket ratings, pulling eye, identification or project packing - send the need with the inquiry and the factory will verify the build prior to production. Our project support can review the requirement with Shenzhen production before a formal quotation is issued.
