Customized Ultra Low Loss Duplex Fiber Patch Cable, LC/SC/FC/ST, OM4

Network installers should begin with the actual mating interfaces and site fiber records before assigning this product to a link. This project-specific fiber patch cable is built to the specific arrangement the project specifies: connector styles, polish, fiber mode, jacket and length are all specified at order time and the cable assembly is factory terminated and optically tested before dispatch.

Product Highlights

• Bend Insensitive Fiber with 7.5mm Min. Bend Radius
• Precision Zirconia Ferrule Connectors Ensure Low Loss
• Duplex Zipcord Construction Reduces Risk of Damage from Crimping
• Available in LC, SC, FC, and ST ULL Connectors with 0.08dB Typ. IL
• Available in Riser (OFNR), LSZH, and Plenum (OFNP) Cable Jackets

The project-specific program covers the combinations that stock lists cannot: mixed connector families, non-standard jackets, unusual lengths, marking and packaging to the project specification. The cable assembly is terminated and tested exactly like a stock product, with the arrangement confirmed before manufacturing.

A duplex jumper is two fibers with a defined A-to-B crossover. Getting polarity right at the cord level keeps the path consistent end to end, which is why these assemblies are built and tested as a pair rather than as two distinct strands.

This OM4 product serves the short-reach fabric of the data center: 10G and 25G server uplinks, 40G and 100G SR4 spine links and the inter-row runs between them. On OM4 glass, 10G Ethernet holds to 400 meters and 100G SR4 to 100 meters, which covers the overwhelming majority of in-hall routes with margin to spare.

Regular lengths cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), with project-specific length obtainable beyond the list. Specifying the measured pathway length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the optical connectors.

Every assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on each cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The optical cable ships with dust caps on both connectors and the test result obtainable on ask for.

Refer to this arrangement by connector pair, fiber mode and length when asking for a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, marking or project packaging, send the specification with the request and the factory will check the build before manufacturing. Project support is available to reconcile the ordered configuration with the intended installation.
