Network patch cable engineered for high-density 10G to 100G links, promising consistent throughput. FLYPROFiber OM4 LC-LC Fiber Patch Cable helps installers feel confident when wiring crowded racks and SANs. Will this metre-length OM4 option meet your infrastructure needs or is single-mode required for longer runs?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Signal Integrity: Low insertion loss (≤0.3dB) and high return loss (≥30dB) for steady throughput
- • Best for: Data centre and SAN cabinet environments with short to medium multimode links
- • Not ideal for: Long-haul or single-mode backbone links that require single-mode fibre
OM4 multimode construction supports 10G to 100G Ethernet over short to medium distances. LSZH jacket and clear duplex labelling make it suited to high-density, safety-conscious installations.
High-capacity Ethernet links, thanks to OM4 multimode fibre
OM4 specification delivers a modal bandwidth of 4700 MHz·km at 850nm and defined maximum distances for common speeds (for example 10Gb up to 400 metres at 850nm and 40Gb up to 400 metres at 850nm). Duplex LC-LC termination is compatible with QSFP+, SFP+ and SFP28 transceivers.
Reliable support for 10G, 40G and 100G connections across typical data-centre spans. Ideal where short to medium multimode runs are required for high-throughput links.
Neat, low-loss routing in dense racks, with a tight bend radius
High-rated 50/125μm fibre and cladding are tolerant of bending, with a 7.5mm minimum bend radius to reduce microbending loss when routed in crowded cabinet pathways.
Easier cable management in SANs and high-density panels without sacrificing signal quality. Multiple bends in a cabinet are possible while maintaining stable transmission.
Consistent connector performance, thanks to UPC polish and ceramic ferrules
UPC-polished endfaces and zirconia ceramic ferrules ensure precise fibre alignment, keeping insertion loss at or below 0.3dB and return loss at or above 30dB.
Predictable, low-loss connections that are compatible with SFP+ and SFP28 transceivers, helping to avoid link errors and simplify troubleshooting.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this cable handle 40G and 100G connections?
A: Yes. OM4 multimode construction is designed for 40G and 100G Ethernet connections and is compatible with QSFP+, SFP+ and SFP28 transceivers.
Q: What maximum distance can I expect for 10Gb Ethernet?
A: 10Gb Ethernet is supported up to 400 metres at 850nm on OM4 multimode fibre, according to the specification provided.
Q: Is the jacket suitable for deployment in enclosed spaces?
A: Yes. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen release, making it appropriate for indoor installations such as data-centre racks and cable trays.
🏆 Our Verdict
Network engineers and IT teams who need reliable short to medium multimode links will value this cable for rack and SAN work. High OM4 bandwidth, tight bend tolerance and high-quality UPC-ceramic terminations combine to deliver steady, low-loss connections. The cable represents strong long-term value for dense, high-throughput installations where multimode is appropriate.
