DIGITUS OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Patchcord with LC to LC Connectors, 10 Meter Cable Length, Full Duplex, 50 µm Core Diameter

The DIGITUS OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Patchcord with LC to LC Connectors provides a reliable and high-performance solution for modern network infrastructures. Measuring 10 meters in length, this professional-grade patch cable is designed to support high-speed data transfer rates over medium distances in enterprise environments, data centers, and telecommunication networks. Utilizing an OM4 multimode fiber type with a 50 µm core diameter and full duplex transmission capabilities, it ensures efficient signal integrity and minimal data loss for demanding networking applications.

Advantages

Constructed with high-quality components, this DIGITUS fiber optic patchcord features ceramic ferrules within the LC connectors to ensure precise alignment and long-term durability during frequent reconnections. The cable incorporates a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material, which significantly minimizes the emission of toxic and corrosive gasses in the event of a fire, making it safer for indoor installations. Each cable is individually packaged and includes a dedicated test report, verifying its performance and quality prior to deployment. The distinctive pink color facilitates easy visual identification within crowded patch panels and server racks.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches, routers, and patch panels in enterprise data centers
• High-speed local area network (LAN) installations requiring OM4 performance
• Telecommunication network backbones and server rooms
• Structured cabling systems utilizing duplex multimode connections

This fiber optic cable may not be suitable for long-distance telecommunications that require single-mode fiber infrastructure, nor is it designed for outdoor installations without additional protective conduit due to its standard indoor jacket specification.

• Connector type: LC male to LC male
• Transmission type: Full duplex
• Cable type: I-VH
• Jacket material: Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH)
• Connector ferrule material: Ceramic
• Cable diameter: 2 mm
• Color: Pink (RAL 4003)

How to use

Before installation, inspect the LC connectors for any dust or debris, and clean them using appropriate optical fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Carefully remove the protective dust caps from both connectors. Align the LC connector with the port on your network device, transceiver, or patch panel, and gently push it straight in until you hear a click, which indicates that the latching mechanism is securely engaged. Route the 10-meter cable along designated cable management pathways, avoiding sharp bends, excessive pulling tension, or crushing forces that could damage the internal glass fibers and degrade signal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network hardware and transceivers support OM4 multimode fiber and LC connections
• Measure the required distance to ensure the 10-meter length is sufficient for your cable run without leaving excessive slack
• Check local building safety codes to confirm whether LSZH jacket requirements apply to your installation environment

Usage recommendations: Handle the fiber optic patchcord with care to avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius. Always keep the dust caps on the connectors until the exact moment of installation to prevent contamination of the optical end-faces.
