INFRALAN OM4 12G U-DQ(ZN)BH 1x12 fiber cable LSZH black, 7.5mm, Eca (MPN 54512D2E-CPR)

The INFRALAN OM4 12G U-DQ(ZN)BH 1x12 fiber cable is a compact indoor multimode cable designed for high-speed short-range links in data centers and enterprise networks. It contains twelve OM4 multimode fibers in a 1x12 ribbon-style unit, offering improved bandwidth and 12G performance over short distances. The cable has a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) black jacket, a 7.5 mm outer diameter and is constructed to meet Euroclass Eca for reaction to fire.

Advantages

This cable combines OM4 multimode performance with a slim 7.5 mm profile to save space in cable trays and racks while supporting high-density fiber deployments. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive smoke in the event of fire, which is important for indoor installations such as server rooms and telecommunications rooms. The U-DQ(ZN)BH structure provides mechanical protection and stability for the fibers, and the 1x12 unit format simplifies routing and termination for multi-fiber connections.

Suitable for

• Short-range high-speed links in data centers and server rooms
• Multimode Ethernet networks (10G, 40G and 100G applications using parallel optics within OM4 reach)
• High-density fiber panels and patching in racks and distribution frames
• Indoor backbone cabling where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

Когда может быть непригоден

This cable is not intended for outdoor use, direct burial, or prolonged exposure to sunlight; its construction and jacket material are optimized for indoor environments. For long-haul multimode or singlemode links that exceed OM4 maximum practical distances at the target data rates, a singlemode fiber solution or different multimode grade may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM4 multimode
• Fiber count and format: 12 fibers in a 1x12 ribbon-style unit
• Performance class: 12G-capable multimode for short-range high-speed links
• Outer diameter: approximately 7.5 mm
• Jacket material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen), black
• Reaction-to-fire rating: Euroclass Eca
• Construction: U-DQ(ZN)BH structured multimode indoor cable

How to use

Plan the route through racks, trays or conduits keeping bend radii within manufacturer recommendations for OM4 fibers. Strip the outer jacket and any protective elements carefully to expose the ribbon fibers for connectorization or splicing. Use appropriate fiber cleaning, cleaving and fusion splicing or multi-fiber connector assemblies as required by your termination method. Label both ends clearly and test each fiber with an optical loss test set or a certified multimode test kit to verify insertion loss and continuity according to the intended application.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended environment: indoor installations only; not suitable for outdoor or direct-burial use
• Required data rates and link distances to confirm OM4 reach for your application
• Termination method: connectors or fusion splicing for 12-fiber units
• Space constraints and routing: 7.5 mm diameter for high-density cabling

Usage recommendations

Maintain minimum bend radii and avoid tight kinks; perform end-to-end testing after installation; store and handle ribbon fibers with care to prevent microbends. Use qualified technicians for termination and testing to ensure expected OM4 multimode performance in high-speed links.
