StarTech.com 5m (16.4ft) LC/UPC to LC/UPC OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable, 50/125µm LOMMF/VCSEL Zipcord Fiber, 100G, Low Insertion Loss – LSZH Fiber Jumper Cord
| Metric | Spec. |
|---|---|
| Cable length | 5 m (16.4 ft) |
| Fibre type | OM4 multimode (50/125 µm) |
| Connectors | LC/UPC to LC/UPC, male |
| Data transfer rate | 100 Gbit/s |
| Jacket | LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) |
| Operating temperature | -20 to 60 °C |
Engineered for 100G performance with low insertion loss
Precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules align the fibre core to the cladding with accuracy. LC/UPC polished ends improve return loss versus older PC polish. This design supports 850 nm VCSEL sources used in 100G SR10 and 40G SR4 links. Because the cable is laser-optimised OM4, it maintains signal integrity over short to medium distances in high-density racks.
Backward compatibility with legacy multimode networks
This 50/125 µm OM4 patch cord is compatible with OM3 infrastructure. It also supports 1/10/40 Gbps Ethernet over LC-based multimode links. So you can connect new SFP+ ports to existing patch panels without re-cabling the entire plant. In practice, this reduces downtime during phased upgrades.
LSZH jacket for safer indoor cable runs
The LSZH jacket emits limited smoke and zero halogen when exposed to heat or flame. This is beneficial in trains, aircraft, and poorly ventilated plant rooms. It also meets typical UK building code expectations for low-toxicity cabling. Note that fire performance may vary by installation; confirm local compliance with your building inspector.
Full duplex zipcord design for tidy routing
The duplex zipcord structure keeps two fibre strands organised and reduces tangling. This helps with neat rack-to-rack runs and quick connector identification. The cable colour is aqua, which is commonly used to mark OM4 multimode fibre. Connector genders are male, designed for standard LC ports on SFP+ modules.
Wide operating range for UK environments
The cable operates and stores safely between -20 and 60 °C. This suits most UK data centre and office conditions. The package weight is 84 g, and the cable weight is 74 g. Dimensions are 200 mm x 220 mm x 19 mm. However, the input does not specify a warranty length or UKCA marking status; please verify these with the distributor before purchase.
Box contents
- 1 x StarTech.com 5m LC/UPC to LC/UPC OM4 multimode duplex fibre optic cable (LSZH jacket)
Check before you buy
- Confirm your transceivers support OM4 multimode at 850 nm for 100G SR10 or 40G SR4 applications.
- Verify LC/UPC ports on your patch panels, switches, and SFP+ modules match the connector polish.
- Check local fire-safety requirements for LSZH versus plenum or FRNC jackets in your building.
- Confirm the manufacturer warranty region and whether UKCA marking is required for your installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this cable compatible with OM3 infrastructure?
A: Yes, OM4 is backward compatible with OM3 multimode links and LC ports.
Q: What applications suit this cable?
A: It is ideal for SANs, data servers, and SFP+ based 40/100G multimode links.
Q: Does the LSZH jacket affect performance?
A: No, the jacket is for safety; optical performance is set by fibre and polish.
