Frequently Asked Questions
What is OM4 multimode fiber used for?
OM4 multimode fiber is designed for high-speed, short-to-medium distance applications in data centers and enterprise networks. It supports 100 Gb Ethernet over distances up to 150 meters, making it ideal for interconnecting servers, switches, and storage systems within campus environments.
What does OFNP plenum-rated mean?
OFNP (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Plenum) rating indicates the cable is safe for installation in plenum spaces—air-handling areas above suspended ceilings and between floor joists. It meets fire safety codes and produces minimal smoke if exposed to flame.
Can this OM4 cable work with older network equipment?
Yes. This OM4 100G fiber optic cable is backward compatible with 10 Gb, 25 Gb, and 40 Gb Ethernet standards, allowing seamless integration with legacy infrastructure while supporting future 100 GbE upgrades.
What is Type-A polarity in MPO connectors?
Type-A polarity defines the fiber arrangement within the MPO connector. It ensures correct signal routing in straight-through applications where both ends of the cable maintain identical fiber positions, preventing signal crossover and maintaining data integrity.
