ACT 30m Multimode OM4 50/125 Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable, 8 Fibers, LC to LC, LSZH, Aqua RL4303

Supporting 100 Gbps over multimode fiber, this ACT pre-terminated cable delivers 8 OM4 fibers in a rugged indoor/outdoor LSZH jacket, ready for high-density backbone links up to 30 meters.

Overview

The ACT RL4303 is a 30-meter pre-terminated fiber optic cable with 8 multimode OM4 fibers. Each end is factory terminated with LC connectors, ensuring low insertion loss and consistent performance. The 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter is optimized for 850 nm VCSEL transmission, making it ideal for data centers, campus backbones, and enterprise networks where 40G and 100G speeds are required over short to medium distances.

What stands out

• OM4 multimode fiber supports 100 Gbps Ethernet up to 150 meters using 850 nm VCSELs.
• Indoor/outdoor rated LSZH jacket allows direct burial or aerial installation without conduit.
• Factory-terminated LC connectors on both ends eliminate field polishing and reduce installation time.
• Aqua-colored jacket provides instant identification of OM4 fiber type.
• 8 fibers in a single cable enable parallel optics or multiple duplex links in one pull.
