Why choose it

OM3 fiber supports 10 Gbps Ethernet up to 300 meters at 850 nm, making it ideal for high-density data center links. The duplex zipcord construction keeps the two fibers neatly paired, and the turquoise jacket allows quick identification of OM3 in mixed fiber environments.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting switches to patch panels in data centers
• Linking servers to SAN switches
• Extending 10G links between racks
• Upgrading legacy OM2 links to OM3 for higher bandwidth

Good to know

This cable is compliant with TIA/EIA-568-C.3 and ISO/IEC 11801 structured cabling standards, ensuring interoperability with standard LC and SC interfaces.
