Fibre optic cable BlueOptics 4Z57A10845 0.5 m LC OM4 Pink

The BlueOptics 4Z57A10845 0.5 m LC OM4 Pink is a short-length multimode fibre optic patch cable designed for high-density network environments. With OM4 fibre characteristics and LC duplex connectors, this cable supports high-speed data transmission over short to medium distances and is suitable for use in data centers, server rooms and office network racks. Its compact 0.5 metre length helps reduce cable clutter and maintains signal integrity in patching panels and transceiver connections.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable combines the improved bandwidth performance of OM4 multimode fibre with standard LC connectors to provide reliable, low-loss connections for modern networking equipment. The short 0.5 m length minimises excess slack and simplifies cable management in dense installations. The pink jacket colour aids visual identification, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection or mispatching during maintenance. The cable's tight tolerance core and connector polish ensure stable optical performance for high-speed applications.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between transceivers and switches in data centers
• Interconnects within server racks and network cabinets
• High-speed multimode links in campus and enterprise networks
• Short-distance optical links where OM4 bandwidth is required

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Length: 0.5 m
• Core/cladding diameter: 125 µm
• Jacket colour: Pink
• Application: short to medium distance high-speed data transmission

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or damage before connecting. Align the LC connectors with the device ports and insert until the latch engages; avoid forcing the connector. Use the 0.5 m cable to create direct patch links between SFP/SFP+ transceivers, switches and patch panels, keeping bends gentle and above the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibre. When disconnecting, press the LC latch and pull straight out to avoid stressing the fibre.

Recommendations

Store and route the cable in cable trays or management panels to prevent sharp bends. Clean connectors with appropriate fibre-cleaning tools prior to installation to maintain optimal transmission. Choose OM4 multimode cables for environments requiring higher bandwidth and reduced modal dispersion over short distances.
