FO Jumper Cable ROLINE 50/125µm OM4 LC/LC Low-Loss 3m

The ROLINE FO Jumper Cable 50/125µm OM4 LC/LC Low-Loss 3m is a duplex multimode fiber jumper designed for high-bandwidth network links. It uses OM4 multimode fiber with LC connectors and low-loss assembly to deliver reduced insertion loss and high modal bandwidth, suitable for short to medium run lengths in data centers, building backbones and campus networks.

Advantages

The cable’s OM4 fiber and high-quality connectors provide very low insertion loss and improved reflection performance compared with standard connectors, enabling reliable transmission at high data rates. With a modal bandwidth of 4700 MHz·km and low-loss LC/LC terminations (typical attenuation around 0.15 dB for low-loss LC versus 0.5 dB for standard LC), the jumper supports demanding applications while keeping insertion loss to a minimum. The assembly and outer materials follow ROLINE quality standards and the cable is color-coded purple for easy identification.

Suitable for

• 10 Gb/s Ethernet and Fibre Channel links up to the supported OM4 distance
• Short interconnects in data centers and server rooms
• Building backbone and medium-length campus backbone connections

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm, OM4
• Connectors: LC to LC, duplex, low-loss
• Length: 3 m
• Modal bandwidth: 4700 MHz·km
• Typical low-loss LC attenuation: ~0.15 dB (typical standard LC: ~0.5 dB)
• Color: purple

How to use

Connect one LC connector to the source transceiver and the other LC connector to the destination transceiver or patch panel, ensuring correct duplex orientation. Avoid tight bends and excessive tensile stress during installation; follow standard fiber handling practices to preserve low insertion loss. Use appropriate dust caps when connectors are not mated and clean connector end-faces before final connection.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the ROLINE OM4 low-loss LC/LC jumper in environments where high bandwidth and low insertion loss are required, such as data centers and backbone links. Verify connector cleanliness and avoid bending below the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius during routing.
