LEONI Kerpen LEONI LWL-Kbl 50µm OM4 Suhner LC/SC 5m - Kabel - 5 m

With a modal bandwidth of 4700 MHz·km at 850 nm, this LEONI Kerpen OM4 patch cable delivers headroom for 40G and 100G Ethernet links up to 150 meters. The 5-meter length bridges racks and adjacent cabinets without excess slack, while LC and SC connectors fit the most common transceiver and patch panel ports.

Overview

Built around a 50/125 µm graded-index multimode core, the cable meets OM4 performance levels defined by TIA/EIA-568-C.3, ISO/IEC 11801, and EN 50173-1. The aqua LSZH jacket identifies OM4 at a glance and releases minimal smoke and toxic fumes in a fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces with strict safety requirements. Each connector is factory polished and tested to ensure insertion loss below 0.3 dB and return loss above 30 dB.

What stands out

• OM4 fiber supports 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet over multimode infrastructure.
• LC connector on one end, SC on the other—ideal for mixed equipment environments.
• LSZH jacket is halogen-free and flame-retardant for safer indoor installations.
• Aqua colour conforms to industry-standard OM4 identification.
• 5-meter length reduces the need for couplers or extra patch panels in short runs.
