Microconnect FIB440404P InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 4 m LC Violet

The Microconnect FIB440404P is a 4 m OM4 multimode fibre optic patch cord with LC connectors on both ends. With a 50 µm core and full-duplex capability, this 50/125 OM4 cable supports high-speed links such as 10G SR, 40G BIDI SR and QSFP+/SFP+ transceivers for 10/40/100G Ethernet. The violet jacket and LSZH construction make it identifiable in cabling runs while meeting common telecom and data-centre standards.

Advantages

OM4 multimode construction provides higher bandwidth and longer reach for short-range high-speed applications compared with lower-grade multimode fibres. LC–LC connectors ensure reliable small-form-factor connections in dense patch panels. The LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire and the 4 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel links.

Suitable for

• 10G SR and 10G Ethernet links
• 40G BIDI SR and 40G Ethernet using QSFP+ modules
• 100G short-reach links and data-centre connectivity
• Patching between switches, servers and optical transceivers

How to use

Inspect connectors for dust and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before installation. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding duplex adapter or transceiver port until it clicks. Use gentle routing to avoid tight bends and secure the cable along cable trays or within racks to prevent strain. For removal, depress the latch on the LC connector and withdraw straight out.

Recommendations

Use OM4 patch cords for short-reach high-speed links in data centres and enterprise networks. Maintain proper bend radius, avoid excessive pulling force, and store connectors with dust caps when not in use to ensure consistent optical performance.
