The JBX65503 OM4 LC/LC 2-strand micro armored fiber cable represents the pinnacle of multimode fiber technology for modern data centers and enterprise networks. Manufactured in the United States to exacting standards, this 25-meter cable combines rugged protection with superior optical performance, ensuring reliable signal transmission in mission-critical environments. KEY TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: This cable features OM4 50/125 multimode construction with bend-insensitive fiber technology, delivering exceptional optical characteristics. Insertion loss is measured at ≤0.35dB (0.15dB typical), while return loss exceeds 20dB, meeting industry standards for low-loss connectivity. Attenuation performance is tested per ANSI/TIA/EIA-455-171-A-2001, guaranteeing consistency and reliability across installations. DESIGN & PROTECTION: The micro armor jacketing provides crucial mechanical protection during routing and installation, significantly reducing the risk of fiber stress and breakage. The 3.0mm outside diameter enables compact routing through cable trays and conduit. Each cable features 18" furcated legs that facilitate clean, organized terminations at network equipment, improving aesthetics and maintainability. COMPLIANCE & CERTIFICATION: Fully compliant with RoHS/ELV directives and EU regulation 2002/95/EC, this cable meets stringent environmental standards. TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance makes it eligible for U.S. government and GSA contract purchases. The plenum-rated (OFNP) polyvinyl chloride jacketing ensures fire safety compliance for installation in air return plenums above drop ceilings. APPLICATIONS: Ideal for data center interconnects, enterprise backbone cabling, and high-bandwidth network infrastructure. The OM4 specification supports 10Gbps Ethernet to 550 meters and 40Gbps to 150 meters, making it future-proof for evolving network demands. CUSTOM OPTIONS & AVAILABILITY: Beyond the standard 25-meter length, custom lengths are available to match your specific installation requirements. Free standard shipping applies on orders exceeding $99, with expedited options available. Ships from distribution centers in Danville, CA and Fort Worth, TX for rapid delivery. All cables include a 90-day limited warranty providing confidence in your investment.
