Why choose it

The cable is laser-optimised for OM5 performance, providing plenty of headroom for emerging SWDM4 applications. Its LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gas emissions in the event of fire, making it safer for confined spaces such as data centres. With low insertion loss and high return loss, it helps keep the optical link stable and error-free.

Ideal use cases

• Data centre and enterprise network patching
• Direct connection between switches, servers and storage devices
• High-speed application support including 40/100GbE and SWDM4

Good to know

OM5 multimode fibre is designed to support short wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM), which allows multiple wavelengths to be transmitted over a single fibre pair, effectively increasing bandwidth capacity without additional cabling.
