LC UPC to LC UPC Duplex OM4, 2.0mm, ofnr Fiber Patch Cable
For Pakistani procurement and engineering teams, the specification provides a practical basis for checking compatibility before production is requested. This OM4 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM4 glass and optically tested as an entire unit. The duplex zipcord build keeps the transmit and receive strands paired in one unit for fast, error-free patching.

Multimode reach for the data hall
This OM4 unit serves the short-reach fabric of the data center: 10G and 25G server uplinks, 40G and 100G SR4 spine links and the inter-row runs between them. On OM4 glass, 10G Ethernet holds to 400 meters and 100G SR4 to 100 meters, which covers the overwhelming majority of in-hall routes with margin to spare.
Why OM4 replaced OM3 in new builds
OM4 raises the effective modal bandwidth to 4700 MHz·km at 850nm, and that headroom translates directly into reach for the higher-speed interfaces. Because the price difference against OM3 has largely disappeared, new cabling plants standardize on OM4 and keep OM3 only for matching present installations.
Length Options
Catalogue lengths cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), with custom-built length offered beyond the list. Specifying the measured path length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the optical interfaces.
Quality Control and Testing
Every manufactured assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The installed cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result offered on specify.
Ordering and Factory Support
Refer to this setup by connector pair, fiber mode and length when specifying a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, identification or project packing, send the specification with the request and the factory will make certain of the build before factory assembly. For Pakistan, a clear port or maintenance schedule helps us confirm the correct factory-built configuration before supply.
