What does a fibre optic patch cable do?
A fibre optic patch cable connects network components in professional IT environments where high speeds and long distances are required. You need this type of cable when copper cables fall short, for example in data centres, server rooms or connections between buildings where electromagnetic interference may be a problem.

Why choose OM5 multimode?
This patch cable uses OM5 multimode technology with short wave division multiplexing (SWDM) and wideband multimode fibre (WBMMF). This means you can use multiple wavelengths simultaneously over the same fibre, allowing you to get more bandwidth out of your infrastructure. OM5 was specially developed for future network applications and offers more flexibility than older multimode standards.

Speeds up to 400 Gbit/s possible
With this cable you can achieve data speeds of up to 400 Gbit/s, depending on your network equipment. The 50/125μm core ensures optimal light transmission at these high speeds. This makes the cable suitable for modern data centre applications and future expansions of your network.

Practical considerations for a 20 metre length
The 20 metre length is ideal for connections within a single building or between nearby server cabinets. The SC duplex connectors are robust and easy to identify thanks to their grey colour. Please ensure that your receiving equipment also supports OM5 and the correct SC connectors. The light green cable makes identification in cable trays easier.
