STARTECH 450FBLCLC5PP 5m LC/UPC OM4 fibre optic cable

SKU CH-PMRA-SEVZH MPN 450FBLCLC5PP

5m LC/UPC duplex OM4 multimode cable supports 40/100G links with push-pull tabs for dense installs

  • Enables 40/100G network connections with OM4 multimode fiber
  • Push-pull tabs allow quick connection and removal in high-density setups
  • Bend-insensitive fiber with molded strain reliefs maintains low attenuation during bends
  • Retractable strain-relief housings enable toolless in-field polarity swapping
  • Color-coded LC-Duplex connectors ensure error-free polarity configuration

5 m OM4 LC/UPC duplex cable

This 5-metre multimode patch cord uses 50/125 µm OM4 fibre with LC/UPC connectors on both ends. It supports 10, 40 and 100 GbE links and is backward compatible with OM3 and 1/10/40 G networks. Precision ceramic ferrules and UPC polishing minimise insertion loss and improve return loss for reliable high-density connections. Laser-optimised OM4 fibre suits 850 nm and 1300 nm VCSEL or LED sources.

Suits dense patch panels needing quick polarity

Installers working in high-density racks benefit from push-pull tabs and toolless retractable strain-relief housings that allow in-field polarity swaps. Colour-coded duplex connectors prevent polarity errors during deployment. Builders who require single-mode fibre, longer reach than 5 metres, or connector types other than LC/UPC should select a different cable.

Push-pull tabs and toolless housings speed

Push-pull tabs enable fast mating and removal without tools, while moulded strain reliefs protect bend-insensitive fibre during macro and micro bends. Retractable strain-relief housings let technicians swap polarity on site. The main risk is contaminating the ceramic ferrule end-faces; always inspect and clean connectors before mating to avoid insertion-loss spikes.

Questions about this item

What transceiver ports are needed for the LC/UPC connectors on this cable?

You need transceivers or patch panels with LC/UPC duplex ports that accept 50/125 µm multimode ferrules.

Will this OM4 cable work with my existing OM3 patch panels and 10G transceivers?

Yes, the OM4 multimode fiber is backward compatible with OM3 infrastructure and supports 1, 10 and 40G network speeds.

How can I verify the polarity is correct after connecting the push-pull tabs?

The colour-coded LC duplex connectors let you confirm TX and RX fibres match the port labels; the retractable strain-relief housings allow toolless polarity swapping if needed.
