Cablenet 0.5m OM4 50GB/125GB LC-LC Duplex Erika Violet LSOH Fibre Network Cable

Network downtime can cripple a data centre, and a weak patch lead is often the hidden cause. The Cablenet 0.5m OM4 50GB/125GB LC-LC Duplex Erika Violet LSOH Fibre Network Cable is a high-performance fibre cable designed for fast, reliable connections in 10, 40 and 100 Gb/s environments. Its robust construction and low-smoke, zero-halogen jacket keep your infrastructure safe while delivering the speed you need.

Usages of a 0.5m fibre cable

A half-metre length is perfect for connecting equipment that sits close together, such as linking a server to a top-of-rack switch or joining two patch panels in a rack. The short run reduces excess slack, keeping cable management tidy and airflow unobstructed, which helps maintain optimal cooling in dense installations.

Benefits of Cablenet fibre cable

• High bandwidth: Supports 50 GB and 125 GB rates, ensuring future-proof data transfer.
• Backward compatible: Works with existing OM3 systems, protecting previous investments.
• Strain-relief boot: Prevents damage at the connector ends, extending cable life.
• LSZH jacket: Emits no toxic smoke if cut or burned, enhancing safety in confined spaces.
• Tested and certified: Each cable comes with manufacturing test results for confidence in performance.

Cablenet fibre cable

Choosing this Cablenet fibre cable means you get a product built for demanding data-centre workloads without the hassle of custom orders. The Erika violet colour makes it easy to identify in a sea of cables, while the duplex design provides two simultaneous connections, cutting down on the number of cables you need to run. Its compliance with IEC 332-1, RoHS and REACH standards guarantees it meets strict environmental and safety requirements, giving you peace of mind.

The cable’s 0.5 m length is ideal for short, high-speed links where space is at a premium. By using a dedicated OM4 multimode fibre, you benefit from lower attenuation and longer reach compared with older OM3 cables, meaning you can maintain signal quality even as your network grows. The included strain-relief boot and robust LSZH jacket protect the cable from physical stress and fire hazards, making it a reliable choice for both new builds and upgrades.
