MicroConnect FIB422005P 5m OM4 LC/SC Network Cable

When you need a reliable link for high-speed data centres or campus networks, a bend-insensitive fibre optic cable makes the difference between frequent downtime and smooth operation. The MicroConnect FIB422005P 5m OM4 LC/SC Network Cable provides a sturdy 5 m connection that supports 10 Gb, 40 Gb and even 100 Gb Ethernet, ensuring you can move large files quickly and keep your network stable.

Benefits of MicroConnect Network Cable

You enjoy consistent performance even when the cable is routed around tight corners, thanks to its low-attenuation design. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic fumes, giving you peace of mind in confined spaces. A 25-year warranty means you won’t have to worry about premature failures. The pink Erika violet colour makes it easy to identify during installation. Compatibility with common transceivers means you can integrate it without extra adapters.

Usages of an OM4 Network Cable

Ideal for modern high-speed networks, this cable fits naturally into everyday setups:

• Connecting 10G SR or 10G LRM transceivers in server racks.
• Linking switches and routers that require OM4 fibre for 40 Gb Ethernet.
• Extending fibre runs between data-centre pods where space is limited.
• Building resilient uplinks for storage area networks (SAN).
• Creating reliable connections in laboratory or research facilities that demand low latency.

Why Choose a MicroConnect Network Cable

Many buyers hesitate, fearing that fibre cables are fragile or that they will need frequent replacements. Others worry about compatibility with existing hardware or the safety of the cable material. These concerns often lead to over-specifying or choosing cheaper, lower-grade options that later cause signal loss or fire-safety issues.

MicroConnect solves these doubts with a bend-insensitive OM4 design that tolerates tight routing without degrading performance, LSZH construction for fire safety, and a long-term 25-year warranty that guarantees durability. The cable’s standard LC and SC connectors match the majority of network equipment, so you can install it confidently knowing it will work with your current infrastructure.
