StarTech.com 15m (50ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable

If you are struggling with unreliable connections in high-speed data centres, the wrong fibre can be the hidden cause of dropped packets and costly downtime. The StarTech.com 15m (50ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable is a premium patch cord designed to carry 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps signals over long runs, giving you a stable backbone for modern network demands.

Why the StarTech.com 15m (50ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable is the answer to your high-performance networking challenges

Network upgrades often fail because existing cabling cannot support the higher bandwidth of 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps links. This leads to frequent errors, slower application response and frustrated users. The StarTech.com 15m (50ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable solves the problem with laser-optimised multimode fibre, a flame-retardant OFNR jacket and precise UPC polishing, ensuring low loss and high return performance even in dense rack environments.

Usages of StarTech.com 15m (50ft) LC to LC (UPC) OM4 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable

Ideal for a range of professional settings, this cable can be deployed in:

• Data centre uplinks where 40 Gbps or 100 Gbps throughput is required.
• Enterprise campus networks connecting switches across multiple floors.
• High-density server racks needing compact uniboot LC connectors.
• Riser shafts in multi-storey buildings that must meet fire-code standards.
• Legacy OM3 installations that need a future-proof upgrade path.
