ZORA outdoor non-armored OM4 loose tube fiber optic cable FAQ

1.What are the main advantages of OM4 multimode fibre optic cable over other types?

OM4 multimode fibre optic cable offers significantly higher bandwidth - distance product compared to lower - grade multimode cables like OM1 and OM2. It can support higher data rates over longer distances, typically enabling 10Gbps transmission up to 550 meters and 40Gbps/100Gbps over shorter reaches. This makes it ideal for high - density data center applications where large amounts of data need to be transferred quickly.

2.What are the typical applications of OM4 multimode fibre optic cable?

OM4 is commonly used in data centers for interconnecting servers, storage devices, and network switches. It is also suitable for campus network backbones where high - speed, long - distance connections between buildings are required. In addition, it can be used in enterprise LANs to support high - bandwidth applications such as video surveillance, cloud computing access, and large - scale data sharing.

3.How does the installation of OM4 multimode fibre optic cable differ from single - mode fibre optic cable?

Installation of OM4 multimode fibre is generally more forgiving in terms of alignment during connection. Multimode fibres have a larger core diameter (50 micrometers for OM4), which allows for easier connection and alignment compared to single - mode fibres with a much smaller core diameter (9 micrometers). However, like single - mode, proper cleaning of the fibre ends and use of appropriate connectors are crucial for optimal performance. Also, when installing in a data center, cable management for OM4 is important to avoid signal interference and ensure easy maintenance.

4.What is the maximum transmission distance for OM4 multimode fibre optic cable at different data rates?

At 10Gbps, the maximum transmission distance is around 550 meters. For 40Gbps, it can reach up to approximately 150 meters, and for 100Gbps, the distance is typically around 100 meters. These distances may vary slightly depending on the quality of the cable, connectors, and the optical transceivers used.

5.Can OM4 multimode fibre optic cable be used in outdoor environments?

Yes, OM4 multimode fibre optic cable can be used in outdoor environments, but it needs to be properly protected. Special outdoor - rated OM4 cables are available, which are designed to withstand environmental factors such as moisture, temperature variations, and mechanical stress. These cables often have additional shielding and protective jackets. However, proper installation techniques, including burying or using aerial installation methods with appropriate support structures, are necessary to ensure long - term reliable performance.

6.How do I maintain and troubleshoot OM4 multimode fibre optic cable systems?

Regular maintenance includes periodic inspection of the cable for any signs of physical damage, such as cuts or bends. Cleaning the fibre connectors with appropriate cleaning tools (e.g., lint - free wipes and isopropyl alcohol) is essential to prevent dust and debris from causing signal loss. To troubleshoot, first check for visible signs of damage. If there is a signal problem, use an optical time - domain reflectometer (OTDR) to detect breaks or excessive attenuation in the cable. Also, verify that the optical transceivers are working correctly and are properly configured for the OM4 cable system.
