Professional FAQs
1) What’s the difference between OM3, OM4, and OM5?
OM3 supports up to 10G–100G Ethernet up to 100 m; OM4 extends that to 150 m with improved modal bandwidth; OM5 introduces SWDM (Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing) for 400G parallel optics and backward compatibility with OM3/OM4 links.
2) Is this cable bend-insensitive?
Yes. Built with Corning ClearCurve® fiber, it maintains optical performance even at tight bends as small as 7.5 mm radius—ideal for high-density racks and patch panels.
3) What polarity does it ship with by default?
Default configuration is Type B, Female-to-Female MPO (UPC polish). Custom polarities (Type A or C) are available upon request.
4) Can I order custom lengths or connector types?
Yes. Conversions Tech offers complete custom builds for length, polarity, connector type, and core count. Please specify requirements at order time.
5) Are test reports included with each cable?
Yes. Every cable is factory tested and shipped with individual insertion and return loss data sheets for quality assurance.
6) What jacket material is used, and is it fire-rated?
The jacket is LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero Halogen), providing flame resistance and low toxicity per CE CPR (EN 50575) fire-safety standards—suitable for data centers and confined plenum areas.
7) Does this support parallel optics transceivers?
Yes. Fully compatible with SR4, SR8, and SWDM transceivers for 40G, 100G, and 400G Ethernet. Verify polarity and core count per your transceiver map.
8) Is this cable field-repairable?
No. MPO/MTP terminations require factory precision ferrule alignment. For damaged ends, replacements or custom re-termination services are recommended.
9) How do I maintain and clean the connectors?
Use lint-free fiber cleaning pens or swabs designed for MPO connectors. Always replace dust caps when not in use to prevent contamination and signal loss.
10) What’s the minimum bend radius for installation?
For optimal performance, maintain a 7.5 mm minimum bend radius for OM4/OM5 and 10 mm for OM3 during routing and cable management.
