Frequently Asked Questions
What is an OM4 trunk cable used for?
An OM4 trunk cable like the Panduit FYZWP88Y005F028 is used to connect high-speed network equipment in data centers and telecommunications facilities. With 48 fibers, it provides multiple parallel paths for 40G and 100G traffic, enabling efficient backbone connectivity and reducing the number of individual cable runs needed.
Why is plenum-rated fiber optic cable important?
Plenum-rated cables have a fire-resistant jacket (LSZH — Low Smoke Zero Halogen) that meets building codes for installation in air-handling spaces and plenums. This ensures safety compliance and prevents toxic smoke release in case of fire, making them essential for modern commercial and data center environments.
Can this 48-fiber cable support 100G connections?
Yes. The OM4 specification and multimode fiber design of this trunk cable fully support 100G Ethernet standards, as well as 40G links. The 48-fiber configuration provides multiple channels, allowing simultaneous high-speed connections across your network infrastructure.
What is the difference between OM4 and other fiber types?
OM4 is a premium multimode fiber offering superior bandwidth and distance capabilities compared to OM3. It supports higher data rates (up to 100G) over longer distances, making it the preferred choice for modern data center backbone applications and high-density fiber networks.
