Belden FP4K7LD003MR2XE OM4 Fiber Patch Cable Lc Lc 3M

Product Description

The Belden FP4K7LD003MR2XE is an OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations. The LC duplex connector configuration on both ends makes this cable well-suited for data center switching, server connections, and backbone runs where space-saving small-form-factor connectors are required. At 3 meters in length, it covers short equipment-bay and rack-to-rack runs without excess cable management overhead. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of patch cable as part of pre-terminated fiber infrastructure in enterprise and commercial environments.

This patch cable is used in multimode OM4 fiber systems operating at 10 Gigabit, 40 Gigabit, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances. Typical installation scenarios include patch panel to switch connections, SAN and NAS storage interconnects, and horizontal or backbone fiber segments in commercial buildings. The LC duplex format is standard on modern transceivers and fiber switches, making this a direct-fit cable for most current active equipment.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber construction supports 10G, 40G, and 100G applications
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for compatibility with current-generation transceivers and switches
• 3-meter length suited for within-rack and short cross-connect runs
• Pre-terminated factory assembly eliminates field termination and reduces installation time
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cable for OM4 multimode fiber installations using LC duplex port interfaces.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure installers typically handle fiber patch cable installation. Before connecting or disconnecting fiber, power down or disable the associated transceivers where possible to avoid exposure to active laser light. Clean LC ferrules with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating to prevent insertion loss. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local building codes for fiber routing, bend radius, and labeling requirements.
