Belden Inc. 7B-FI4D12F9 OM4 12-fiber Distribution Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. 7B-FI4D12F9 is a 12-fiber indoor distribution-style fiber optic cable built to OM4 multimode specifications. OM4 glass supports high-bandwidth applications and is rated for longer transmission distances at 10 Gbps and above compared to OM3 glass. This cable is designed for structured cabling installations inside commercial and industrial buildings. Licensed low-voltage contractors and network infrastructure technicians are the typical installers. The distribution-style construction keeps the overall diameter compact, making it well suited for conduit runs and cable tray routing through telecommunications rooms and data centers.

This cable fits indoor horizontal and backbone runs where multimode OM4 performance is required. Typical applications include inter-floor backbone runs, equipment room cross-connects, and patch panel feeds in commercial buildings. The 12-fiber count makes it a practical choice for moderate-density installations where a single cable replaces multiple smaller assemblies. It is sold as an individual unit (each) with a minimum order quantity of one.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports 10 Gbps and higher data rates over standard indoor distances
• 12-fiber count provides moderate density in a single cable run
• Indoor distribution construction with compact profile for conduit and cable tray routing
• Sold by the individual unit (EA) for flexible procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an indoor distribution-style multimode fiber optic cable for use in structured cabling systems that require OM4-rated connectivity. No specific compatible equipment or system families were identified in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage contractor or qualified network cabling technician in accordance with applicable codes including ANSI/TIA-568 and local building codes. Verify that all power to active equipment is removed before terminating or splicing any fiber runs. Use proper fiber handling tools and observe the cable's minimum bend radius throughout the pull to avoid microbend losses. Do not exceed the cable's rated tensile load during installation pulls.
