Belden Inc. FD3D024L9 OM3 24-fiber Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FD3D024L9 is a factory-terminated fiber distribution assembly built around an OM3 multimode core with a 24-fiber count configuration. This type of assembly is used to establish high-bandwidth structured cabling links between network equipment, patch panels, and distribution points in data centers, enterprise networks, and commercial communications infrastructure. OM3 laser-optimized 50-micron multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and higher-speed protocols over standard link distances. The FD3D024L9 is typically installed by licensed low-voltage contractors, network infrastructure technicians, and telecommunications specialists.

This 24-fiber distribution-style assembly is suited for indoor backbone and horizontal runs in commercial and enterprise environments. The factory-terminated design eliminates field-termination labor and delivers consistent insertion-loss performance out of the box. Its form factor fits standard telecommunications rooms, main distribution frames, and data center structured cabling systems where OM3 multimode connectivity is specified. Installation typically follows TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local low-voltage codes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or telecommunications contractor familiar with TIA-568 and applicable local cabling codes. De-energize connected active equipment before making or breaking fiber connections, and handle terminations with appropriate fiber-optic cleaning tools to protect end-face quality. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing and cable management. Inspect and clean connector end-faces before mating to ensure rated optical performance.
