Belden Inc. FD4D024P9 OM4 Plenum Fiber Cable 24F

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FD4D024P9 is a 24-fiber multimode OM4 indoor/outdoor plenum-rated fiber optic distribution cable designed for high-bandwidth backbone and horizontal runs in commercial and enterprise environments. Rated for plenum air-handling spaces, this cable meets stringent smoke and flame requirements without the need for conduit in many installations. The OM4 multimode designation supports high-speed data transmission at 10 Gb/s, 40 Gb/s, and 100 Gb/s applications over appropriate distances. Licensed low-voltage and datacom contractors are the primary installers of this cable type.

The FD4D024P9 is suited for in-building backbone runs, inter-floor distribution, and campus-style indoor-to-outdoor transitions where a single cable must pass through plenum-rated air spaces. Its black jacket makes it well suited for above-ceiling and open-plenum pathways. Typical applications include data centers, structured cabling systems, telecom rooms, and large commercial facilities requiring high-fiber-count multimode infrastructure.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode glass supports 10 Gb/s, 40 Gb/s, and 100 Gb/s transmission
• Plenum-rated jacket meets smoke and flame requirements for air-handling space installations
• Indoor/outdoor dual-rated construction simplifies routing through mixed environments
• Black jacket finish appropriate for above-ceiling and open-plenum pathways
• Sold individually (each) with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum multimode fiber distribution cable compatible with standard OM4 LC, SC, and MPO/MTP fiber termination systems used in structured cabling and data center backbone installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or datacom contractor familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local fire and building codes governing plenum-rated pathways. De-energize all active equipment in the fiber pathway before pulling cable, and observe manufacturer minimum bend radius requirements to avoid microbending losses. Do not exceed rated pulling tension during installation. Fiber terminations require proper cleaving, polishing, or pre-terminated connector methods appropriate to the connector type used.
