Belden Inc. FI4D012P9 12-fiber OM4 Indoor Plenum Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FI4D012P9 is a 12-fiber multimode OM4 indoor plenum-rated fiber optic cable with a violet jacket. Designed for high-bandwidth backbone and horizontal runs inside commercial and institutional buildings, it meets plenum (CMP) fire rating requirements for installation in air-handling spaces without conduit. OM4 multimode glass supports high-speed data transmission and is suited for 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet applications over standard multimode distances. Licensed electricians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the typical installers for this type of structured cabling product.

This cable is intended for indoor plenum environments such as dropped ceilings and raised-floor air-return spaces in commercial office buildings, data centers, healthcare facilities, and educational campuses. The 12-fiber count makes it a practical choice for moderate-density backbone runs between telecom rooms or from a main distribution area to an intermediate distribution frame. The violet outer jacket follows TIA-598 color coding for OM4 multimode fiber identification on the job site.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet over standard OM4 distances
• Plenum (CMP) fire rating allows installation in air-handling spaces without conduit
• 12-fiber count suits moderate-density backbone and horizontal distribution runs
• Violet jacket follows TIA-598 OM4 multimode color identification standard
• Indoor-rated construction for commercial and institutional structured cabling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style indoor plenum multimode fiber optic cable for use in OM4 multimode structured cabling systems terminated with standard LC, SC, or MPO connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling contractor or electrician in accordance with NEC Article 770 requirements for optical fiber cables. De-energize any active equipment in the pathway before pulling cable, and observe the manufacturer minimum bend radius to avoid fiber damage. Plenum-rated cable must be installed only in spaces specifically designated as environmental air-handling areas per NEC and local AHJ requirements. Do not exceed the cable pulling tension rating during installation.
