Belden Inc. FP4LULU14M5 OM4 Lc Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FP4LULU14M5 is a multimode OM4 fiber optic patch cable with LC duplex connectors on both ends. It is designed for high-bandwidth structured cabling installations that require low insertion loss and reliable signal transmission across short to medium distances. With a 14-fiber count and a 5-meter length, this cable suits data center interconnects, equipment rooms, and backbone segments where density and performance are critical. Licensed low-smoke zero-halogen jacket materials are typical in this product family, making the cable appropriate for plenum or riser pathways depending on the specific jacket rating. Network installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trade professionals who specify and terminate this cable.

This patch cable is built for multimode OM4 fiber infrastructure operating at 10 Gigabit, 40 Gigabit, or 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications over short distances. It fits structured cabling environments including data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise network closets. The LC duplex interface on both ends allows direct connection to SFP+ and QSFP+ transceivers, patch panels, and active equipment that accept LC-style connectors. The 14-fiber count supports high-density routing in a single cable run.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE transmission
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for compatibility with high-density patch panels and transceivers
• 14-fiber count enables multiple channel routing in a single assembly
• 5-meter length suits intra-rack and inter-rack connections in equipment rooms
• Factory-terminated and tested assembly for consistent insertion loss performance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fiber optic patch cable assembly for use in OM4 multimode structured cabling systems with LC duplex interface equipment.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians typically install fiber optic patch cables following ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Always inspect connector end-faces with a fiber inspection scope before mating to avoid contamination-related signal loss. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and avoid cinching tie wraps too tightly around fiber assemblies. Power down or place active ports in a safe state before disconnecting live fiber links in sensitive network environments.
