Belden Inc. FS4C012N0 OM4 12-fiber Osp Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FS4C012N0 is an OM4 multimode 12-fiber outside plant fiber optic cable designed for high-bandwidth data and communications infrastructure. This cable is built for outdoor deployment, providing a ruggedized pathway for optical signal transmission between buildings, campus nodes, or distribution points. Featuring 12 fiber strands in an OM4 configuration, it supports 40 Gigabit and 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications at extended distances. Network technicians and low-voltage contractors install this cable in conduit, direct-buried, or aerial runs depending on the specific outside plant infrastructure requirements.

This cable is suited for outside plant (OSP) installations in commercial, enterprise, and campus environments where high-fiber-count multimode runs are required between facilities or equipment rooms. OSP-rated construction means the cable is designed to withstand exposure to moisture, temperature variation, and UV conditions typical of outdoor routing. It is commonly used in structured cabling projects, data center interconnects, and campus backbone installations where OM4 multimode performance is specified.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber classification supports 40GbE and 100GbE transmission
• 12-fiber strand count suitable for medium-density backbone runs
• Outside plant rated construction for outdoor and harsh-environment deployment
• Sold as individual unit (EA) for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OSP-rated OM4 multimode fiber optic cable suitable for use with standard LC, SC, or MPO terminations and compatible with OM4 patch panels, enclosures, and transceivers in outside plant backbone installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage contractor or qualified fiber optic technician familiar with OSP cabling practices and applicable local codes. Avoid exceeding the cable's minimum bend radius during routing through conduit or cable trays. Proper weatherproof sealing and grounding of any metallic elements should be completed at all entry points per applicable NEC and local building codes. Terminate and test with calibrated optical test equipment to verify insertion loss before commissioning.
