Belden Inc. TF3D9024RI5N OM3 24-fiber Trunk Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. TF3D9024RI5N is a 24-fiber multimode OM3 indoor trunk cable with a PVC jacket, designed for high-density fiber distribution in structured cabling installations. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-bandwidth applications by providing low-loss, bend-tolerant multimode fiber runs between patch panels, switches, and distribution points. The PVC outer jacket suits indoor plenum-alternative or riser-rated pathway installations. Licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and data center infrastructure teams are the primary installers of this cable.

This trunk cable is suited for use in enterprise data centers, telecommunications rooms, and large commercial buildings where high-density fiber backbone runs are required. It is typically deployed as a pre-terminated or field-terminated trunk between main distribution areas and horizontal distribution areas. The 24-fiber count makes it appropriate for consolidation-point configurations and multi-port cassette systems in structured cabling architectures following ANSI/TIA-568 standards.

Key Features

• 24-fiber count supports high-density backbone and trunk cabling runs
• OM3 multimode fiber rated for 10GbE and compatible with laser-optimized transceivers
• PVC jacket suitable for indoor installation in conduit or cable tray
• Sold individually as a single cable assembly unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style trunk cable for use in indoor structured fiber cabling systems requiring OM3 multimode 24-fiber backbone connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling technician familiar with ANSI/TIA-568 fiber cabling standards. Before routing, verify that conduit, cable tray, or innerduct pathways are clear and sized appropriately for the cable diameter. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during pulls to prevent fiber damage. PVC-jacketed cable should not be installed in air-handling plenum spaces where a plenum-rated jacket is required by local fire code.
