Belden Inc. TF3LG012RN5N OM3 12-fiber Pvc Ofnr Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. TF3LG012RN5N is a multimode OM3 12-fiber optical patch cable with a PVC jacket rated OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser). It is designed for high-bandwidth data transmission in structured cabling installations where riser-rated fiber runs are required. OM3 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed protocols over typical intrabuilding distances. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cable in commercial and enterprise environments where building and fire codes require riser-rated materials.

This patch cable suits riser pathway installations between floors in commercial buildings, data centers, and enterprise network environments. It is appropriate for use in telecommunications rooms, equipment rooms, and vertical backbone runs where a 12-fiber count is needed for density and scalability. The OFNR rating makes it compliant for riser installations without the need for conduit in many jurisdictions, simplifying cable management in multi-floor structured cabling projects.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed optical protocols
• 12-fiber count provides high density for backbone and riser runs
• OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rating meets riser fire code requirements
• PVC outer jacket for durability in indoor structured cabling environments
• Sold individually as a single cable unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style riser-rated multimode patch cable suitable for OM3-compatible fiber optic systems and equipment with standard multimode fiber interfaces in commercial structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed data communications contractor familiar with TIA-568 and NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 770 requirements for optical fiber riser cables. De-energize and power down connected active equipment before terminating or patching fiber connections. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable minimum bend radius to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. Verify that the OFNR rating satisfies the applicable local code requirements for the intended riser pathway before installation.
