Belden Inc. TU3D9012RI2N OM3 12-fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. TU3D9012RI2N is a multimode OM3 12-fiber duplex patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise environments. This fiber patch cable provides reliable optical connectivity between network equipment, patch panels, and active devices. OM3 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit and 40 Gigabit Ethernet over typical data center and backbone runs. The cable ships as a single unit and is installed by licensed low-voltage technicians, network cabling professionals, and experienced data center crews.

This patch cable is suited for indoor horizontal and backbone runs in commercial buildings, data centers, server rooms, and telecommunications closets. The duplex configuration supports bidirectional fiber links commonly found in structured cabling systems. With 12 fibers, this assembly supports multi-channel or parallel optical connections in high-density installations. It is appropriate for use wherever OM3-rated multimode fiber connectivity is specified per TIA-568 cabling standards.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports 10GbE and 40GbE applications
• 12-fiber count suits high-density or multi-channel structured cabling
• Duplex construction enables bidirectional optical transmission
• Indoor-rated design appropriate for data center and commercial building installations
• Single unit per package for precise quantity ordering on installation projects

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit patch cable for OM3 multimode fiber optic systems requiring 12-fiber duplex connectivity in structured cabling environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified low-voltage or fiber optic cabling technicians following TIA-568 standards and applicable local codes. Power down or disable active optical transceivers before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cables to prevent eye hazard and equipment damage. Inspect and clean connector end-faces prior to mating using approved fiber cleaning tools. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing or storage.
