Optical Cable Corp. DX024TALT9QP 24-fiber OM3 Plenum Cable

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. DX024TALT9QP is a 24-fiber multimode plenum-rated fiber optic cable designed for indoor and outdoor installations where air-handling space compliance is required. Built to OM3 multimode specifications, this cable supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling backbone runs. The aqua jacket color follows standard OM3 identification conventions, making polarity and fiber-type identification straightforward during installation and maintenance. Sold as a single unit, this cable is suited for network infrastructure work performed by licensed low-voltage contractors and communications technicians.

This cable is suited for plenum-rated runs through air-handling spaces, raised floors, and open ceilings in commercial and institutional buildings. Its indoor and outdoor rating makes it appropriate for campus backbone applications where cable transitions between building interiors and protected exterior pathways. The OM3 designation supports laser-optimized 50/125 micron multimode fiber transmission, commonly used with 850 nm VCSEL-based transceivers in data center and enterprise LAN environments.

Key Features

• 24-fiber multimode OM3 construction for high-bandwidth backbone and riser runs
• Plenum-rated jacket meets air-handling space requirements per applicable fire codes
• Indoor and outdoor dual rating supports campus and inter-building routing
• Aqua jacket color follows TIA-568 OM3 identification standards
• Laser-optimized 50/125 micron multimode fiber compatible with 850 nm VCSEL transceivers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum multimode fiber cable for use in structured cabling systems requiring OM3-rated 24-fiber indoor and outdoor plenum runs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or communications contractor familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local fire code requirements for plenum-rated pathways. De-energize and verify all connected network equipment is offline before terminating or splicing fiber runs. Follow minimum bend radius guidelines specified by the manufacturer to avoid signal degradation. Plenum pathway compliance should be verified against the applicable edition of NFPA 90A before pulling cable through air-handling spaces.
