Malaysian upgrade projects can use this configuration where its interface and fiber map align with both the installed cabling and the new hardware. This OM4 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM4 glass and optically tested as a whole assembly. The duplex zipcord construction keeps the transmit and receive strands paired in one assembly for fast, error-free patching.

OM4 raises the effective modal bandwidth to 4700 MHz·km at 850nm, and that headroom translates directly into reach for the higher-speed interfaces. The price difference against OM3 has largely disappeared, meaning that new cabling plants standardize on OM4 and keep OM3 only for matching current installations.
A duplex jumper is two fibers with a defined A-to-B crossover. Getting polarity right at the cord level keeps the channel consistent end to end, which is why these assemblies are built and tested as a pair rather than as two distinct strands.
Normal length options cover the common patching routes: 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), with project-specific length available beyond the list. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the relevant connectors.
Each finished assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The completed cable ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result available on request.
Refer to this configuration by connector pair, fiber mode and length when seeking a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labelling or project packing, send the need with the inquiry and the factory will determine the build before the product is built. For Malaysian upgrades, our team can compare the requested build with the existing environment before production begins.
