QuickNet OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Interconnect Cable Assemblies SPECIFICATION SHEET general information QuickNet OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Interconnect Cable Assemblies allow for rapid deployment of high-density permanent links in a single assembly for data center applications requiring quick infrastructure deployment, such as main, horizontal, and zone distribution areas. These interconnect cable assemblies optimize cable routing requirements to ensure efficient use of pathway space and significantly reduce installation time and cost. They are built with modular MPO connectivity and provide compatibility, flexibility, and system performance in all permanent link applications. technical information OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Fibers are modal and chromatic dispersion compensating multi-mode fibers designed for optimum performance with high-speed Vertical Cavity Surfacing Emitting Lasers (VCSEL) transceivers. The refractive index profile is engineered to correct for the interaction between modal and chromatic dispersion increasing the total channel bandwidth. Like OM3 and OM4 fiber types, the actual supported reach for Signature Core Fiber family depends on the electrical and optical characteristics of the VCSEL transceiver1. OM4 Signature Core provides you on average 20% longer reach than OM4 defined standard for all applications using Ethernet, Fibre Channel and Cisco BiDi technologies. For example, the OM4 Signature Core Fiber will support a 600m reach with 10GBASE-SR transceivers compared to a 400m maximum reach over OM4 as specified in IEEE 802.32. OM5 Signature Core provides you on average 15% longer reach than OM5 defined standard for all applications that use Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing (SWDM). SWDM is a technology that boosts transmission capacity by sending multiple signals in four wavelengths across the 850nm to 940nm on a single fiber. OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Fibers are 100% standards compliant meeting all OM3 and OM4 specifications, with an additional requirement for Differential Mode Delay (DMD) that compensates for modal and chromatic dispersion effects4. OM5 Signature Core includes additional bandwidth characterization at 953 nm to support extended distances when using SWDM. application Data centers requiring quick infrastructure deployment with extended reach that want to maintain bandwidth throughout the infrastructure. construction physical properties Cable type: 3.0mm round indoor Cable outside 3.0mm diameter (OD): Cable Optical Fiber Non-Conductive jacket ratings: Plenum (OFNP) Minimum bend radius Under load: 20 x cable OD Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) Static: 10 x cable OD Fiber types: Signature Core OM4+ and OM5+ Cable tensile strength 22N (installation): Connector end A: Type: MPO female Color: Black and Aqua Cable compressive load: 35N/cm short term Polarity: Method A and Method B 110N/cm long term Fiber count: 12-fiber Cable flex: 25 cycles Jacket color: Aqua for OM4 Signature Core Cable twist: 10 cycles Lime green for OM5 Signature Core Connector end B: Type: MPO female environmental properties Color: Black and Aqua Polarity: Method A and Method B Storage and -40C to +70C shipping temperature: Installation temperatures: 0C to +40C optical properties Operating temperature: 0C to +70C Cable attenuation: 2.3dB/km 850nm 0.6dB/km 1300nm Maximum connector 0.25dB standards insertion loss: Meets or exceeds ISO/IEC 11801, TIA/EIA-568-C.3, TIA-604-5 Minimum connector 30dB (FOCIS-5), TIA/EIA-568-C.1, RoHS compliant for OM4 return loss: ANSI/TIA-492AAAE, IEC 60793-2-10 Ed 6, TIA 568.3-D, ISO 11801 Ed 3, RoHS compliant for OM5 1 The actual channel reach of a laser optimized, multimode fiber (OM3, OM4, or Signature Core ) depends on the optical and electrical parameters of the VCSEL transceiver. For worst-case optical and electrical parameters, Signature Core Fiber will provide at least 20% greater reach over standards un-compensated OM4 fiber. 2 OM4 fiber was ratified in the IEEE802.3/D3.0 proceedings from 15-Dec-2011, Table 52-6 with an Operating Range of 2 to 400 meters. 3 Reach values are a minimum. 4 Differential Mode Delay (DMD) is a metric defined in telecommunications industry association standard EIA/TIA 455-220-A, January 2003, which describes a method for measuring the modal dispersion of laser optimized multimode mode fiber. 5 OM5 fiber has been approved as the new wideband multimode standard on June 2016, by ANSI/TIA-492AAAE. www.panduit.com QuickNet OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Interconnect Cable Assemblies Part Number Example: FWTRP7N7NKNF001 = Fiber OM5+ Signature Core , 12-fiber, 3.0mm round indoor, Plenum rate, PanMPO Female with no breakout to PanMPO with no breakout, polarity Method A, no pulling eye, 1 foot Character 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Example F W T R P 7 N 7 N K N F 0 0 1 6 Connector Type End A 10 Performance/Polarity 1 Type F = Fiber product 7 = PanMPO Female K = Polarity A, Ultra IL 2 Fiber Type 8 = PanMPO Male L = Polarity B, Ultra IL 7 Connector Variant 11 Pulling Eye S = OM4+ Signature Core Fiber W = OM5+ Signature Core Fiber N = No variant N = No pulling eye 3 Fiber Count 8 Connector Type End B 12 Unit of Measure 7 = PanMPO Female F = feet T = 12-fiber 4 Cable Type 8 = PanMPO Male M = meters 9 Connector Variant 13, 14, and 15 Length R = 3.0mm round indoor 5 Flame Rating N = No variant 001 030 meters L = Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) 001 - 100 feet P = Optical Fiber Non-conductive Plenum (OFNP) QuickNet OM4 and OM5 Signature Core Interconnect Cable Assembly Detail Length Notes: 1.
