OM5 Simplex Round Fiber Optical Cable
- Supports SWDM (850-950nm) for multi-wavelength transmission
- 4700MHz·km @850nm enables 400G Ethernet
- Supports 40/100G up to 150m, 400G up to 100m
- Carries 4× more data than standard OM4 (using SWDM)
- Works with existing OM3/OM4 equipment
- Distinctive Lime Jacket
- Optimized for both 850nm and 950nm operation
Abalone Tech’s Our OM5 simplex round fiber optic cable features wideband multimode fiber (WBMMF) technology with a distinctive lime green jacket for easy identification. The 50/125μm fiber utilizes optimized glass composition to support shortwave wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) from 850-950nm. The tight-buffered construction with aramid yarn reinforcement provides excellent durability while maintaining flexibility for easy installation in high-density environments.
FEATURES:
- 150m for 40/100G, 100m for 400G applications
- Carries 4 wavelengths on single fiber (vs traditional MMF)
- Fully interoperable with OM3/OM4 systems
- 7.5× diameter bend radius for tight installations
- Future-proof migration path to 400G+
