OM3 Multi-Core Ribbon Fiber Optic Cable
- OM3 (50/125μm) laser-optimized multimode fiber
- Multi-core (e.g., 8,12 fibers) in a ribbonized format
- Supports up to 2000 MHz·km at 850nm
- Distance Support:
- 10Gbps up to 300m
- 40G/100G up to 100m (with MPO/MTP connectors)
- OFNR, LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) or OFNP jacket for durability and fire safety
- Backward compatible with OM1/OM2 equipment
OM3 multi-core ribbon fiber optic cable is a high-performance multimode optical fiber cable designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunications applications. It consists of multiple optical fibers (typically 8,12 or more) arranged in a flat ribbon structure, allowing for high-density installations. OM3 fiber is optimized for 850nm VCSEL sources and supports 10Gbps, 40Gbps, and 100Gbps Ethernet over short to medium distances.
FEATURES:
- Supports 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet for data centers and high-speed networks
- Ribbon structure allows for high fiber counts in a compact form, optimizing cable management
- Mass fusion splicing reduces deployment time compared to individual fiber splicing
- OM3 provides a balance between performance and cost for short-reach applications
- Compatible with OM4 and OM5 for upgrade flexibility
- Low attenuation and high bandwidth ensure stable data transmission
