OPTICOM CASS OM5 1 MPO/6 DUP LC ULTREA

general information

QuickNet™ OM4 and OM5 Signature Core™ MTP Fiber Optic Cassettes comply with IEEE 802.3ae 10 GbE and ANSI T11.2 Fibre Channel requirements. QuickNet™ Signature Core™ MTP Fiber Optic Cassettes employ high performance 12-fiber MTP connectivity on the rear of the units routed to discrete SC or LC connectivity on the front. Colors for OM4 and OM5 shall follow respectively TIA/ EIA-568-C.3 and TIA 568.3 -D suggested color identification scheme. They interconnect with high-density SFF MTP ribbon interconnect cable assemblies. High-density cassette patch panels shall hold up to 8 cassettes, allowing up to 96 fiber connections to be deployed in one rack unit (1 RU).

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 transceiver.

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

Allows system designers to tailor configuration, reach and breakout construction to application requirements; to minimize waste, optimize cable management, speed deployment, and improve flexibility and manageability for lower installation costs.
