FiberHome® OM4 Multimode Fiber

A1a.3 (50/125μm)

FiberHome® OM4 MMF fiber is designed specifically for high speed local area network (LAN) , such as Gigabit or higher speeds Ethernet. With the extremely refined refractive index profile owing to the optimized PCVD process, FiberHome® OM4 MMF fiber eliminates the differential mode delay (DMD) phenomenon observed on the conventional fibers in Gigabit applications. Thus, there is no need for expensive CMC compensation. FiberHome® Next Generation MMF fibers satisfy the use at 850nm and 1300nm. The maximum link distances (up to 2000 meter) for Gigabit Ethernet system are the longest distances available in the world.
