Microconnect FIB4420015 OM3 LC 1.5m Blue Fibre Optic Cable
The Microconnect FIB4420015 is a high‑performance, multi‑mode fibre optic cable designed for demanding networking environments. With its compact 1.5 meter length and dual LC connectors, it delivers reliable data transmission while maintaining ease of installation.
Key Technical Specifications
- Bending Radius: Minimum 6 cm – ensures the cable can be routed through tight spaces without compromising signal integrity.
- Colour: Distinctive blue jacket for easy identification in complex cabling systems.
- Connectors: Dual LC connectors (LC on both ends) provide a secure, high‑density connection suitable for modern data centers and enterprise networks.
- Fiber Mode Structure: Multi‑mode – ideal for short‑range applications such as LANs, server rooms, and storage area networks.
- Fibre Type: OM3 – offers higher bandwidth (up to 200 Gbps over 300 m) compared to standard OM2, making it future‑proof for expanding network demands.
- Halogen‑Free: Yes – the cable is constructed with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, enhancing safety in case of fire by reducing toxic smoke and halogen gases.
- Operating Temperature: -40 °C to 85 °C – suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations where temperature extremes may occur.
- Storage Temperature: -40 °C to 85 °C – ensures the cable remains stable during storage before deployment.
Design Features That Enhance Performance
The OM3 core diameter of 50 µm with a cladding of 125 µm provides excellent mode coupling and low attenuation. The cable’s LSZH jacket not only meets stringent fire safety regulations but also reduces the risk of chemical exposure in hazardous environments.
The dual LC connectors are engineered for high‑density, low‑profile installation. Their ferrule design minimizes insertion loss and back reflection, ensuring that data signals travel with minimal distortion. The connectors’ robust construction allows for repeated mating cycles without compromising performance.
Applications Across Industries
- Data Centers: Ideal for high‑speed interconnects between servers, switches, and storage arrays where bandwidth demands are escalating.
- Enterprise LANs: Provides reliable connectivity across office floors, supporting VoIP, video conferencing, and cloud services.
- Industrial Automation: The cable’s wide temperature range and halogen‑free jacket make it suitable for factory floor networks that require stringent safety standards.
- Telecommunications: Supports backhaul links in small to medium‑scale telecom infrastructures where multi‑mode fibre is preferred for cost efficiency.
Installation Guidelines
To preserve the cable’s performance, adhere to the following best practices during installation:
- Maintain Minimum Bending Radius: Never bend the cable tighter than 6 cm. Use cable management systems that respect this constraint.
- Secure Connectors Properly: Ensure LC connectors are fully seated and locked to prevent micro‑gaps that could increase loss.
- Avoid Physical Damage: Handle with care during splicing or termination; avoid crushing the jacket which can lead to fiber breakage.
- Temperature Considerations: While the cable tolerates a wide temperature range, avoid prolonged exposure to extremes beyond the specified limits during installation.
Maintenance and Longevity
The LSZH jacket offers superior resistance to chemical degradation, extending the cable’s service life even in harsh environments. Regular visual inspections for cuts or abrasions will help maintain optimal performance over time.
Why Choose Microconnect FIB4420015?
The combination of high bandwidth OM3 fibre, dual LC connectors, and a halogen‑free LSZH jacket makes this cable an excellent choice for professionals seeking reliability, safety, and future‑proofing in one package. Its compact 1.5 meter length is perfect for short‑haul connections where space and flexibility are at a premium.
Whether you’re upgrading a legacy network or building a new infrastructure from scratch, the Microconnect FIB4420015 OM3 LC 1.5m Blue Fibre Optic Cable delivers the performance and safety features required for modern digital communication systems.

Cable colour The visual hue or combination of hues that a cable exhibits, expressed as common colour names such as "Black", "White" or comma‑separated lists like "Black, White". It indicates the appearance of the cable for identification and aesthetic purposes.
|
Blue |
|
Connector 1 The physical interface or port located at the first end of a cable or device, such as USB‑A, HDMI, RJ‑45, DisplayPort, Lightning, or other standard connectors. It identifies the shape, pin count and electrical characteristics that determine compatibility with cables, adapters or other components.
|
LC |
|
Fiber mode structure The optical fibre configuration that determines how light propagates through the core, typically "Single‑mode" for narrow cores and single wavelength transmission or "Multi‑mode" for wider cores supporting multiple propagation paths. This attribute indicates whether a cable is designed for single‑mode or multi‑mode operation, which affects compatibility with transceivers, distance limits and bandwidth.
|
Multi-mode |
|
Fibre optic type The designation of the optical fibre used in a cable or connector, such as OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, OS2, etc. It indicates the mode (single‑mode or multimode) and core diameter characteristics that determine bandwidth, reach, and compatibility with equipment.
|
OM3 |
|
Halogen-free Indicates whether the product contains any halogen compounds. A value of "Yes" means the item is free of halogens, making it safer for indoor use and more environmentally friendly.
|
Yes |
|
Jacket material The outer jacket material is the substance that forms the protective sheath or covering of a product, such as cables, hoses, or enclosures. It determines durability, fire‑resistance, and suitability for specific environments. Common materials include PVC, LSZH, TPE, nylon, ABS, and their combinations.
|
Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) |
|
Operating temperature The range of temperatures in which a product can safely operate without risk of damage or performance degradation. Values are expressed in degrees Celsius (°C) and may represent a single temperature, a minimum–maximum interval, or an average operating point.
