Features

Indoor optical cables are specifically designed for building interiors. Their core characteristics include lightweight flexibility, lower tensile strength, and a focus on flame retardancy and environmental friendliness. They are primarily used for network equipment connections and structured cabling within buildings.

Key features can be summarized as follows: Lightweight and Flexible: The cable structure is simple, lightweight, and has a small bending radius, making it ideal for navigating and cabling in confined and complex indoor environments such as corners and conduits.

High Safety and Environmental Friendliness: Indoor environments have extremely high fire resistance requirements, therefore, low-smoke halogen-free (LSZH) flame-retardant sheaths are typically used.

During combustion, they produce less smoke and do not release toxic or corrosive gases, ensuring safe evacuation. Weaker Physical Protection: Due to the relatively stable indoor environment, indoor optical cables do not contain heavy protective layers such as steel wire armor or waterproof sealant, therefore their tensile and lateral pressure resistance is lower than that of outdoor optical cables.

Easy Termination: They typically employ a tight-buffered fiber design, with the fiber tightly bonded to the outer sheath, allowing installers to easily strip and splice the fiber or install connectors (such as SC and LC connectors).

Applications

1. Data Centers
Indoor 10 Gigabit OM4 multimode optical cables are used in data centers to interconnect servers, connect storage area networks (SANs), and connect core and access switches. They meet the high bandwidth and low latency requirements of data centers and support fast data reading, writing, and transmission.

2. Enterprise Campus Networks
Indoor 10 Gigabit OM4 multimode optical cables can serve as backbone connections between buildings within an enterprise campus or as vertical backbone cabling between floors within large office buildings, providing businesses with stable, high-speed network connections and supporting various business applications such as video conferencing, file sharing, and ERP systems.

3. Cloud Computing and Hosting Services
In cloud computing data centers and hosting provider facilities, indoor 10 Gigabit OM4 multimode optical cables are used to connect different server clusters, storage devices, and network equipment, ensuring the operation of cloud computing services and rapid data transmission.
