For Nigerian deployments, this product should be evaluated as part of the complete network path, including its connectors, mapping and acceptance values. This OM4 fiber patch cable carries a LC UPC interface on one end and a LC UPC interface on the other, factory terminated on OM4 glass and optically tested as a whole assembly. The uniboot construction places the two fibers of the duplex link inside a single round 2.0mm cord with one combined connector housing, halving the cable assembly count in high-port-density panels and simplifying polarity management.

Polarity and pairing in duplex links
A duplex jumper is two fibers with a defined A-to-B crossover. Getting polarity right at the cord level keeps the channel consistent end to end, which is why these assemblies are built and tested as a pair rather than as two standalone strands.
Multimode reach for the data hall
This OM4 assembly serves the short-reach fabric of the data center: 10G and 25G server uplinks, 40G and 100G SR4 spine links and the inter-row runs between them. On OM4 glass, 10G Ethernet holds to 400 meters and 100G SR4 to 100 meters, which covers the overwhelming majority of in-hall routes with margin to spare. For Nigerian deployments, retaining this detail with the acceptance records supports consistent maintenance.
One cord, two fibers
The uniboot design merges the duplex pair into a single round cord and a single connector housing. In a 400G row where each QSFP-DD port consumes a duplex link, halving the cord count visibly changes the airflow and the manageability of the patching field.
Length Options
Stock length choices cover the common patching routes: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 8m (26ft), 10m (33ft), with made-to-order length available beyond the list. Specifying the measured route length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the connector interfaces.
Quality Control and Testing
Every cable assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on every cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The cable assembly ships with dust caps on the two connectors and the test result available on request.
Ordering and Factory Support
Refer to this configuration by connector pair, fiber mode and length at the request stage a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, labelling or project packing, send the requirement with the enquiry and the factory will establish the build before the build starts. For Nigerian orders, our team can check the requirement before coordinating manufacture and international delivery.
