Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. BE004ZWST5KE is a 4-fiber breakout-style fiber optic patch cable constructed with 62.5/125 multimode fiber, classified as OM1. Breakout cables feature individually jacketed subunits for each fiber strand, making them well suited for direct termination without the need for a breakout kit or fan-out assembly. This cable is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for structured cabling installations, equipment rooms, and data distribution in commercial or light industrial environments. Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or network cabling professionals.

This breakout cable is designed for multimode fiber optic runs commonly found in horizontal and backbone cabling applications. The 62.5/125 OM1 fiber supports legacy and current multimode transmission standards over short to medium distances. It is commonly deployed in building infrastructure, telecommunications rooms, and data centers where existing OM1 infrastructure is in place. Each of the four fibers is independently protected, simplifying patching and field termination at patch panels, switches, and active equipment.

Key Features

4-fiber breakout construction with individually jacketed subunits for direct termination
62.5/125 multimode OM1 fiber for compatibility with legacy and current multimode networks
Breakout design eliminates the need for a separate fan-out kit at termination points
Single-unit packaging for per-cable procurement and inventory control
Suitable for structured cabling in commercial and light industrial environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit breakout patch cable for multimode OM1 fiber optic systems using 62.5/125 fiber infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network cabling technician familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. De-energize or power down all active equipment connected to the fiber path before making or breaking connections. Follow TIA-568 standards for fiber bend radius and cable management to avoid signal degradation. Avoid over-tensioning or kinking the cable during routing and termination.
