OM5 Fiber Optic Cables - Enhanced Multimode for High-Capacity Data Centers

OM5 fiber optic cables are designed to meet the demands of next-generation, high-speed networking. As an evolution of OM4, OM5 supports shortwave wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM), allowing multiple wavelengths to travel over a single fiber. This significantly increases data capacity without adding more fiber strands-either delivering up to 100Gbps transmission or reducing the number of fibers needed for a given data rate.


OM5 is ideal for large-scale data center environments and applications where space, speed, and scalability are critical. Signals travel over four separate wavelength windows within one multimode fiber, multiplying bandwidth potential while maintaining compatibility with existing OM4 systems.

Key Benefits of OM5 Cables:

  • Supports 100Gbps data rates and beyond
  • SWDM technology enables four times the data capacity per fiber
  • Reduces fiber count in high-speed links
  • Backward compatible with OM4 and earlier multimode systems
  • Engineered for next-gen data center infrastructure and backbone networks

Use Cases:

  • 40G/100G/400G interconnects
  • High-density switch uplinks
  • Data center backbone or aggregation layers
  • Environments requiring maximum bandwidth per fiber strand

OM5 cables offer a scalable upgrade path for facilities preparing for increased network demands without a complete overhaul of existing infrastructure.

If you require a custom configuration or specific length, our team can assist. Most OM5 cables are available for quick shipment to support project timelines.
