OM3 multimode fibre.

Also written OM3 fibre, aqua fibre, 10 gigabit multimode.

Is OM3 still worth installing?

Only to match what a building already has. OM3 and OM4 are both laser-optimised 50 micron fibre in the same aqua jacket; OM4 simply carries more bandwidth, 550 metres of 10 gigabit against OM3's 300. New backbones go in as OM4 or single mode; OM3 patch cords and panels stay in the catalogue to extend and repair the plant that was laid a decade ago.

Defined by ISO/IEC 11801, which defines the OM3 cabled category, published by ISO/IEC.
