Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber patch cable supports multi-mode transmission with OM3 category fiber, delivering bandwidth up to 10 Gbps over distances suitable for short to medium-range applications. The 50/125 µm core/cladding specification is optimized for use with 850 nm VCSEL sources, common in modern network equipment.
The MPO female connectors on both ends provide a secure, high-density interface compatible with MPO adapters, cassettes, and transceivers. This straight-through configuration simplifies patching in structured cabling systems, reducing installation time and potential errors.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Fiber Optic Mode, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This cable combines high performance with practical safety and installation features. The OFNR riser-rated jacket allows for use in vertical riser spaces without conduit, while the LSZH material minimizes toxic fumes in case of fire, enhancing workplace safety.
High-Density Connectivity
MPO connectors support up to 12 fibers in a single interface, saving space in crowded network cabinets and simplifying cable management.
- Reduces cable clutter
- Compatible with MPO-based systems
- Ideal for 40G/100G deployments
Reliable Performance
Laser-optimized OM3 fiber ensures low attenuation and high bandwidth for stable data transmission in demanding environments.
- Physical Contact (PC) connectors
- Stranded design for flexibility
- Consistent signal integrity
Deployment / Use Cases
This MPO/MPO patch cable is ideal for connecting network switches, routers, and servers in data centers where high-density fiber links are required. Its 15 m length provides flexibility for inter-rack connections, while the riser-rated jacket suits installations between floors or in vertical riser shafts.
Common applications include linking MPO cassettes to transceivers in 40G/100G Ethernet networks, patching in fiber distribution panels, and extending connections in storage area networks (SAN). The aqua color aids quick identification in complex cabling environments.
Data Center Patching
Use for direct connections between MPO ports on active equipment or structured cabling components, reducing splice points and insertion loss.
Riser Installations
The OFNR rating allows deployment in vertical riser spaces without additional conduit, simplifying compliance with building codes.

FAQ
What is the length of this fiber patch cable?
This cable measures 49.2 feet, which is equivalent to 15 meters. This length is suitable for inter-rack connections, patching between equipment in data centers, or vertical riser runs without requiring intermediate splices or extenders.
What type of connectors are on each end?
Both ends feature MPO female connectors. Each connector terminates 12 fibers in a single high-density interface, providing a straight-through configuration that simplifies connections between MPO ports on switches, transceivers, or distribution panels.
Is this cable riser-rated?
Yes, it has an OFNR riser-rated jacket. This rating means the cable meets flammability standards for use in vertical riser spaces, such as between floors, without the need for conduit. The jacket is also made from low smoke zero halogen material for enhanced safety.
What fiber category and specifications does it use?
It uses OM3 category multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding specification. OM3 fiber is laser-optimized to support data rates up to 10 Gbps over short to medium distances, commonly used in high-speed network backbones and data center interconnects.
How many fiber strands does this cable have?
This cable contains 12 individual fiber strands within a single jacket. The MPO connectors terminate all 12 strands, enabling high-density connectivity for applications like 40G/100G Ethernet, where multiple fibers are used in parallel to achieve higher bandwidth.
What is the warranty for this product?
AddOn provides a 3 Year Lifetime limited warranty for this fiber patch cable. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, ensuring reliable performance over its operational life in network installations.
