Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes multi-mode technology optimized for short to medium-distance applications, typically up to 300 meters with OM3-grade performance. The 50/125 µm fiber geometry balances bandwidth and cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, or other high-speed protocols.
The MPO connectors are industry-standard interfaces that support high-density patching, commonly used in parallel optics for 40G or 100G networks. The flame-retardant jacket meets safety standards for installation in plenum or riser spaces, reducing fire hazards in commercial settings.
Key Product Advantages
This cable delivers robust connectivity with features that enhance network reliability and ease of use. The locking latch mechanism provides a positive click when engaged, maintaining signal integrity by preventing vibration or movement from loosening connections.
Secure Connections
The MPO locking latch ensures stable mating, critical for high-vibration environments or mission-critical links where downtime must be avoided.
- Prevents accidental disconnects
- Reduces signal loss from movement
- Supports high-density patching
Environmentally Conscious
Constructed with flame-retardant materials and designed for longevity, this cable supports sustainable IT practices with a lifetime warranty.
- Low smoke emission
- Durable jacket resists wear
- Lifetime warranty coverage
Deployment / Use Cases
Ideal for structured cabling in data centers, this cable connects MPO-based transceivers, patch panels, or active equipment like switches and routers. Its multimode OM3 rating suits backbone links, storage area networks (SAN), or high-speed interconnects within a building or campus.
Common applications include linking 40G QSFP+ modules, supporting parallel optics in spine-leaf architectures, or extending connections in telecom cabinets. The 29.5-foot length accommodates typical rack distances while minimizing slack, and the green aqua color aids in cable management and troubleshooting.
Data Center Patching
Use for trunk connections between MPO patch panels and active gear, enabling scalable fiber infrastructure with high port density.
Network Upgrades
Deploy when migrating to higher-speed networks like 40G or 100G Ethernet, where MPO interfaces are standard for aggregation links.

FAQ
What is the difference between MPO female and MPO male connectors?
MPO female connectors have alignment pins, while MPO male connectors have alignment holes. This cable uses one female and one male end, allowing it to connect directly between two male-female interfaces, such as linking a patch panel to a transceiver. The configuration ensures proper polarity and alignment for reliable optical signal transmission.
What does OM3 multimode fiber mean for this cable?
OM3 denotes a laser-optimized 50/125 µm multimode fiber grade that supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and is commonly used for 40G/100G applications with parallel optics. It provides higher bandwidth than OM1 or OM2 fibers, making this cable suitable for high-speed data center or enterprise backbone connections where short to medium distances are required.
Can this cable be used for outdoor installations?
This cable is designed for indoor use with a flame-retardant jacket suitable for plenum or riser spaces. It is not rated for direct burial or prolonged outdoor exposure. For outdoor applications, consider cables with additional weatherproofing and UV-resistant jackets to prevent degradation from environmental elements.
How does the locking latch feature improve network reliability?
The locking latch physically secures the MPO connector into the port, preventing it from loosening due to vibration, cable tension, or accidental bumps. This maintains optimal optical alignment, reduces insertion loss, and minimizes downtime from intermittent connections, which is critical in high-availability environments like data centers or server rooms.
