Product Features
Technical Overview
This patch cable utilizes OM3 multi-mode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter, optimized for 10 GbE applications over distances up to 300 meters. The MPO connectors provide physical contact (PC) polishing for low insertion loss and high return loss, while the stranded construction enhances flexibility during installation.
The cable jacket is rated for OFNP, Plenum, and OFNR riser environments, constructed from low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) and PVC materials for reduced toxicity in case of fire. No electromagnetic shielding is present, as fiber optics are inherently immune to EMI/RFI interference.
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 simplifies network deployments by providing a pre-terminated MPO-to-MPO solution that eliminates field termination time and reduces installation errors. The riser-rated jacket allows safe use in vertical shafts and air-handling spaces without conduit.
High-Density Connectivity
MPO connectors support 12 fibers in a single interface, maximizing port density in data centers and telecom rooms.
- Reduces cable clutter
- Supports parallel optics
Installation Flexibility
The 50-meter length and flexible stranded design accommodate various rack-to-rack or floor-to-ceiling runs.
- Easier routing around corners
- Less strain on connectors
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is ideal for connecting MPO-based transceivers in 40G and 100G Ethernet switches, SAN switches, and fiber distribution panels. Its OM3 rating makes it suitable for backbone links within data centers, enterprise networks, and campus environments.
Common applications include patching between MPO cassettes and breakout modules, extending trunk cables in structured cabling systems, and interconnecting high-speed networking equipment in server rooms. The riser rating ensures compliance for installations between floors in commercial buildings.

FAQ
What is the length of this fiber patch cable?
This cable measures 50 meters (164 feet), providing ample reach for connections between network equipment in data centers, server rooms, or across building floors. The length supports typical rack-to-rack or floor-to-ceiling runs without requiring intermediate splicing.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
Both ends feature MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) female connectors, each supporting 12 fibers in a single interface. These connectors are commonly used for high-density applications like 40G/100G Ethernet and provide secure latching for reliable connections.
Is this cable OM3 or OM4 rated?
This cable is OM3 rated, which supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters with laser-optimized 50/125 µm multi-mode fiber. OM3 is widely deployed in enterprise networks and data centers for cost-effective high-speed connectivity.
Can this cable be used in plenum spaces?
Yes, the jacket is rated for OFNP (plenum), OFNR (riser), and riser environments, making it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces, vertical shafts, and between floors without additional conduit. The LSZH/PVC materials reduce smoke and toxicity in case of fire.
Does this cable support single-mode or multi-mode fiber?
This cable uses multi-mode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding specification. Multi-mode fiber is ideal for shorter distances within buildings and campuses, offering a balance of performance and cost for most enterprise applications.
What is the warranty for this fiber patch cable?
AddOn provides a 3-year lifetime warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty reflects the cable's durable construction and reliability for continuous use in network environments.
