Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes OM4 multimode technology, optimized for high-speed data transmission over short to medium distances. The 50/125 µm fiber core is engineered to support applications requiring high bandwidth, such as 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE networks. The MPO female connector provides a single interface for up to 12 fibers, while the four LC male connectors offer standard duplex connections for compatibility with common networking equipment.
The cable's construction includes precision-polished connectors to minimize insertion loss and back reflection, ensuring reliable signal integrity. The crush-resistant design protects the internal fibers from physical damage during installation and maintenance, maintaining performance in demanding environments.
Key Product Advantages
This breakout cable streamlines network infrastructure by consolidating multiple connections into a single cable run. The MPO to LC configuration is ideal for high-density patching applications where space optimization is critical. The crush-resistant jacket provides additional protection against accidental damage during installation or in crowded cable management systems.
High-Density Connectivity
The MPO female connector supports multiple fibers in a compact interface, reducing cable clutter and improving airflow in rack environments.
- Single MPO interface for up to 12 fibers
- Breaks out to four standard LC connections
- Ideal for structured cabling systems
Durable Construction
Engineered with crush-resistant materials to withstand physical stress during installation and maintenance operations.
- Protects internal fiber strands
- Maintains signal integrity under pressure
- Long-lasting performance in demanding environments
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is specifically designed for data center and enterprise network applications where high-density fiber connectivity is required. The MPO to LC breakout configuration is commonly used to connect backbone cabling to distribution switches, servers, or storage area network (SAN) equipment. The 6-meter length provides sufficient reach for typical rack-to-rack or within-rack connections.
Typical deployment scenarios include connecting MPO-based trunk cables to LC-based transceivers in switches and routers, patching between fiber distribution panels, and implementing structured cabling systems in commercial buildings. The green aqua color facilitates easy identification in complex cable management systems, helping technicians quickly distinguish multimode OM4 cables from other fiber types.

FAQ
What is the purpose of an MPO to LC breakout cable?
An MPO to LC breakout cable converts a single high-density MPO connection into multiple standard LC connections. This allows you to connect MPO-based backbone cabling to equipment with LC ports, such as switches, routers, and servers. It simplifies cabling infrastructure by reducing the number of individual patch cords needed for multi-fiber applications in data centers and enterprise networks.
What network applications is this OM4 cable suitable for?
This OM4 multimode fiber optic cable is designed for high-speed network applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE), and 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE). It's ideal for data center interconnects, storage area networks (SAN), and backbone connections within enterprise environments where high bandwidth over short to medium distances is required.
What does the 50/125 µm specification mean?
The 50/125 µm specification refers to the fiber's core and cladding diameters. The 50-micron core is the light-carrying central portion of the fiber, while the 125-micron cladding surrounds and contains the light within the core. This specific dimension is standard for multimode fiber and works with OM4 grading to support high-bandwidth transmission with minimal signal loss over the cable's operational length.
How does the crush-resistant feature benefit installation?
The crush-resistant jacket provides protection against physical compression that can occur during installation, maintenance, or in crowded cable management systems. This protection helps prevent damage to the internal fiber strands that could degrade signal quality or cause complete failure. The feature ensures the cable maintains its structural integrity and performance characteristics even in demanding environments with tight bends or heavy cable loads.
