Breakout cable for 40GBase-SR4 links
This MPO-to-LC fan-out cable converts one 40 Gbps MPO connection into four 10 Gbps LC links for 40GBase-SR4 networking hardware. The aqua OM3 multimode fibre uses a 50/125 core/cladding ratio and terminates in a single MPO/MTP female connector on one end and eight LC duplex male connectors on the other. A CMP plenum-rated jacket makes it suitable for air-handling spaces where fire code requires that rating.
One-hand push-pull tabs
Push-and-pull tabs on the MPO connector allow single-handed insertion and removal without tools, which helps in dense patch panels where adjacent cables limit finger access. The slim uniboot LC design reduces the overall diameter of the breakout legs, easing cable management in high-density racks. Each assembly ships with an individual insertion-loss and return-loss test report confirming performance before deployment.
OM3 multimode distance limit
OM3 multimode fibre supports 40 Gbps transmission only up to the distance defined by the 40GBase-SR4 standard, so links that exceed that reach will need single-mode cable instead. The cable is not intended for applications requiring longer backbones or outdoor plant runs. Buyers who need extended-reach 40 Gbps links should select a single-mode alternative.

Frågor om den här produkten
Does the MPO8LCPL2M cable generate noticeable heat or draw significant power during continuous 40Gbps operation?
As a passive fibre-optic assembly, it produces no heat and consumes no power; the 40Gbps signal is carried entirely by light through the OM3 multimode cores.
What transceivers must I already have to use this MPO-to-8x-LC breakout cable?
You need a 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ transceiver on the MPO side and four 10Gbps SFP+ transceivers with LC duplex ports on the fan-out side.
Can I connect this OM3 plenum cable to legacy 50/125 µm multimode patch panels without performance loss?
Yes — the 50/125 µm OM3 fibres match standard legacy multimode infrastructure, so insertion-loss and bandwidth remain within OM3 specifications.
