ACT 1 meter multimode 50/125 OM4 polariteit B glasvezel-patchkabel met MTP-bussen

The ACT 1 meter Multimode 50/125 OM4 polarity B fiber patch cable with MTP female connectors is a short-reach optical patch cord designed for high-density installations. With a 50 µm core and OM4 graded-index multimode fiber, the cable supports enhanced bandwidth for modern data center links and enterprise network interconnects. The 1 meter length balances manageability and minimal excess fiber for clean connections in patch panels, cassette adapters, or between transceivers and distribution frames.

Advantages

The OM4 multimode specification provides higher modal bandwidth compared to older multimode types, improving performance for 40G and 100G multimode applications. Polarity B wiring ensures compatibility with systems that require reversed fiber pairs for structured cabling. MTP female connectors offer a compact footprint and reliable alignment for multi-fiber terminations, while the short length reduces latency and clutter in dense racks.

Suitable for

• Data center spine-to-leaf and switch-to-transceiver connections
• High-density patch panels and cassette-to-cassette links
• 40 Gigabit and 100 Gigabit multimode network links
• Short-reach links within server rooms and telecommunications closets

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4 (50/125 µm)
• Length: 1 meter
• Connector type: MTP female
• Polarity: Type B (flipped fiber pairs)
• Application: Short-reach high-bandwidth multimode links

How to use

Route the fiber patch cable between the two intended connection points, avoiding sharp bends and contact with abrasive surfaces. Insert the MTP female connectors into compatible MTP ports on patch panels, cassettes, or transceivers until they fully seat and any latching mechanism engages. Verify correct polarity and fiber mapping before powering network equipment. Use appropriate cable management to secure the cable and maintain the recommended minimum bend radius throughout the installation.

Recommendations

Inspect connector endfaces with a microscope and clean with approved fiber cleaning tools before connection. Maintain bend radius greater than manufacturer recommendations, store excess length in a loop with a diameter that prevents stress, and avoid repeated flexing near connector ends to prolong service life.
