BlueOptics MC6709309-001-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 1 m MPO 4x LC

The BlueOptics MC6709309-001-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1 m MPO 4x LC is a 1-metre multimode OM3 patch cable designed for high-speed, duplex optical connections in data centre and networking environments. It features an MPO connector on one end and four LC duplex connectors on the other, enabling a compact, multi-channel link between MPO ports and equipment with LC ports. The cable uses laser-optimized OM3 fibre for short-range, high-bandwidth transmission and is suitable for InfiniBand and other optical interconnects that require multi-fibre MPO-to-LC breakout configurations.

Advantages

This cable provides a space-efficient MPO to 4x LC breakout in a single 1 m assembly, simplifying connections between MPO-enabled patch panels or transceivers and devices with LC duplex ports. OM3 multimode fibre supports high data rates over short distances, and the MPO/4x LC combination enables parallel or aggregated channel use. The cable is constructed for reliable optical performance and is fitted with a flame-retardant LSZH outer sheath for reduced smoke and halogen emissions in confined installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting MPO-enabled switch or patch panel ports to equipment with LC duplex ports
• InfiniBand short-reach links and multi-channel high-speed connections
• Data centre fibre backbone and rack-to-rack interconnects
• Optical transceiver to patch panel breakout connections

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 m
• Fibre type: OM3 multimode (laser-optimized)
• Connector A: MPO (multi-fibre connector)
• Connector B: 4× LC duplex connectors
• Transmission: full duplex multi-channel optical links
• Sheath material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen), flame retardant

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for cleanliness before insertion. Align the MPO connector with the MPO port and insert until seated; secure MPO latches if present. Route the breakout end to the destination device and plug each LC duplex connector into the corresponding LC ports, ensuring correct polarity for duplex links. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling on the cable; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius for OM3 multimode fibre. Perform link validation with appropriate test equipment or transceiver LEDs to confirm signal presence and correct channel mapping.

Recommendations

Use in short-range, high-bandwidth environments typical of data centres and rack interconnects. Keep connector endfaces clean and protect unused connectors with dust caps. Follow standard fibre handling precautions, and choose appropriate fibre transceivers and port configurations to match OM3 multimode performance.
