Glasvezel-MTP-kabel EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM3-10-A — OM3, 10 m, 50 µm, aqua

EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM3-10-A is a 10 m fibre optic MTP–MTP cable in aqua colour designed for high-speed multimode links. The cable uses OM3 multimode fibre with a 50 µm core diameter and MTP connectors on both ends, providing a compact, high-density connection for data centres, server racks and switch-to-switch links. Its construction targets low insertion loss and reliable signal transmission in short- to medium-range optical networks while maintaining standardized connector compatibility.

Advantages

The cable delivers consistent multimode performance with OM3-rated fibre optimized for 850 nm applications and shortwave multiplexing. MTP end connectors support high-density panel layouts and easy mating with MTP-compatible modules, offering reduced patching complexity in structured cabling. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment runs, and the aqua jacket colour provides clear visual identification for OM3 links in mixed-fibre environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Short- to medium-range high-speed links between switches, patch panels and servers
• High-density data centre trunks and parallel optics systems (InfiniBand, 40/100 Gigabit setups)
• Structured cabling in server racks and equipment rooms requiring multimode OM3 performance
• Connections where MTP/MPO high-fibre-count interfaces are used for aggregated links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: MTP to MTP (multifibre connector)
• Length: 10 m
• Jacket colour: Aqua (OM3 identification)
• Application wavelength: optimized for 850 nm
• Design: high-density, low insertion loss for parallel optics

How to use

Inspect both MTP connectors and free ends before installation to ensure cleanliness and absence of debris. Route the 10 m cable following rack cable management practices to avoid tight bends; observe the manufacturer-specified minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Insert MTP connectors firmly into compatible MTP adapters or ports until the connector latches engage. When connecting to transceivers or breakout modules, verify correct polarity and fibre mapping according to the system design. After installation, perform optical loss and continuity tests to confirm link performance.

Recommendations

Use a fibre-specific cleaner for connector endfaces and protect unused connector ends with dust caps. Avoid excessive pulling force and maintain appropriate bend radius to prevent increased attenuation. For parallel optics or breakout assemblies, ensure correct pinning and polarity alignment to match the target transceivers or modules.
