Glasvezel-MTP-kabel EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM5-15 — OM5, 15 m, MTP–MTP, 50 µm

EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM5-15 is a 15 m fiber optic cable with OM5 multimode fibers and MTP connectors on both ends. The cable uses 50 µm core multimode construction optimized for short- to medium-reach high-density links. It is intended for equipment interconnects in data centers, high-speed computing clusters and InfiniBand environments where reliable multimode transmission and easy plug-and-play connectivity are required.

Advantages

The cable provides a standardized multimode OM5 fiber medium with a 50 µm core that supports high data rates and simplified cabling in dense installations. Factory-polished MTP connectors at both ends ensure consistent insertion loss and repeatable mating performance, reducing installation time. The 15 m length balances reach and manageability for common inter-rack and intra-row connections while maintaining multimode link characteristics suitable for short to medium distances.

Suitable for

• Data centre interconnects and patching between switches and distribution panels
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand links
• Short- to medium-distance multimode backbone runs within racks and between adjacent racks
• Installations requiring high-density connector arrays and rapid deployment

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM5 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: MTP on both ends (multifiber MPO-style high-density connector)
• Cable length: 15 m
• Application: short- to medium-reach multimode links for data centre and HPC environments

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and inserting the MTP connectors into compatible MTP/MPO ports on transceivers, patch panels or breakout modules. Ensure connector keys and polarity match the mating equipment to maintain correct channel mapping. Handle connectors by the housing to avoid touching ferrules, and route the cable to maintain recommended bend radius and avoid tight loops. For best performance, keep connectors clean and inspect or clean endfaces before final connection.

Recommendations

Store and route the fiber cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; observe the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and tensile limits. Use appropriate cleaning tools for MTP/MPO ferrules and verify polarity and insertion loss when integrating into existing multimode links. For environments requiring single-mode reach or very long spans, select an appropriate fiber type and transceiver combination.
