Glasvezelkabel BlueOptics 106283-5403-BO MTP 4xLC OM4 3 m beige

The BlueOptics 106283-5403-BO MTP 4xLC OM4 3 m Beige is a 3-metre multimode fibre optic patch cable engineered for InfiniBand and high-speed network interconnects. One end terminates in an MTP/MPO connector and the other end splits to four LC duplex connectors, enabling compact multi-fibre connections. The cable uses OM4 laser-optimized multimode fibre with a 50 µm core diameter, full-duplex transmission and an LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) outer sheath for reduced smoke and no halogen release in case of fire. The assembly is factory-tested for insertion loss and return loss and is compatible with common MTP/UPC to LC/UPC connectivity requirements.

Advantages

This fibre cable provides high bandwidth and low attenuation typical of OM4 multimode fibre, supporting demanding data center and rack-to-rack links. The MTP to 4x LC configuration simplifies consolidation of parallel optical links while keeping individual LC connections accessible. Built with branded fibres and quality ceramic ferrules, the cable is designed for consistent optical performance and up to typical industrial mating cycles. The LSZH jacket improves safety in confined spaces and the product is tested with interferometry and OTDR to document input loss and return loss values.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand interconnects and high-speed switch-to-switch links
• Data center patch panels and fibre distribution frames
• Connecting multi-fibre transceivers (MTP/MPO) to LC-based equipment
• Short- to medium-reach multimode optical links requiring OM4 performance

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode, laser-optimized, 50 µm core
• Connector A: MTP/MPO (multi-fibre)
• Connector B: 4 × LC duplex (UPC)
• Transmission: full duplex multi-fibre to 4 LC channels
• Sheath: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Testing: factory-tested for insertion loss and return loss, OTDR and interferometer verification
• Compliance: manufactured to common industrial optical cable standards and RoHS

How to use

Install the MTP end into the MTP/MPO port of the switch, patch panel or transceiver designed for multi-fibre connectors, ensuring correct keying and orientation. Route the cable avoiding tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain the minimum bend radius specified for multimode OM4 fibre. Plug the four LC duplex connectors into the corresponding LC ports on the destination equipment, observing correct polarity for full-duplex operation. Verify connectivity and optical link quality using appropriate test equipment and consult the supplied measurement protocol for insertion loss and return loss values.

Recommendations

Handle connector endfaces with care: keep dust caps on until final installation, clean endfaces with approved fibre-cleaning tools before mating, and avoid repeated mating without inspection. For best performance, observe bend radius limits, avoid tight cable bundles near heat sources, and perform optical verification after installation to confirm loss budgets and alignment with system requirements.
