Add-On ADD-MPO-4LC5M5OM4-3MBO MPO/UPC to 4xLC Duplex OM4 Fiber Cable

Overview

The Add-On ADD-MPO-4LC5M5OM4-3MBO is a 5-meter, 8-strand, OM4 multimode fiber optic cable designed to bridge high-density MPO/UPC connections to standard LC duplex interfaces. This cable is essential for connecting high-speed network equipment, such as switches and servers, in data centers or enterprise environments where fiber density and performance are critical. Its Aqua OM4 rating supports 40GbE and 100GbE applications, while the OFNR (riser-rated) jacket ensures compliance for in-building vertical runs.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with network devices featuring MPO/UPC connectors on one end and LC duplex connectors on the other. It is compatible with any switch, server, or network interface card (NIC) that utilizes these specific connector types and requires OM4 performance, including but not limited to equipment supporting 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) and 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) standards.

Installation Notes

Ensure clean MPO/UPC and LC connectors before mating to prevent signal degradation or damage. The OFNR (riser-rated) jacket is suitable for vertical pathways within a building but should not be used in plenums without additional fire-rated conduit. Handle fiber optic cables with care to avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive tension, which can impact performance and durability.
