Add-On ADD-MPOMPO-50M5OM3 MPO/UPC to MPO/UPC Aqua OM3 OFNR Patch Cable

Overview

The Add-On ADD-MPOMPO-50M5OM3 is a 50-meter fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density data center and enterprise network applications. It features MPO/UPC connectors on both ends, terminating in an Aqua OM3 jacket, suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet (40/100GbE) deployments. The OFNR (riser-rated) jacket ensures compliance with building codes for vertical cable runs, making it ideal for backbone connectivity between network closets or server racks.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring MPO/UPC ports, including switches, transceivers (like QSFP+ and QSFP28), and patch panels designed for OM3 fiber. It is suitable for use with 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE standards, providing the necessary bandwidth for demanding data center workloads. Ensure your connected devices utilize MPO/UPC connectors for a secure and optimal connection.

Installation Notes

Handle MPO connectors with care to avoid contamination or damage to the polished end-face. Use appropriate cleaning tools before insertion. The Aqua OM3 jacket is designed for riser (OFNR) applications, meaning it can be run vertically within building shafts but should not be used in plenums without additional fire-rated conduit. Ensure proper strain relief is applied at termination points to prevent damage to the fiber strands.
