International Connectors and Cable ICFC12ML50 MPO to LC Duplex Cassette

Overview

The International Connectors and Cable ICFC12ML50 is a 12-fiber MPO to LC Duplex cassette designed for efficient fiber optic network management. It simplifies the transition from high-density MPO trunk cables to standard LC connectors, commonly found in data centers, enterprise networks, and surveillance infrastructure. This unit allows for clean termination and easy patching, reducing installation complexity and potential points of failure in fiber optic deployments.

Compatibility

This MPO cassette is designed to interface with standard MPO trunk cables and LC patch cords. It is compatible with any network switch, server, or fiber optic equipment that utilizes LC Duplex connectors for multimode fiber connections. Its 50µm core diameter is specified for multimode applications, typically OM3 or OM4 fiber, supporting high-bandwidth data transmission over shorter distances.

Installation Notes

Installation involves securely mounting the cassette within a compatible fiber optic enclosure or patch panel. Ensure the MPO connector is fully seated and the LC Duplex connectors are properly aligned before connecting patch cords. The 50µm multimode fiber specification dictates its use in applications where distances are limited, typically up to 300 meters for OM3 or 550 meters for OM4 at 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds. Verify your existing fiber infrastructure matches the OM3/OM4 specification for optimal performance.
