StarTech.com MPO8LCPL5M 5M OM3 MTP to 4x LC Duplex Breakout Fiber Optic Cable for 40Gbps High-Density Networks

StarTech.com 5m (16.4ft) MTP(F)/PC to 4x LC/PC Duplex Breakout OM3 Multimode Fiber Optic Cable, 40G, Low Insertion Loss, Fiber Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com MPO8LCPL5M fiber optic breakout cable provides a reliable solution for distributing high-speed 40Gbps connections from a single MPO/MTP port to four LC duplex connectors, ideal for data centers, SANs, and high-density network environments. Crafted with an aqua-colored OM3 multimode fiber, this cable supports high bandwidth applications with ease. Its plenum-rated OFNP jacket ensures safety and compliance for in-wall and in-ceiling installations, emitting low smoke and fumes in case of fire. Each cable undergoes rigorous testing for insertion loss and return loss, with detailed test reports included to verify signal integrity and performance.

Designed with user convenience in mind, the MPO8LCPL5M features push-and-pull tabs with flexible extensions, allowing for quick and tool-free installation or removal even in tight spaces. The slim uniboot design of the LC connectors enhances cable management and reduces space requirements, making it suitable for dense rack setups. The cable's core and cladding are 50/125 micrometers, providing immunity to electromagnetic interference, which is crucial in electrically noisy environments. Supporting modal bandwidth of 2000MHz/km at 850nm, this cable ensures high-fidelity signal transmission over longer distances, making it a versatile choice for modern fiber optic networks.

This 16.4-foot (5-meter) cable is compatible with 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ transceivers and supports applications requiring high-speed multimode fiber connections. Its low insertion loss, rated at 0.5dB for MPO and 0.2dB for LC connectors, maintains optimal signal quality. The cable is manufactured in China by StarTech.com, a trusted brand known for quality and reliability, and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Whether deploying new infrastructure or upgrading existing systems, this breakout cable offers an efficient, durable, and high-performance solution for demanding network environments.
