ACT 2 meter Multimode 50/125 OM4 fanout patchcable 1 X MTP female - 4 X LC duplex 8 fibers

The ACT 2 meter Multimode 50/125 OM4 fanout patch cable features a single MTP female connector and four LC duplex connectors with eight fibers in total. The cable uses a compact 3 mm jacket and OM4 multimode fiber designed for high-speed data transmission with a 50 µm core diameter, providing low insertion loss and reliable performance for data center and network installations.

Advantages

The cable is ultra-compact by combining eight fibers into a 3 mm cable and terminating in an MTP connector at each end, making it space-efficient for dense cabling environments. ACT MTP/MPO cables use MTP® US Conec connectors which contribute to very low loss and consistent optical performance. The fanout design with one MTP female to four LC duplex connectors supports easy connection to QSFP+ 40G and QSFP28 100G transceivers and other multimode equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center backbone and patching
• High-density fiber panels and racks
• Connections to QSFP+ 40G and QSFP28 100G transceivers
• Short-range multimode links (OM4)

How to use

Route the fanout cable between the MTP-compatible patch panel or transceiver and the destination rack or equipment. Insert the MTP female connector into the MTP adapter or transceiver module ensuring correct alignment and secure the connector in place. At the other end, plug the LC duplex connectors into the corresponding LC ports on patch panels or devices. Verify polarity and continuity with appropriate test equipment before placing the link into production.

Recommendations

For best performance, handle the OM4 multimode fibers carefully to avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling tension. Use proper cleaning procedures for MTP and LC connector endfaces and ensure compatibility with QSFP+ 40G and QSFP28 100G transceivers. Keep cable runs as short as practical within the data center to maintain low insertion loss.
