ACT 3 meter Multimode 50/125 OM4 polarity B fiber patch cable with MTP female connectors

The ACT 3m Multimode 50/125 OM4 Polarity B fiber patch cable with MTP female connectors is designed for high-density network environments that require reliable multi‑gigabit optical links. With a 3 meter length and multimode 50/125 µm OM4 fiber, the cable supports high bandwidth transmission and is suited for 10GbE and 40GbE applications in data centers and enterprise networks. Polarity B wiring ensures correct signal pairing in parallel optics installations where polarity mapping between transceivers and patching infrastructure is required.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable provides low insertion loss and consistent optical performance across multimode links thanks to OM4-grade fiber. The MTP female connectors offer high-density connectivity and secure mating in cassette or trunking systems. A 3 m length balances reach and cable management within racks and between adjacent rows, and the multimode 50/125 core diameter maintains compatibility with common multimode transceivers and equipment.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode 50/125 µm
• OM grade: OM4
• Cable length: 3 meters
• Connector type: MTP female
• Polarity: Type B
• Supported applications: 10GbE, 40GbE (parallel optics)

How to use

Install the cable by aligning the MTP female connector with the corresponding male or cassette adapter, ensuring correct orientation for Polarity B. Route the cable through cable management trays or within racks to avoid sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. Verify connectivity and optical power levels after installation using appropriate test equipment or transceiver diagnostics to confirm low insertion loss and correct channel mapping.

Recommendations

When deploying OM4 multimode links, keep cable runs as short as practical for the application, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress, and use dust caps on connectors when not in use. For parallel optics systems, ensure polarity B mapping matches the patching scheme of transceivers and patch panels to prevent channel misalignment.
