BlueOptics Compatible HPE P45731-B21 Fibre Optic Trunk Cable, MPO/APC to MPO/APC, Single-Mode OS2, 3 Metres, 12 Fibres, LSZH, Yellow

The BlueOptics Compatible HPE P45731-B21 fibre optic trunk cable is a high-performance, pre-terminated MPO/APC to MPO/APC single-mode OS2 cable designed for demanding data centre, SAN, LAN, and telecommunications applications. Engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, this 3-metre trunk cable provides reliable, low-loss connectivity for high-speed networks.

Advantages

This trunk cable offers exceptional insertion loss (≤0.35 dB) and return loss (≥60 dB), ensuring minimal signal degradation and optimal network performance. The LSZH jacket provides enhanced safety in enclosed spaces, while the yellow colouring allows for easy identification of single-mode cabling. With 12 fibres and Type B polarity, it is ideal for parallel optics and high-density environments.

Suitable for

• Data centre backbone and horizontal cabling
• Storage Area Networks (SAN)
• Local Area Networks (LAN)
• Telecommunications infrastructure
• High-speed fibre optic links (40G, 100G, and beyond)
