BlueOptics X66205-15-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 15 m MPO 4x LC

The BlueOptics X66205-15-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 15 m MPO to 4x LC multi-mode OM4 patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and enterprise networks. It features an MPO/UPC connector on one end and four LC duplex/UPC connectors on the other, a 125 µm core diameter OM4 fibre and full-duplex communication capability. The cable is intended for connecting MPO-capable devices or patch panels to multiple LC transceivers or ports and is supplied with a flame-retardant LSZH outer jacket.

Advantages

The cable uses laser-optimized OM4 multi-mode fibre for low attenuation and improved modal bandwidth, providing reliable signal quality across typical data centre distances. High-quality branded fibre and connector components, zirconia ceramic ferrules and manufacturing processes ensure low insertion loss and high return loss. Each cable is factory-tested with interferometer and OTDR and supplied with measured input-loss and return-loss values. The LSZH sheathing reduces halogen emissions and smoke in case of fire and the construction meets common telecom and safety standards.

How to use

Route the cable in accordance with site cable management practices, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tensile stress. Plug the MPO connector into the MPO-capable port or cassette on the patch panel, ensuring correct orientation and alignment, then connect each LC duplex connector to the corresponding LC ports on transceivers or equipment. Verify connections using test equipment or device link indicators and refer to the supplied measurement protocol for insertion loss and return loss values.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector boots and avoid touching the fibre endfaces. Use dust caps when connectors are not mated, and perform endface inspection and cleaning before insertion. For best optical performance, adhere to recommended minimum bend radii, avoid tight coils, and follow equipment vendor guidance for MPO pinning and polarity to ensure correct duplex signal routing.
