EFB Elektronik MPO-PLUS/APC(M)-LC Fanout Cable OS2 12 Fibers Type B LSZH Yellow 1m MPOM12LCOS2-1

In high-density data center environments, network engineers rely on the EFB Elektronik MPO-PLUS/APC(M)-LC Fanout Cable to connect 40G/100G backbone switches to individual LC-based ports. This 1-meter OS2 singlemode fanout cable features a 12-fiber MPO-PLUS/APC male connector on one end, fanning out to 12 LC/UPC connectors, with Type B polarity for straightforward deployment in parallel optics systems.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OS2 singlemode
• Fiber count: 12
• Connector A: MPO-PLUS/APC male
• Connector B: 12x LC/UPC
• Polarity: Type B
• Length: 1 m
• Jacket: LSZH, yellow
• Insertion loss (MPO): ≤ 0.35 dB
• Insertion loss (LC): ≤ 0.25 dB
• Return loss (MPO/APC): ≥ 60 dB
• Return loss (LC/UPC): ≥ 50 dB
• Operating temperature: -20°C to +70°C

Why choose it

The MPO-PLUS connector ensures low insertion loss and high return loss, critical for high-speed data transmission. The LSZH jacket meets strict fire safety requirements in data centers, while the yellow color provides quick identification of singlemode fiber.

Ideal use cases

• High-density data center cabling
• 40G and 100G Ethernet connections
• Storage area networks (SAN)
• Telecom central offices

Good to know

Type B polarity means the fiber positions are reversed between the MPO and LC ends, simplifying connection to standard transceivers. The cable is compliant with IEC 61754-7 and IEC 61754-20 connector standards.
