Fibre optic cable BlueOptics MTP12-FF-M10M-BO MPO/UPC OM3 1 m Black

The BlueOptics MTP12-FF-M10M-BO MPO/UPC OM3 1 m Black is a 1‑meter multimode fibre optic patch cable designed for high-density trunking and parallel optical links. It features MPO/UPC to MPO/UPC MTP12 connectors and OM3 laser-optimized multimode fibre with a 125 µm core diameter. The cable uses an LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) outer sheath for reduced smoke and no halogen release in the event of fire. It is suitable for connecting patch panels, MPO trunks and compatible optical transceivers in data centre and enterprise networks where low attenuation and reliable multi‑fibre connections are required.

Advantages

This MPO/UPC OM3 cable provides low input loss and high return loss values thanks to high‑quality multimode fibre and precision connectors. The MTP12 connector configuration supports parallel multi‑fibre transmission and dense installations, enabling compact cable management. Production testing with interferometer and OTDR ensures traceable input loss and return loss measurements. The LSZH sheathing improves fire safety compared with PVC‑jacketed cables.

How to use

Inspect connectors and port alignment before insertion to avoid contamination. Plug the MPO/UPC connector ends into corresponding MPO ports on patch panels or transceivers, ensuring correct orientation of the keying on the MTP12 connector. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends and strain; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Handle connectors by the housing and keep protective caps on unused ends until installation is complete.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM3 MPO/UPC cable in multimode systems up to the supported short‑reach distances of OM3. Keep connector endfaces clean and use appropriate cleaning tools before mating. When deploying in critical links, verify end‑to‑end loss with an OTDR or insertion loss meter and retain the supplied measurement protocol with installation records.
