InfiniBand/fibre optic cable EFB Elektronik MTPF36MTPFOM4-15-A — 15 m, OM4, MTP–MTP, 50 µm, violet

Multimode fibre optic InfiniBand cable EFB Elektronik MTPF36MTPFOM4-15-A is a 15 m OM4 link with MTP connectors on both ends. It uses 50 µm core multimode fibre designed for high-density installations and high-speed data transmission. The violet jacket and industry-standard MTP–MTP connection make this cable suitable for organized patching in data centres, server racks and advanced network interconnects where reduced insertion loss and consistent performance are required.

Advantages

This OM4 multimode cable provides increased bandwidth compared with lower‑grade multimode fibres, enabling reliable short‑reach high‑speed links. The factory‑terminated MTP connectors ensure correct alignment of multiple fibres in a single connector, lowering installation time and minimizing variability. The 50 µm core supports modern transceivers commonly used in InfiniBand and high‑speed Ethernet environments. Colour coding and robust outer sheathing simplify identification and routing in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Data centre backbone and inter‑rack connections
• Server farm and high‑performance computing (HPC) clusters
• InfiniBand and multimode optical transceiver links
• High‑density patch panels and MPO/MTP trunks

Key specifications

• Cable length: 15 m
• Fibre type: OM4 multimode
• Core diameter: 50 µm
• Connector type: MTP–MTP (multi‑fibre push‑on)
• Jacket colour: violet

How to use

Route the cable between the two intended connection points, avoiding tight bends and mechanical stress. Plug the MTP connector ends into matching MTP adapters or transceiver modules, ensuring proper key orientation and connector alignment. Use cable management and strain relief where appropriate to prevent pull force on the connector ends. Test the link with suitable fibre test equipment or transceiver diagnostics to verify insertion loss and channel performance after installation.

Recommendations

Handle the MTP connectors with care and keep protective caps on unused ends to prevent contamination. Maintain minimum bend radius as specified by fibre standards, avoid excessive twisting, and follow facility grounding and routing practices for optical infrastructure. For optimal performance in InfiniBand or 40/100G multimode applications, verify connector polarity and fibre mapping before final commissioning.
