MPO-4xLC Multimode OM4 Patch Cable 10 Meter BlueOptics FG-TRAN-QSFP-4SFP-10

The BlueOptics MPO-4xLC Multimode OM4 Patch Cable 10 Meter (FG-TRAN-QSFP-4SFP-10) is a structured fiber optic assembly designed for high-density, high-speed networking environments. This 10 m multimode OM4 trunk converts a single MPO connector to four LC duplex terminations, providing a compact solution for interconnecting equipment in data centers, aggregation switches and patch panels. The cable is engineered for low insertion loss and high bandwidth to support 40G and 100G optics and short-reach parallel transmission distances typical in modern enterprise infrastructures.

Advantages

The OM4 multimode fiber offers increased modal bandwidth and low attenuation, enabling reliable transmission of high-speed signals over 10 meters with minimal signal degradation. The MPO to 4xLC breakout design reduces cable clutter and simplifies cross-connects between QSFP and SFP modules. Durable connector housings and consistent polishing ensure stable optical performance and repeatable mating cycles. The BlueOptics construction focuses on predictable loss budgets and compatibility with common multimode transceivers.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the MPO end into the MPO port on a QSFP breakout cassette or patch panel, and connect the four LC duplex ends to the corresponding SFP ports on target devices. Observe proper fiber handling: avoid tight bends, secure the cable with appropriate strain relief, and ensure connector endfaces are clean before mating. Verify link status and optical power levels after installation to confirm correct alignment and performance.

Recommendations

Use appropriate MPO-to-LC adapter panels or cassettes when integrating into patching frames to maintain manageability. Clean connectors with recommended fiber cleaning tools before each connection and route the cable to avoid bend radii smaller than manufacturer guidelines. For environments requiring extended reach or single-mode links, select an appropriate fiber type and transceiver combination.
