MPO Patch Cable BlueOptics MPO12-4DLC-SM-2 2 Meter Singlemode

The BlueOptics MPO12-4DLC-SM-2 2 Meter Singlemode patch cable connects an MPO12 connector to four LC connectors over singlemode fiber. Designed for high-density environments, it supports high-speed data transmission with low insertion loss and high return loss to maintain signal integrity across links. With a 2 meter length, this cable is suited for short interconnections inside racks or between adjacent equipment bays where MPO trunk to LC breakout is required.

Advantages

This singlemode patch cable offers low insertion loss and high return loss to reduce signal degradation and support reliable optical performance. The MPO to 4xLC breakout design provides a compact solution for converting multi-fiber MPO trunks into standard LC interfaces without additional adapters. Its standardized connectors and fiber type enable compatibility with equipment in data centers and telecom racks, while the 2 m length balances flexibility and neat cable management.

How to use

Inspect connectors and fiber ends for damage or contamination before installation. Align and insert the MPO12 connector into the MPO port on the trunk or cassette, ensuring proper keying and orientation. Route the 4 LC connectors to the target devices and insert each LC into the corresponding LC receptacle, taking care to avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress on the cable. Secure cable routing within the rack or cabinet to maintain bend radius and prevent strain on connections.

Recommendations

For optimal long-term performance, clean connector end faces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools prior to mating and use protective dust caps when connectors are not in use. Maintain bend radii according to singlemode fiber specifications and avoid tight loops; store excess cable length neatly in cable management trays.
