Network Cable BlueOptics FG-TRAN-QSFP-4SFP-1 MPO-4xLC Multimode OM4 1 Meter

The BlueOptics FG-TRAN-QSFP-4SFP-1 MPO-4xLC Multimode OM4 1 Meter patch cable is designed for short-distance, high-bandwidth optical connections in data centers and enterprise network environments. This multimode OM4 cable terminates with an MPO connector on one end and four LC connectors on the other, enabling a QSFP-to-4xSFP style breakout for transceivers and switch ports. At 1 meter length it supports dense rack and cabinet deployments where controlled routing and minimal patching distance are required.

Advantages

This multimode OM4 cable offers low insertion loss and low attenuation characteristics optimized for medium-reach, high-speed multimode links. The MPO to 4xLC breakout design reduces the number of intermediate adaptors and simplifies fiber management when connecting QSFP modules to multiple SFP ports. The 1 meter length helps maintain signal integrity by minimizing excess fiber slack in confined rack spaces, and the cable is compatible with standard multimode transceivers and patch panels that accept MPO and LC connectors.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the MPO end into the MPO-capable transceiver or patch panel port, ensuring correct keying and polarity. Route the breakout to the target device or panel and connect each LC connector to the corresponding SFP port or LC receptacle. Avoid sharp bends and secure the cable with appropriate management clips to prevent strain on connectors. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, perform optical power or insertion loss tests to confirm signal integrity.

Recommendations

Use in controlled indoor environments such as data centers or server rooms. Keep MPO end caps on until ready to plug in and avoid exposing fiber endfaces to dust. For best performance, pair with compatible OM4 multimode transceivers and follow manufacturer guidelines for connector cleaning and handling.
