Patch Cable BlueOptics 470-ADCI MPO-MPO Multimode OM4 7.5m Blue

The BlueOptics 470-ADCI MPO-MPO Multimode OM4 Patch Cable in blue is a 7.5 meter fibre patch lead designed for high-speed multimode optical connections. It uses MPO connectors at both ends and OM4 multimode fibre to support increased bandwidth and improved transmission performance over short to medium distances. The cable is suitable for structured cabling in data centers, server rooms and enterprise network environments where reliable multi-fibre connectivity is required.

Advantages

This OM4 multimode MPO-MPO patch cable provides higher modal bandwidth and lower attenuation compared with lower-grade multimode fibres, helping to maintain signal integrity in dense parallel optical links. Its 7.5 m length gives flexibility for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment runs without excessive slack. The standardized MPO connector interface enables quick mating in high-density installations and supports multi-fibre transceivers and breakout modules. The blue jacket makes visual identification simple within mixed cable bundles.

Suitable for

• Data center trunking and parallel optics links
• High-density network patching between switches and patch panels
• Multimode transceiver connections (MPO-based)
• Short to medium distance intra-building backbone runs

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Multimode OM4
• Connector type: MPO to MPO (multi-fibre MPO connectors at both ends)
• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Jacket colour: Blue
• Application: High-bandwidth multimode optical links and parallel optics

How to use

Route the MPO-MPO patch cable between compatible MPO ports on patch panels, switches or transceiver modules, taking care to align connector keys and pin orientation for correct polarity. Avoid tight bends and maintain the cable’s minimum bend radius to prevent increased loss. For installations in racks and cabinets, secure the cable to cable management elements to prevent strain on the connectors. If connecting into breakout assemblies or harnesses, follow the vendor-specific polarity and pin-out guidelines for the system in use.

Recommendations

Inspect connectors for dust or debris before mating and use appropriate MPO cleaning tools. For best performance in high-density or parallel optics applications, verify link loss and polarity with suitable test equipment after installation. Store unused cables coiled with gentle bends and avoid crushing or kinking the fibre cable.
