MPO/APC-4xLC Singlemode patch kábel BlueOptics MPO12-4DLC-SM-5 5 metrov

The BlueOptics MPO12-4xLC-SM-5 is a 5-meter singlemode patch cable with an MPO/APC to 4×LC termination, intended for high-density fiber networks and data center interconnects. It provides singlemode transmission over a 5 m span with APC polish on the MPO end to reduce back reflection, and LC terminations for connection to transceivers or patch panels. The cable is designed to deliver low insertion loss and consistent performance in structured cabling installations.

Advantages

This MPO/APC-4xLC singlemode patch cable offers compact high-density connectivity by converting a 12-fiber MPO trunk to four LC duplex ports, enabling efficient port utilization in racks and patch panels. The APC polish minimizes return loss, making it suitable for sensitive singlemode links. The cable’s construction supports consistent insertion loss and mechanical reliability for repeated mating and standard data center handling.

How to use

Route the cable through the rack or cable management system to avoid sharp bends and secure it using cable ties or organizers as required. Connect the MPO/APC end to the matching MPO trunk or cassette with correct orientation to ensure APC contact alignment, and plug the LC connectors into the target transceivers or patch panel ports. Verify link continuity and optical power levels after installation to confirm acceptable insertion loss and return loss.

Recommendations

Handle connectors by their housings, keep endfaces clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools, and avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius printed by the manufacturer. For highest performance, inspect endfaces before connection and use dust caps when the cable is not in service.
