MPO-MPO Multimode OM4 Patch Cable 10m BlueOptics CB-M12-M12-MMF10M

The BlueOptics CB-M12-M12-MMF10M is a 10-meter MPO‑to‑MPO multimode fiber patch cable constructed to OM4 specifications and presented in blue. It is engineered for high‑density networking and data center interconnects where low insertion loss and preserved signal integrity are required over short- to medium-range multimode links. The cable assembly uses MPO connectors on both ends to support parallel optics and multi‑fiber transceivers commonly used in 40G/100G applications and structured cabling backbones.

Advantages

The OM4 multimode fiber core and precision-polished MPO connectors reduce attenuation and modal dispersion compared with lower-grade multimode types, supporting higher bandwidth and greater reach for multimode systems. The 10 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack and equipment-to-equipment connections inside data centers and telecom rooms. The cable jacket and connector housing are designed for repeated handling and installation, delivering consistent optical performance and reliable alignment of multiple fiber channels.

Suitable for

• Data center trunking and top-of-rack connections
• Parallel optics links for 40G and 100G transceivers
• High‑density fiber patching panels and MTP/MPO cassettes
• Short- to medium-range multimode backbone runs in enterprise networks

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Multimode OM4
• Connector type: MPO to MPO (multi‑fiber MPO connectors on both ends)
• Length: 10 meters
• Color: Blue
• Core count: multi‑fiber configuration suitable for parallel/transceiver use
• Typical usage: designed for high bandwidth multimode links and parallel optics

How to use

Route the MPO‑MPO multimode cable through cable management channels or trays to avoid tight bends; adhere to the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for OM4 fiber. Before mating connectors, inspect and, if required, clean MPO endfaces with an appropriate fiber inspection tool and cleaning supplies to prevent contamination and insertion loss. Align and insert the MPO connectors into compatible MPO ports or adapters until the connector latch engages; verify link continuity and optical loss with appropriate testing equipment after installation.

Usage recommendations

Store the cable coiled without sharp bends and protect MPO endfaces with dust caps when not connected. For reliable operation in 40G/100G systems, use MPO assemblies matched to the transceiver and ensure polarity and fiber mapping conform to the system requirements. Periodically inspect and clean connector endfaces to maintain low insertion loss.
