Fibre optic cable BlueOptics MC6709309-010-BO 10 m OM3 MPO to 4×LC (50 µm) aqua

BlueOptics MC6709309-010-BO is a 10 m OM3 multimode fibre optic cable with an MPO connector on one end and four LC connectors on the other, designed for full-duplex transmission. The 50 µm core diameter and OM3 specification support high-bandwidth short-range links, and the aqua jacket provides clear visual identification in structured cabling environments. This cable is intended for use in data centre backbones, server interconnects and high-speed InfiniBand links where compact multi-fibre termination and reliable multimode performance are required.

Advantages

The MPO to 4×LC breakout design reduces panel space by consolidating multiple channels into a single MPO interface while delivering four separate duplex LC terminations. OM3 grading with a 50 µm core optimises transmission for 10 Gb/s and higher short-reach applications and maintains low attenuation across multimode links. The 10 m length offers flexibility for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections without excess slack, and the aqua outer jacket aids quick visual routing and compliance with common colour-coding practices for OM3 multimode cabling.

Suitable for

• Data centre trunking and cross-connects
• Server to switch or switch-to-switch high-speed links
• InfiniBand and other high-bandwidth multimode applications
• Structured cabling systems requiring MPO breakout to LC

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM3 multimode (50 µm core)
• Connector A: MPO (multi-fibre male/female as applicable)
• Connector B: 4 × LC duplex
• Length: 10 metres
• Jacket colour: aqua
• Transmission: designed for full-duplex multimode links

How to use

Install the MPO end into the corresponding MPO port on a patch panel, cassette or active equipment, ensuring correct orientation and secure latching. Route the cable to the destination rack or device and connect the four LC connectors into the matching LC ports or adapter panel, observing transmit/receive pairing for full-duplex operation. Maintain appropriate bend radius during routing and secure the cable to cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this OM3 cable in environments designed for multimode links, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force, and keep connector end-faces clean—inspect and clean ferrules before mating. Use compatible MPO cassettes or fan-out assemblies when integrating into high-density panels, and verify polarity and channel mapping during installation to ensure correct duplex pairing.
