InfiniBand/fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP5141BU10MKB 10 m MPO 4x LC

The BlueOptics SFP5141BU10MKB is a 10 m single-mode MPO to 4x LC fibre optic breakout cable designed for high-density environments and high-speed data transmission. It uses G.657.A1 single-mode fibre with an 9 µm core diameter and an MPO (multi-fiber push-on) connector on one end and four LC duplex connectors on the other. The cable is jacketed in LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material and supports optical wavelengths in the 1270–1610 nm range, making it suitable for data centers, storage area networks and other networking installations that require compact, reliable fibre links.

Advantages

The MPO to 4x LC breakout design enables quick, tool-free installation and simple connectivity without the need for field splicing. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen release in case of fire, supporting safer installations in enclosed spaces. Low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics help maintain signal integrity over the defined wavelength range. Connectors are manufactured to industry-quality standards to provide consistent mating performance and long operational life.

Suitable for

• Data center trunking and module connections
• Interfacing MPO cassettes to LC ports and transceivers
• High-density rack and patch panel installations
• Storage area networks (SAN) and local area networks (LAN)

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Fibre type: Single-mode G.657.A1 (9 µm core)
• Connector configuration: 1x MPO (multi-fiber) to 4x LC duplex
• Number of fibres/cores: 8 (MPO breakout to 4 duplex LC)
• Wavelength range: 1270–1610 nm
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Suitable for MPO cassettes and LC transceivers

How to use

Connect the MPO end to the corresponding MPO port on a cassette, panel or transceiver module and plug the four LC duplex connectors into the matching LC ports on the target devices. Ensure connector endfaces are clean before mating to prevent contamination-related loss. Route the cable with appropriate bend radius and strain relief to avoid excessive bending or mechanical stress. No splicing or special assembly tools are required for installation.

Usage recommendations

Inspect and clean fibre endfaces before each connection, maintain minimum bend radius as specified by the manufacturer, and use labelled cable management to track lanes. For best performance, pair this cable with compatible MPO cassettes and qualified single-mode transceivers and verify link loss with appropriate test equipment if required.
