Fiber MPO to 4x LC Breakout Cable CBO SFP5141BU5MKB, Singlemode, 5 m

Singlemode MPO to 4x LC Breakout Cable CBO SFP5141BU5MKB, 5 m is a trunk-to-pigtail fiber assembly designed to split a multi-fiber MPO into four individual LC connectors. Produced by BlueOptics for use in data centers, telecom racks and optical patch panels, this 5-meter singlemode breakout cable supports high-speed, low-loss transmission between MPO trunks and devices with LC interfaces. The cable simplifies cross-connections and equipment linking by converting a multi-fiber MPO trunk to separate single-fiber LC ports while maintaining alignment and optical performance.

Advantages

The MPO to 4x LC breakout design reduces installation time and space requirements compared with multiple discrete cables by consolidating connections in a single assembly. Singlemode fiber ensures low attenuation and stable performance over long distances typical in campus, metropolitan and carrier networks. Durable connectors and a robust cable jacket provide reliable mechanical protection and consistent optical alignment, minimizing insertion loss and return loss during regular operation.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Splitting MPO trunks to connect to LC ports on transceivers and patch panels
• High-density data center interconnects and cross-connects
• Telecommunications racks and central office fiber distribution
• Linking optical equipment with individual singlemode LC interfaces

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode (OS2-compatible)
• Configuration: MPO male to 4 × LC single-fiber connectors
• Length: 5 meters
• Connector polish: UPC/PC (consistent low return loss)
• Cable jacket: ruggedized outer sheath for rack and patch panel use
• Typical application: trunk breakout for high-density racks and patch panels

How to use

Route the MPO end to the MPO trunk or cassette and insert the connector until it seats securely. Route the four LC connectors to their respective transceivers or patch panel ports and insert each LC connector until a click confirms proper engagement. Ensure connectors and adapter ports are clean before mating to avoid contamination-related loss. Secure and manage the cable using cable managers or Velcro ties to prevent excessive bending and maintain the recommended minimum bend radius for singlemode fiber.

Usage recommendations

Inspect and clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before installation, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force, and use labeled fiber management to maintain traceability in high-density installations.
