Fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP5141EU10MKB 10 m OM3 MPO to 4×LC aqua

BlueOptics SFP5141EU10MKB is a 10 m fibre optic breakout cable designed for high-speed multimode networks. The cable uses OM3 multimode fibre with a 125 µm core diameter and features an MPO connector on one end and four LC connectors (4×LC) on the other. The aqua-coloured outer jacket identifies it for OM3 applications and simplifies rack and patch-panel routing when connecting MPO trunk lines to LC ports in switches, transceivers and patch panels.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable supports high-density MPO-to-LC breakout connectivity in a single 10 m assembly, reducing the need for multiple separate patch cords. OM3 multimode construction provides multimode compatibility and supports common multimode protocols and transceivers. The pre-terminated MPO to 4×LC configuration simplifies installation by providing ready-made, factory-polished connectors and eliminating field termination. The aqua jacket colour helps with quick identification of OM3 cabling in data centre and telecommunication environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting MPO trunk cables to 4 LC ports on switches, transceivers or patch panels
• Multimode fibre networks using OM3 links
• High-density data centre and rack installations requiring MPO breakout
• InfiniBand and short-reach multimode applications

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Fibre type: OM3 multimode
• Core diameter: 125 µm
• Connector A: MPO (multi-fibre push-on/pull-off)
• Connector B: 4 × LC (aqua, duplex-style LC connectors)
• Jacket colour: aqua (OM3 identification)
• Application: MPO trunk to LC breakout for multimode networks

How to use

Route the MPO end to the MPO trunk or cassette/multi-fibre port and plug the MPO connector into the MPO adapter or transceiver housing, ensuring proper alignment and latch engagement. Route the four LC connectors to the corresponding LC ports on switches, transceivers or patch panels and insert them one by one, taking care to match transmit/receive orientation where required. Maintain proper bend radius during routing and secure the cable to avoid strain on connectors. Verify link status and perform any required testing with appropriate multimode fibre test equipment or transceiver diagnostics.

Usage recommendations

Handle connectors with clean hands and use fibre-safe cleaning tools for MPO and LC endfaces before connection. Observe manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius for OM3 multimode cables and avoid excessive tension. Use this cable for short-reach multimode environments and pair it with compatible OM3-rated transceivers and patching hardware for optimal performance.
