Fiber optic trunk cable BlueOptics OM4 MPO–MPO 12‑fiber 7.5m (compatible with Ubiquiti UACC-OFC-MA-MPMP-7.5M)

BlueOptics OM4 MPO–MPO 12‑fiber trunk cable, 7.5 m, is a multimode fiber assembly built for high‑density trunking and parallel optics links in data centers and network rooms. The cable uses OM4 graded multimode fibers and MPO connectors at both ends, offering compact multi‑fiber connections suitable for linking MPO cassette panels, patch panels, switches and transceivers where a 12‑fiber multimode trunk is required. At 7.5 meters length it provides an intermediate reach for structured cabling runs between racks or within equipment cabinets.

Advantages

The OM4 multimode fiber provides higher modal bandwidth and is optimized for 10 GbE and higher short‑reach parallel optics applications. MPO–MPO terminations allow fast, space‑efficient installation and reduce the number of individual connector terminations compared with single‑fiber trunks. The 12‑fiber configuration supports common MPO cassette and breakout arrangements, enabling straightforward integration into existing high‑density cabling systems.

Suitable for

• High‑density trunking between MPO cassettes and patch panels
• Connecting switches, transceivers and high‑density modules in data centers
• Parallel optics links and short‑reach multimode Ethernet (10G, 40G, 100G depending on equipment)
• Structured cabling runs inside server rooms and equipment racks up to 7.5 m

When it may not be suitable

This multimode OM4 trunk cable is not intended for long‑haul singlemode applications or for environments that require singlemode fiber. It also may not be appropriate where individual LC or SC terminations are required at both ends instead of MPO bulkhead connections.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OM4 multimode
• Number of fibers: 12
• Connector type: MPO to MPO
• Length: 7.5 meters
• Application: multimode trunking and parallel optics
• Typical use: data center rack and patching installations

How to use

Route the trunk cable through cable management pathways between equipment racks or within cabinets, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tensile load. Align MPO connectors with corresponding MPO ports on cassettes, patch panels or transceivers using the keying to ensure correct polarity. Secure the cable to racks or trays to prevent strain on connectors and keep connectors protected with dust caps when not in use. Test end‑to‑end continuity and insertion loss after installation using appropriate multimode test equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that your network devices and cassettes use MPO connectors and support OM4 multimode fiber
• Verify required cable length and rack layout to avoid excess slack or insufficient reach
• Check polarity and transceiver compatibility for parallel optics links
• Assess bend radius restrictions and cable routing paths in your racks or trays

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable with dust caps fitted on MPO ends until installation. Maintain recommended minimum bend radius for multimode fiber and perform post‑installation optical testing for insertion loss and polarity verification to ensure reliable operation.
