OM3 MPO Fiber Optic Cable 8-Fiber Fanout LC UPC Aqua Data Center Patch Cord

The OM3 MPO fiber optic cable is a precision-engineered fanout assembly purpose-built for high-density data center environments. Manufactured in China under strict process control, this 8-fiber cable combines a high-grade MPO/MTP connector with a lszh jacket that resists flame spread and maintains stable transmission across demanding operating conditions. Every assembly is 100% factory tested to guarantee insertion loss and return loss figures that exceed the requirements of ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA/EIA-568-C.2, making it a dependable backbone and patching solution for 10G, 40G, 100G and emerging 400G/800G links.

Engineered for fast deployment, this cable supports plug-and-play connectivity in smart building cabling systems, equipment rooms and hyperscale data centers. The UPC polishing process on the LC and MPO/MTP interfaces delivers consistent geometry, stable optical performance and a long service life even after repeated mating cycles. Customers can specify fiber length, polarity, connector plug style and fan-out configuration to match their exact installation requirements, and order in volume with flexible capacity expansion as the business grows.

• Low Insertion Loss: Typical IL of ≤0.15dB and maximum IL of ≤0.30dB on the MPO interface, with ≤0.15dB typical on the LC side, ensure strong optical budget for long-haul links.
• High Return Loss: UPC grinding achieves typical return loss of ≥35dB (minimum ≥30dB), minimizing back reflection and protecting transceiver performance.
• OM3 Performance: The Aqua jacket identifies a OM3 backbone rated for high-speed multimode transmission with low modal dispersion.
• Flame-Retardant Jacket: LSZH outer sheath meets IEC 60332 flame-retardant requirements, improving safety in dense cable trays and raised floors.
• Field-Ready Termination: LC connector plug with PC 0° grinding supports quick mating and 100% factory-polished quality assurance.
• Customizable Configuration: Length, polarity (Type B or C), fiber count and breakout options can be tailored to project drawings at no loss of reliability.

Ideal for fan-out patching from MPO trunks to individual LC equipment ports in 10G/40G networks.

The OM3 fanout cable breaks an 8-fiber MPO connector out to eight LC UPC legs, giving installers a clean way to distribute parallel-optics signals to individual transceivers and switches. Its slim 1.8mm legs reduce bulk in cable managers and speed up moves, adds and changes in crowded cabinets.

Each OM3 MPO fiber optic cable is individually coiled and sealed in a protective polybag, then packed in export-grade corrugated cartons with partition inserts to prevent crushing during transit. Reels or spools are available for trunk lengths on request. Custom labeling, test reports and barcoding can be provided for large projects.

Quality is assured through a full manufacturing traceability chain: 100% insertion-loss and return-loss testing on every connector, 3D interferometry geometry inspection, and end-face visual examination before shipment. Our factory operates a documented quality management system and supplies compliant test certificates with each batch, so installers can commission links with confidence on day one.
