StarTech Fibre Optic Cable, 5m Cable Length, Aqua Jacket - MPO12PL5M
This Fibre optic cable provides high-density multimode connectivity for data centre and enterprise environments. It links MPO/MTP ports to support parallel optics connections, enabling direct 40Gbps interconnects or breakout to multiple 10Gbps links via a patch panel. The assembly uses OM3 multimode Fibres in a plenum-rated jacket for installations requiring low smoke zero halogen materials and CE compliance.
Features and Benefits:
• 40Gbps support enables high-throughput switch-to-switch links
• 12-core configuration increases port density and rack efficiency
• OFNP plenum jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions during fire
• Insertion loss below 0.5 dB maintains signal integrity
• Individually tested cables include a return loss report
• 12-core configuration increases port density and rack efficiency
• OFNP plenum jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions during fire
• Insertion loss below 0.5 dB maintains signal integrity
• Individually tested cables include a return loss report
Applications
• Suitable for 40GBASE-SR4 parallel optics networks
• Ideal for connecting QSFP+ transceivers in data centres
• Used with patch panels to break out to 10Gbps LC pairs
• Can be used for SAN interconnects and storage servers

What connector type is fitted on this assembly?
It uses MTP/MPO female connectors with PC-polished endfaces.
Which modal bandwidth and wavelengths are supported?
The fibres operate with VCSEL sources at 850 nm and 1300 nm and a modal bandwidth of 2000 MHz·km at 850 nm.
What construction details affect electromagnetic immunity?
The 50/125 μm core/cladding multimode design is inherently immune to EMI.
How is physical size and cable routing described?
The cable has a 3.0 mm outer diameter and a flexible push-pull tab design for connector access.
