MPO/APC-patchkaapeli BlueOptics MPO12-4DLC-SM-3 3 metriä Singlemode

The BlueOptics MPO12-4DLC-SM-3 3 Meter Singlemode is a factory-terminated MPO/APC patch cable engineered for singlemode fiber networks. It uses MPO12 connectors and APC polishing on the multi-fiber end with duplex LC connectors on the other end to connect high-density trunk lines to duplex equipment ports. With a 3 meter jacket length and singlemode fiber construction, the cable is suited for precise optical alignment, low insertion loss and stable signal transmission in structured cabling and data center interconnects.

Advantages

This singlemode MPO/APC patch cable provides low back reflection thanks to APC polishing, consistent insertion loss across all fibers, and compatibility with MPO12 trunk panels and LC duplex ports. The pre-terminated construction reduces installation time and errors compared with field-terminated solutions. Its standardized connector geometry supports high-density deployments while maintaining signal integrity over short to medium reach singlemode links.

Key specifications

How to use

Route the BlueOptics MPO/APC patch cable between the MPO trunk panel or transceiver and the target duplex LC port on equipment or patch panels. Before insertion, inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness and remove dust with appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Align the MPO connector into the MPO receptacle until it seats securely and latch the LC duplex connectors into the device ports. Ensure proper bend radius is maintained along the run to avoid excess attenuation.

Recommendations

Use this MPO12 to 4x LC duplex breakout cable when connecting MPO trunk lines to duplex equipment or when deploying parallel optics with subsequent breakout. Store and route the cable to respect minimum bend radius guidelines for singlemode fiber, keep connectors capped when not in use, and perform optical power or insertion loss tests after installation to verify link performance.
