Trying to stay on pace with industry standards for fiber optics performance, transmission speeds and bandwidth seems like a never-ending struggle. As demands rise, cabling piles up and navigating the data center space appears an impossible task. The LightWave OM3 12-Fiber MTP/MPO to LC Fiber Optic Fanout Cable is designed to help you tackle this challenge head-on with a space efficient and performance-driven solution.
This cable holds 12 fibers in a single connector, allowing for high density connections. On the opposite end, the cable fans out to 12 LC connectors. This small form factor connector style is also known for its space-saving capabilities. This fiber optic cable comes in a rollover "Type B" polarity.
Using this cable, you can transmit data over a 50/125 micron 1Gbps fiber link a distance of up to 1000 meters at a wavelength of 850nm, or a distance of up to 550 meters at a wavelength of 1300nm. On a 10Gbps link, you can transfer data a distance of up to 300 meters at 850nm.
All LightWave brand fiber optic patch cables, including this MTP-LC fiber optic cable, are assembled to meet and exceed industry performance standards. Each product is individually tested to make sure you receive the highest possible quality, and the results of each test are included with the product.
LightWave brand MTP Cables are fully compliant with the guidelines of the Trade Agreements Act (TAA), and are approved for United States Government use.
