StarTech.com MPO to LC Multi Mode OM3 Fibre Optic Cable, 50/125μm, Aqua, 1m / 1861650

MPO8LCPL1M Fibre Cable This MPO/MTP to 8x LC breakout cable lets you fan out a single 40Gbps connection from a 40GBase-SR4 QSFP+ transceiver to four 10Gbps LC SFP+ transceivers. The push-and-pull tabs optimize accessibility and let you install or remove the connectors with one hand, without using additional tools. Plus, the slim uniboot design of the LC connectors saves space and improves cable management. The MPO cable is housed in a plenum-rated jacket and is ideal for installations where CMP fire rating is required. Each OM3 fibre cable has been individually tested for insertion loss and return loss. The full test report is included in each cable bag. The MPO8LCPL1M from StarTech.com is backed by a lifetime warranty.

Multi-mode: this type of fibre cable is designed with a larger core to carry multiple light rays or modes at the same time and made of glass fibres. Multi-mode fibre is usually used to transmit modes over shorter distances, typically, less than 1km as these modes can scatter over longer paths. Multi-mode Fibre core diameters are usually 50,62.5 and 100 micrometers. Single-mode: this type of fibre cable has a smaller core size. Usually up to 10microns and designed for light to travel down a single path for much longer distances, usually of up to 100km. Single-mode transmits a higher bandwidth than multi-mode fibre cables but needs a narrow light source spectral.
