Cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM4-10 — MTP a MTP, OM4, 10 m, viola

EFB Elektronik MTPF12MTPFOM4-10 is a 10 m OM4 multimode fibre optic cable with MTP connectors on both ends, intended for high-speed InfiniBand and fibre channel links in data centres and network cabinets. The cable supports dense, parallel transmission across multiple fibres in a single MTP ferrule, enabling compact interconnects between switches, servers and storage arrays. The violet outer jacket provides visual identification to simplify cable management and routing in rack environments.

Advantages

The cable offers low insertion loss and consistent multimode performance across OM4-rated wavelengths, suitable for short to medium reach high-bandwidth links. MTP connectors allow quick, repeatable mating of multiple fibres in one operation, reducing installation time and the risk of individual connector damage. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment connections, while the violet jacket assists in organized cabling and easier fault tracing.

Suitable for

• Data centre switch-to-switch or switch-to-patch-panel high-density interconnects
• Server and storage equipment connections requiring multimode high-bandwidth links
• InfiniBand cluster interconnects and fibre channel SAN links
• Patch panel and MPO/MTP backbone cabling in structured cabling systems

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OM4 multimode fibre designed for improved bandwidth and reach compared to OM3
• Connector type: MTP to MTP (multi-fibre push-on/pull-off style connector)
• Length: 10 metres
• Jacket colour: violet for visual identification
• Polish/configuration: factory-terminated multi-fibre MPO/MTP assembly (12 fibre configuration)
• Typical applications: short to medium reach high-speed parallel links in data centre environments

How to use

Inspect both MTP connectors and the cable jacket for damage before installation. Route the cable through cable management trays or protected pathways, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Align the MTP connectors with the corresponding receptacles on equipment or patch panels, ensuring correct orientation and gentle insertion until the connector latches. Verify link integrity with appropriate optical test equipment or by confirming signal and link status on connected devices.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, handle MTP connectors by the connector body, use dust caps when connectors are not mated, and perform regular inspection and cleaning with approved fibre cleaning tools. Use this OM4 MTP cable for consolidated parallel optics and high-density trunking where 12-fibre MPO/MTP assemblies are required; match polarity and keying to the system design and verify compatibility with active equipment and patch panels before deployment.
