Key Technical Specifications

The 12-Fiber MTP/MTP OM3 Patch Cable is built with 50/125 µm laser-optimized OM3 multimode fiber and an aqua-colored jacket for easy identification in high-density data center cabling. The cable contains 12 fibers and is suitable for MTP/MPO-based backbone connections, fiber patch panels, cassette modules and high-density optical distribution systems.

The OM3 fiber can be specified to meet ITU-T G.651.1 and TIA-492AAAC requirements. With an effective modal bandwidth of ≥2000 MHz·km at 850nm, it supports high-speed multimode transmission for short-reach data center and enterprise backbone applications.

Both ends are terminated with MTP/MPO connectors, available in male or female configurations. Male connectors include guide pins, while female connectors are supplied without pins, allowing flexible matching with transceivers, adapter panels, MTP cassettes and pre-terminated cabling systems. Polarity options include Type A, Type B and Type C, supporting different structured cabling designs based on TIA fiber polarity methods.

For optical performance, the cable is available with standard-loss or low-loss MTP/MPO connector options. Typical insertion loss can be controlled at ≤0.35 dB, with optimized low-loss versions available down to ≤0.25 dB. The maximum insertion loss per connector is typically specified at ≤0.75 dB, depending on the selected performance grade. For multimode PC/UPC polished connectors, return loss is typically ≥20 dB.

The cable is optimized for 850nm and 1310nm operation. In common Ethernet applications, OM3 multimode fiber supports 10G transmission up to 300m and 40G/100G SR parallel optics up to 100m, subject to the transceiver type, channel insertion loss and overall link budget.

The standard cable construction uses a compact round cable design with aramid yarn strength members for improved tensile performance and mechanical protection. Jacket options include LSZH for indoor data center environments where low smoke and halogen-free performance are required. LSZH cable designs are commonly tested according to standards such as IEC 60332 for flame propagation, IEC 60754 for halogen acid gas emission and IEC 61034 for smoke density.

The cable can be supplied in customized lengths, connector genders, polarity types and jacket materials to match different cabinet layouts, MTP patching architectures and high-density network deployment requirements.

Performance Testing and Quality Assurance

Before shipment, every cable is subject to 100% optical performance testing, including insertion loss testing, return loss testing and end-face inspection. Insertion loss and return loss tests are performed according to the IEC 61300 series and TIA/EIA-568.3 standards to ensure typical insertion loss of ≤0.35 dB and return loss within the specified range.

The connector end face is inspected using 3D microscopy equipment and follows the requirements of IEC 61300-3-35, ensuring that the connector end face is free from critical scratches and contamination. All components are strictly screened before assembly. MTP connectors and fiber end-face polishing are processed using precision automated equipment to achieve stable optical performance and high repeatability.

Typical test data shows insertion loss in the range of 0.25–0.35 dB and UPC return loss of ≥20 dB. The connector mating durability is ≥500 times. The product can be manufactured and tested according to relevant reliability and environmental test requirements such as IEC 61753-1. The production process is controlled under an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system to ensure consistency and long-term reliability.

Why Choose FOCC 12-Fiber MTP/MTP OM3 Patch Cable?

The FOCC 12-Fiber MTP/MTP OM3 Patch Cable is developed for high-density data center cabling, telecom backbone links and modular MTP/MPO fiber architectures. It combines low insertion loss, compact cable routing and flexible configuration options, making it a practical solution for 10G, 40G and 100G multimode optical network deployment.

For high-speed links, optical loss control is one of the most important factors. This MTP OM3 patch cable is manufactured with precision-polished MTP/MPO connectors and strict fiber alignment control. Typical insertion loss can be controlled at ≤0.35 dB, while optimized low-loss versions can be supplied for projects with tighter link budget requirements.

For high-density racks and cabinets, the cable helps reduce the number of individual duplex patch cords. A 12-fiber MTP/MPO connection supports cleaner routing, easier cable management and higher port density when used with MTP cassettes, adapter panels or high-density fiber distribution frames.

FOCC also supports project-based customization. Customers can choose male or female MTP/MPO connectors, Type A, Type B or Type C polarity, LSZH or OFNP jacket materials, different cable diameters and custom lengths. This makes the cable easier to integrate into different data center layouts, telecom equipment rooms and system integration projects.

Each cable is tested before shipment for insertion loss, return loss and connector end-face quality. Test reports can be provided according to project requirements, helping buyers reduce installation risk and improve acceptance efficiency.

Packaging, Model Number and Ordering Options

FOCC supplies the 12-Fiber MTP/MTP OM3 Patch Cable with protective packaging designed for fiber optic cable transportation. Each cable is coiled with proper bend-radius control and packed in a sealed bag or protective carton to reduce mechanical stress during storage and delivery. Optical test reports, product labels and technical documentation can be included according to project requirements.

To make ordering easier, the product model can be defined by fiber count, connector type, fiber grade, polarity, jacket material and cable length. A typical model code is:

12F-MTP-MTP-OM3-A-LSZH-5M

This model represents a 12-fiber MTP/MTP OM3 multimode patch cable with Type A polarity, LSZH jacket and 5-meter cable length.

FOCC supports standard lengths such as 1m, 2m, 3m, 5m and 10m, as well as customized lengths for specific rack layouts, MTP cassette systems, optical distribution frames and data center backbone connections. Available options include male or female MTP/MPO connectors, Type A / Type B / Type C polarity, LSZH or OFNP jacket materials and different cable diameters based on the installation environment.

Before mass production, FOCC confirms the full cable configuration with the customer, including connector gender, polarity, fiber type, jacket material, cable length, labeling and packaging requirements. This helps reduce ordering mistakes and ensures the MTP/MPO cable is ready for installation when delivered.
