Know before you buy
This cable is designed to transition a high-density MPO connection into six individual duplex LC connections. It is ideal for connecting high-speed switches, routers, or patch panels where you need to break out a single multi-fiber link into separate ports.
Yes, this OM3 cable supports 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet speeds at distances up to 100 meters. For 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications, it supports distances up to 300 meters.
Riser-rated (OFNR) indicates that the cable jacket is designed to prevent the spread of fire between floors in a building. It is suitable for vertical runs in conduit or walls, provided they are not in environmental air-handling spaces.
This is an OM3 multi-mode cable with a 50/125-micron core, which is standard for most modern high-speed data centers. As long as your transceivers and equipment support OM3 multi-mode fiber, this cable will be compatible.
This cable features a female MPO connector, which means it does not have guide pins. It is designed to connect to male MPO ports or adapters that contain the necessary alignment pins.
This product is backed by a lifetime warranty. If the cable fails under normal operating conditions, AddOn will support the replacement.
