8F MPO(Male) -LC Fan-out 0.9mm 30cm cables
8cores MPO Male – LC Fan-out 0.9mm 30cm patch cable are designed for MPO-LC LGX module cassettes are terminated with MPO and LC connector on each end. It’s specifically designed for high-density fiber patching in data centers which need space saving and reduce cable management troubles.
SM 8F MPO- LC/SC/FC/ST Fanout 0.9mm Cables are optimized for 40G QSFP+ PLR4 to 10G SFP+ LR optics direct connection and high-density data center applications.
OM3/OM4 8F MPO- LC/SC/FC/ST Fanout 0.9mm Cables are optimized for 40G QSFP+ SR4 to 10G SFP+ SR, 100G QSFP SR4 to 25G SFP-25G-SR-S optics direct connection and high-density data center applications.
This 8 Fiber harness cable is used for a direct connection between QSFP+ to (4) SFP+ ports with no patch panels or intermediate trunks in between.
