Pre-terminated MPO 4x4 Shuffle Trunk Cable, 256 Fibers, 32xMPO-8 APC (Male) to 32xMPO-8 APC (Male), Multimode (OM4), Type 4, LSZH, 0.35dB Max, Breakout 80cm, Magenta
- Product Code: M4MPOA256M4
- Availability: In Stock
Fiber Type: 256F Male OM4 Shuffle
This pre-terminated 256 fiber MPO 4x4 shuffle trunk cable is built for ultra-high-density optical interconnections and complex mesh network topologies in modern enterprise data centers. Featuring 32 MPO-8 APC male (pinned) connectors on each end, this cable assembly directly routes and distributes 8-fiber optical channels without requiring external shuffle patch panels or intermediate frames.
Engineered with premium bend-insensitive OM4 50/125μm multimode fiber, it offers exceptional routing flexibility with a tight 7.5mm minimum bend radius. Featuring a Type 4 polarity layout, low maximum insertion loss of 0.35dB, and a durable double jacket with Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) compliance, this trunk cable delivers maximum physical protection and signal integrity for high-bandwidth optical networks.
KEY FEATURES
- Ultra high-density 256-fiber architecture utilizing a 4x4 shuffle layout with 32 x MPO-8 APC male (pinned) connectors on both ends.
- OM4 50/125μm multimode fiber performance optimized for 850nm and 1300nm optical links.
- Bend-insensitive fiber design with a tight 7.5mm minimum bend radius for flexible cabinet routing.
- Type 4 polarity scheme optimized for direct switch-to-switch mesh network architecture.
- Low optical insertion loss (≤0.35dB) combined with high return loss (≥35dB) for maximum transmission performance.
- Heavy-duty double jacket construction (23.1mm OD) with 0.8m (80cm) breakout legs (3.0mm OD) for convenient panel management.
