Dell OM4 MPO12 cable for 40/100Gbps links

This Dell OM4 multimode fibre cable carries 40Gbps and 100Gbps Ethernet over a five-metre run. It targets data-centre operators and network engineers who need short-reach, high-density interconnects between switches, servers and storage arrays. The 12-fibre MPO12 male connectors with key alignment plug directly into compatible transceivers or patch panels. It suits 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR10 deployments in enterprise and cloud environments.

12-core MPO12 male-to-male assembly

The cable terminates in MPO12 connectors on both ends, providing a 12-fibre channel in a single push-on interface that reduces patching time compared with individual duplex connectors. Low insertion loss is specified to maintain signal integrity across the link. Compliance with IEC 61754-7 and TIA/EIA-604-5 ensures mechanical interoperability with standard MPO hardware. RoHS compliance confirms restricted-substance adherence for regulated deployments.

Verify MPO12 keyed ports and OM4 multimode support

Before ordering, confirm that your transceivers, patch panels or cassette modules present MPO12 keyed ports with the correct polarity map for a male-to-male 12-fibre jumper. Ensure the active equipment supports OM4 multimode fibre at the intended 40Gbps or 100Gbps Ethernet rate. Check that the five-metre length fits the physical routing path between the two connection points without excess slack or tension.

Questions about this item

Does the 12-core MPO12 cable need periodic cleaning or ferrule replacement?

The MPO12 connectors follow IEC 61754-7 and TIA/EIA-604-5 standards; inspect and clean ferrules with approved tools whenever links are disconnected to maintain low insertion loss.

What is the maximum reach for 100GBASE-SR10 over this OM4 cable?

OM4 multimode fibre supports 100GBASE-SR10 up to 100 metres; this 5-metre assembly is well within that limit.

Does the cable generate heat or draw power during continuous 40Gbps or 100Gbps operation?

The passive fibre assembly carries only light signals, so it produces no heat and consumes no electrical power regardless of data rate.
