Lenovo MPO to 4xLC Breakout Cable

This Lenovo fibre optic cable splits a single MPO connector into four LC male connectors. It is built for multi-mode OM4 networks and measures 3.28 ft in length. The assembly connects servers or network devices that use MPO trunk cabling to equipment with LC ports.

Upgrading from duplex LC patch cords

The breakout design replaces four separate duplex LC patch cords with one MPO-terminated cable. The jump is worth it when rack density is high and you want to reduce cable count and management overhead in a multi-mode OM4 environment.

Installers aggregating LC links into an MPO backbone

Suits technicians who need to fan out an MPO trunk to four LC connections on switches, transceivers or patch panels. Not for single-mode infrastructure, for links that require APC polish, or for runs longer than the supplied 3.28 ft.

Questions about this item

What panel cut-out or adapter plate does the MPO connector on this Lenovo breakout cable need?

The MPO end plugs directly into a standard MPO bulkhead or transceiver port; no special cut-out beyond a regular MPO opening is required.

How do I seat the four LC connectors without damaging the ferrules?

Push each LC plug straight into its SFP or patch-panel port until the latch clicks; avoid side loading the ceramic ferrules.

When should I replace this OM4 multi-mode cable?

Replace it if insertion loss exceeds your link budget, the jacket shows cracks, or any LC/MPO ferrule is scratched or contaminated.
