Belden FP44F4F00M5 OM4 MPO8 Fiber Patch Cable 0.5m

Product Description

The Belden FP44F4F00M5 is an OM4 multimode fiber patch cable with MPO8 female connectors on both ends and a 0.5m cable length. OM4 fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 40G and 100G data center interconnects. The pre-terminated MPO8 format allows for quick, tool-free breakout connections in structured cabling systems. This cable is typically installed by network technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals working in data centers, server rooms, and high-density fiber distribution environments.

This patch cable is suited for high-density fiber optic installations where space and speed are critical. The 0.5m length targets short-reach connections within racks or between adjacent patch panels and switches. The MPO8 female-to-female configuration makes it a straightforward jumper for back-to-back panel connections or trunk cable terminations. It ships as a single unit and is used in both new installations and upgrade projects requiring OM4-rated multimode performance.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber for 40G and 100G application support
• MPO8 female connectors on both ends for tool-free installation
• 0.5m cable length designed for short-reach, in-rack connections
• Pre-terminated for immediate deployment without field polishing
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use jumper for OM4 multimode fiber patch panels and MPO8-compatible switch ports in high-density structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or qualified network cabling professionals. Always inspect MPO connector end-faces and clean with an approved fiber optic cleaning tool before mating. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing. Power down active ports before inserting or removing fiber connectors to protect both the cable and the optical transceiver.
