Belden Inc. FP3LUMF002M OM3 MPO12 Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FP3LUMF002M is an OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable featuring a 12-fiber MPO female connector configuration. This patch cable is designed for high-density fiber optic installations where reliable multimode transmission is required. Built to OM3 performance standards, it supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet and parallel optics systems. The 2-meter length suits short interconnect runs in structured cabling environments. Installation is handled by low-voltage cabling technicians and licensed data communications contractors.

This patch cable is suited for data center, enterprise networking, and telecommunications environments where OM3 multimode fiber infrastructure is in place. The MPO12 female interface supports MTP and MPO trunk and breakout assemblies, making it appropriate for high-density patch panel and cassette-based fiber systems. Typical applications include server interconnects, switch-to-switch links, and backbone cabling runs within equipment rooms.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber construction supports high-bandwidth applications up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• MPO12 female connector enables high-density fiber port utilization
• 2-meter cable length suited for short in-rack and cross-connect applications
• 6-fiber low-loss uniboot-style design supports organized, space-efficient routing
• Factory-terminated and tested construction for consistent insertion loss performance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OM3 multimode MPO12 female patch cable compatible with MPO and MTP-based fiber optic patch panels, cassettes, and active equipment with matching MPO12 female ports in OM3 multimode fiber systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified low-voltage or fiber optic cabling technicians following TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Deactivate connected equipment and disable transmitters before handling fiber connectors to avoid eye hazard from laser sources. Inspect and clean MPO connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before mating to protect against contamination-related signal loss. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing and management.
