Belden Inc. FP44F4F001M OM4 MPO8 Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. FP44F4F001M is a factory-terminated OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable featuring MPO8 female connectors on both ends. Designed for high-density structured cabling environments, this cable supports the short-reach, high-bandwidth connections required in data centers, server rooms, and enterprise network backbones. The OM4 fiber classification supports data rates up to 100 Gb/s at appropriate distances. At 1 meter in length, it is suited for equipment-bay cross-connects and inter-chassis links where minimal slack is needed. Installation is handled by licensed low-voltage or data communications cabling technicians.

This patch cable is used in high-density fiber distribution and switching applications where MPO8 trunk systems are deployed. Typical scenarios include connecting fiber cassettes to active switching equipment, linking MPO-based breakout modules, and structured cabling installations within data center rows or telecommunications rooms. The 1-meter length is standard for same-rack and adjacent-rack connections.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth, short-reach data center links
• MPO8 female connectors on both ends for direct cassette-to-device or cassette-to-cassette connections
• Factory-terminated and tested for reliable insertion loss performance
• 1-meter length minimizes cable management bulk in high-density installations
• Compatible with MPO8 fiber infrastructure including trunk cables and cassette modules

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cord for OM4 MPO8 structured fiber cabling systems in data center and enterprise environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified low-voltage or data communications cabling technicians familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Clean connector end-faces with an approved fiber cleaning tool before mating to avoid insertion loss from contamination. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local structured cabling standards during installation.
