DeLOCK 84871 fibre optic cable MPO socket to 12 x SC simplex plug

The DeLOCK optical fiber cable MPO female to 12 x SC Simplex male (model 84871) is a fanout cable for single-mode networks with a 9/125 µm core diameter. One end features an MPO/UPC female connector while the other end breaks out into twelve SC/UPC simplex male connectors. At 2 meters length, the cable is suitable for distributing optical signals from a single MPO port to multiple SC ports in patch panels, switches or other network equipment.

Advantages

This MPO to SC fanout cable supports single-mode transmission with UPC polish for low return loss and stable signal integrity. The 12-fiber breakout design simplifies high-density cabling layouts by enabling one MPO link to connect directly to multiple SC ports. The 2 m length provides flexibility for rack- and cabinet-mounted installations while the specified 9/125 µm fiber core matches standard single-mode devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting MPO ports to multiple SC ports in data center patch panels
• Linking network switches, transceivers and distribution frames
• Single-mode fiber installations requiring a 12-fiber fanout
• Short interconnects within racks and equipment cabinets (2 m length)

How to use

Connect the MPO/UPC female end to the MPO port in your patch panel or transceiver cassette. Route the twelve SC simplex male connectors to the corresponding SC ports on switches, distribution frames or other equipment, ensuring proper alignment and secure connections. Avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius for single-mode fiber during installation. Verify signal continuity and insertion loss with appropriate testing equipment after connection.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this cable in single-mode systems with UPC-terminated components and keep the MPO and SC connectors clean. Protect the fiber from tight bends and mechanical stress, and perform optical loss testing after installation to confirm link quality.
