Cable de red NVIDIA MPO-12/APC multimodo recto a MPO-12/APC multimodo recto 980-9I57W-000007

The NVIDIA MPO-12/APC Multi-Mode Straight to MPO-12/APC Multi-Mode Straight network cable is designed for high-density, high-throughput fiber environments. Built for data center and HPC deployments, this multi-mode fiber cable uses MPO-12/APC connectors at both ends to provide stable multi-channel optical links with low insertion loss. The cable assembly supports parallel optical transmission and is intended for use where reliable, repeatable performance and reduced signal degradation are required.

Advantages

This cable offers compact MPO-12/APC connectivity that enables multiple simultaneous channels within a single connector interface, reducing rack space and simplifying cabling runs. Engineered for low signal loss and consistent optical performance, it helps maintain link integrity across short- to medium-distance multimode links. The robust jacket and connector construction improve mechanical durability and provide reliable mating cycles suitable for frequent installation and reconfiguration.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects and spine-to-leaf links
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and server fabrics
• Patch panels and MPO trunk consolidation in multimode deployments
• Environments requiring high port density and parallel optics

Key specifications

• Connector type: MPO-12 with APC polish on both ends (multi-mode)
• Fiber type: multimode optical fiber
• Configuration: straight through, 12-fiber parallel arrangement
• Performance: designed for low insertion loss and low back reflection typical of APC terminations
• Durability: engineered for repeated mating cycles and mechanical stability
• Cable jacket: ruggedized for data center routing (indoor use)

How to use

Inspect connectors and fiber endfaces for cleanliness before installation and, if necessary, clean using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Route the cable through cable management paths to avoid sharp bends and excessive stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fiber. Align and mate MPO-12/APC connectors into compatible MPO ports, ensuring correct orientation and full seating of the connector. Verify optical link performance with an appropriate test instrument after installation to confirm acceptable insertion loss and channel connectivity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to avoid contaminating connector endfaces; use dust caps when connectors are not in use. Use this multimode MPO-12/APC assembly in environments designed for multimode optics and parallel transceivers, and follow data center cabling best practices for routing, strain relief, and labeling to maintain optimal performance.
