Description

The Juniper MTP-4LC-S5M is a 5-metre single-mode fibre (SMF) passive breakout cable that splits one MTP (12-fibre) connector into four LC duplex connectors, enabling a single 40G or 100G QSFP PSM4 port to fan out to four individual 10GBase-LR SFP+ connections. With no active electronics required, this passive design delivers reliable, low-latency fibre breakout for high-density data centre and core network deployments. The yellow SMF jacket conforms to industry colour coding standards and supports longer reach distances compared to multimode alternatives.

Compatible with Juniper MX, PTX, QFX, and ACX Series platforms, this cable is engineered to the correct Type B polarity required by Juniper Networks transceivers. It forms part of a broader family of MTP breakout cables available in 1m, 3m, 5m, and 10m lengths, making it straightforward to specify the right reach for your rack layout.

Features

- Passive breakout design — no active electronics required for simplified, low-latency deployment
- Single-mode fibre (SMF) supports longer reach distances than multimode equivalents
- Fans out a single 40G/100G QSFP PSM4 port to four individual LC duplex-connected 10G ports
- Compatible with Juniper MX, PTX, QFX, and ACX Series platforms
- Type B / Method B polarity — correct for Juniper Networks QSFP PSM4 transceivers
- Yellow SMF jacket complies with industry standard fibre colour coding
- Available in a family of lengths (1m, 3m, 5m, 10m) for flexible rack and inter-rack deployments

FAQs

Q: What devices is the MTP-4LC-S5M compatible with?
A: This cable is designed for use with Juniper Networks MX, PTX, QFX, and ACX Series devices equipped with 40G or 100G QSFP PSM4 optics, breaking out to four individual 10GBase-LR SFP+ ports.

Q: Is this an active or passive cable?
A: The MTP-4LC-S5M is a fully passive breakout cable — it contains no active electronics, which simplifies deployment, reduces power consumption, and improves reliability.

Q: What is the difference between this cable and an MMF equivalent?
A: This cable uses single-mode fibre (SMF), identified by the yellow jacket, which supports significantly longer reach distances than multimode fibre (MMF, typically orange or aqua). SMF is the preferred choice for inter-building or longer in-rack runs where extended reach is required.

Q: Does polarity matter when using this cable with Juniper transceivers?
A: Yes. The MTP-4LC-S5M is built to Type B / Method B polarity, which is the correct configuration for Juniper Networks QSFP PSM4 transceivers. Using incorrect polarity can result in link failures.

Q: Is a 5m length right for my deployment, and are other lengths available?
A: The 5m length suits most within-rack or top-of-rack to end-of-row runs. Juniper also offers this breakout cable family in 1m, 3m, and 10m variants — contact IP Trading to confirm availability of other lengths.
