Eaton N390B-96M-8AP 96 m OM4 8-Fiber MPO APC Cable

Connect 8-fiber multimode MPO links across equipment rooms, data halls, or distributed network areas with a 96 m preterminated cable assembly. Eaton N390B-96M-8AP uses OM4 50/125 multimode fiber and MPO female connectors on both ends, providing a direct MPO-to-MPO patching path without field termination. Its 8-fiber construction suits parallel-optics pathways that require eight active fibers rather than a duplex LC connection. APC connector geometry supports installations that specify angled physical-contact MPO connections. The cable uses Type B polarity, a defined MPO polarity method that reverses fiber positions from one end of the assembly to the other. Matching the installed cassette, adapter, or transceiver polarity method is necessary to maintain the required transmit-to-receive path through the channel. The 96 m length distinguishes this assembly for longer in-building multimode runs where shorter patch leads cannot reach between termination points. Female MPO ends are intended to mate with corresponding MPO interfaces using the required pinning arrangement. Use this cable where the link design calls specifically for OM4 multimode fiber, 8-fiber MPO connectivity, APC polish, and Type B polarity; these attributes should match the rest of the fiber channel rather than be substituted independently.
