MPO patch cable

Application of 12 Core MPO/MTP Fiber Patch Cable

With ever-greater bandwidths and network connections to deal with in data centers, traditional duplex fiber patch cords like LC fiber patch cords no longer meet the demands. To solve this issue, MTP/MPO fiber optic cable that houses more fibers in a multi-fiber MTP/MPO connector was introduced in the market as a practical solution for 40G/100G/400G high-density cabling in data centers.

MPO 12 Fiber Cables are most commonly used to establish a connection between two high density fiber patch panels in order to consolidate the fibers and widely used in high-density data center cabling solutions because of their high core count, small size, and high transmission rate. MPO connectors are able to deliver dozens of fiber strands contained within a single unit. According to the number of cores, they can be divided into 12 cores, 16 cores, 24 cores, 48 cores, etc.

Product advantages

  • Small sizes, can minimize wiring space.
  • Modular design, plug-and-play, easy to use, and flexible
  • Applicable to 1.25G, 10G, 40G, and 100G solutions to meet different configuration requirements.
  • Outstanding performance with low insertion loss.

The mains types include MPO/MTP patch cable, MPO/MTP trunk cable, and MPO/MTP breakout cable, they are ideal for high-density cabling networks and provide better network capacity and flexibility. Besides, MTP/MPO cable consists of MTP/MPO connector and optical fiber. MTP/MPO connector has a female type (without pins) or a male type (with pins). 

Conclusion

MTP/MPO cables provide stable transmission, high performance, high-density cabling for various environments, and prevent network bottlenecks, reduce network latency, and expand bandwidth and scalability for future network expansion.
