Cable system based on MPO

Pre-terminated fiber optic cable system based on MPO connectors. Solutions for MPO data centers with OM3, OM4 multimode fiber, or OS2 single mode fiber.

There is a growing need for improved network bandwidth usage. This is pushing the data transmission limits. Data centers are at the cutting edge of implementing high speed applications. To choose equipment for data centers, you have to consider such important things as high density, scalability, and resilience. This is why high density fiber optic solutions are still the best option for data centers.

Small-size MPO connector

A fiber optic MPO system is a channel that includes pre-terminated multifiber cables which are connected to pre-terminated fiber optic cassettes. MPT connectors are small size 12 fiber connectors which enable high density in patch panels and terminal cabinets.

Features:

  • 12 fibers in a connector
  • Supports both 10 Gbps and future 40/100 Gbps applications
  • Low insertion loss ≤ 0.35 dB
  • A perfect combination of compact size and reliability

MPO patch cords

MPO cable assemblies are used in high density fiber optic systems to connect equipment to multifiber cables. They consist of 12-fiber assemblies terminated by 12-fiber connectors on both sides.

Key features:

MPO connector

Fiber Type Single Mode Multimode
Insertion Loss (dB) ≤ 0.35 (Elite) ≤ 0.35 (Elite)
Return Loss ≥ 60 ≥ 20

MPO distribution cassettes

A cassette is a module with one or two 12-fiber assemblies. It has a 12-fiber MPO connector in the rear, and LC discrete optical connectors in the front. These parts are assembled in a plastic housing. The housing has clamps for installation in a 19" optic distribution box.

Key features:

MPO connector

Fiber Type Single Mode Multimode
Insertion Loss (dB) ≤ 0.35 (Elite) ≤ 0.35 (Elite)
Return Loss ≥ 60 ≥ 20
LC connector

Fiber Type Single Mode Multimode
Insertion Loss (dB) ≤ 0.30 (Elite) ≤ 0.30 (Elite)
Return Loss ≥ 60 ≥ 20

19" fiber optical boxes for MPO cassettes

Special purpose optic distribution boxes make it possible to insert cassettes in 19''structural elements. Cassettes (4 ea) can be inserted horizontally in 1U panels. They can also be inserted vertically (12 ea) in 3U panels.

The panel has a plain and space-saving metal housing which enables maximum density. Feed-through holes are at the rear and on each side of the housing. Cross-connects have a hinged face plate to protect the optical patch cord push/pull tabs.

LC patch cords for high density panels

Patch cords are terminated by LC discrete duplex connectors with Push/Pull Tabs on both sides. Two optic fibers have the same shield which improves flexibility and enables high density. LC-HD low loss patch cords are the best choice for high capacity networks in data centers.

Push-pull connector

  • Linear connection and locking mechanism.
  • Pressure mechanism prevents accidental disconnection.
  • Low loss, IL≤0.3dB

MPO to LC fanout assembly

MPO to LC fanouts enable connection of 12-fiber MPO connectors to standard LC optic terminals. Cables ban be connected directly to active equipment.

Key features:

MPO connector

Fiber Type Single Mode Multimode
Insertion Loss (dB) ≤ 0.35 (Elite) ≤ 0.35 (Elite)
Return Loss ≥ 60 ≥ 20
LC connector

Fiber Type Single Mode Multimode
Insertion Loss (dB) ≤ 0.30 (Elite) ≤ 0.30 (Elite)
Return Loss ≥ 60 ≥ 20

MPO features and advantages

Scalable solution

A powerful modular solution that supports 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet The design features and a full range of modular components enable easy system maintenance and update. You will need no special tools or expert help to connect new elements.

High density patching

Efficient space saving: 96LC ports per 1U. Thanks to patch cord push/pull tabs, the system is easy to operate in high density patching environments.

Factory-tested

Up-to-date end finish processes and higher fiber end geometry standards enable high performances and excellent specifications. Each system element has to pass a number of diagnostic tests. End finish is checked for compliance with industry standards using a 3D-interferometer.

MPO system components

System elements are available in stock in various configurations. They can also be customized for various polarities, fiber types, trunk lengths and number of cassette ports.
