The present data center demand for transmission speed at the access layer can be handled with 10G over standard LC fiber optic cable. But with the increasing demand for high bandwidth in data centers as they expand, the network core and convergence layer will require the migration for 40/100G transmission. To meet this demand, MTP […]

MTP Base-8 and Base-12: Correct Using Principles
In my previous post “MTP Links: Base-8 vs. Base-12 vs. Base-24”, I have done a comparison among Base-8 MTP, Base-12 MTP and Base-24 MTP. And from the post, we can conclude that Base-8 MTP link is the most future-proof option for the quickly-changing network requirements. But someone may ask “I have deployed Base-12 or Base-24 […]
Understanding Polarity in MPO System
MPO/MTP technology, which is of high density, flexibility and reliability with scalable, upgradeable properties, is one of the contributors that lead the migration to 40/100GbE. However, the network designers face another challenge which is how to assure the proper polarity of these array connections using multi-fiber MPO/MTP components from end-to-end. Maintain the correct polarity across […]
What are MPO and MTP connectors?
MPO cable and MTP cable are offered for various applications for all networking and device needs like 100 Gig modules. They use a high-density multi-fiber connector (MPO connector and MTP connector) system built around precision molded MT ferrule. So what are MPO and MTP connectors? What is an MT ferrule? MT stands for Mechanical Transfer. The MT Ferrule is a […]
