When talking about 40G cabling, MPO cable is the most common choice for data center managers to use. Today, I’d like to talk about three types of MTP cabling options for 40G parallel connectivity. The first type is to deploy MPO 12 cable and ignore the unused four fibers. And the other two types are […]

Introduction to MPO Connector
Introduced several years ago, MPO connectors are now widely used around the world. They are designed to reduce the amount of time required for fusion splicing individual connectors. Combining lots of fibers in one connector, the MPO connector not only greatly reduces the time of connecting fibers, but also saves a lot of space. This […]
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 […]
