MPO connectors are able to provide up to 24 or more fibers in a single connector pushing up to and beyond 100Gbps data transmission. MTP® is a registered trademark of US Conec, marketed as a “high performance MPO connector when compared to generic MPO connectors.” The terms MTP and MPO are often used interchangeably and MTP is considered a generalized trademark. MTP and MPO are available with Standard or Elite® / Low Loss options.

MTP Male Female MPOs are classified by the guide pins on the end of the connector and require 1 male and 1 female to mate properly. MPO connectors use a “barrel sleeve” adapter that simply holds one male and one female MPO “plug” together. The male guide pins fit into the female holes to ensure precise fiber alignment. It is never advised to mate two female connectors two male connectors due to both insertion loss and pin damage respectively. The standard for cables is female to female. This changes, however, when you need to extend a cable or connect two cables. You will then need a male to female cable plus adapter.

We can build these to your custom specifications, including using a different brand of fiber, different type of jacket, or even customer-supplied cable.

Please keep in mind that MPO cables work best with loose fibers, so tight-buffered fibers may not be suitable for this.
