Product Description

1. Product Overview

12F MPO-MPO patch cord is a multi-fiber optical cable assembly with MPO connectors on both ends, used for permanent interconnection between MPO modules. It supports 10/40/100Gbps data center transmission, suitable for high-density backbone cabling, cassette interconnection, panel connection and ruggedized MPO fan-out deployment. It allows flexible connector style replacement on patch panels without modifying trunk cables.

2. Key Features

• Low insertion loss and high return loss

• MT-based multi-fiber connector, compatible with 4/8/12/24 fiber terminations

• Cost-effective for mass fiber termination

• Optimized for standard and low-loss single-mode and multi-mode applications

• Optional round/oval/bare ribbon cable structures

• Color-coded housings for fiber type, polish type and grade identification

• Excellent mating repeatability and interchangeability
