MPO Fiber Optic Connector Adapters Compact Design Multifiber For Telecommunication Networks​

The singlemode and multimode MTP/MPO products available are multifiber connectors used in high-density backplane and Printed Circuit Board(PCB) applications in data and telecommunications systems. The MTP/MPO connector offers up to 12 times the density of standard connectors, providing significant space and cost savings.

MTP/MPO connectors utilize precision molded MT ferrules, with metal guide pins and precise housing dimensions to ensure fiber alignment when mating. The MTP can be mass terminated in combinations of 4,8 or 12 fiber ribbon cables. The MTP/MPO adapter comes standard in black.

Fiber optic adapter provides the connection between the fiber optic patch cord or pigtails. Fiber optic adapters (also called couplers) are designed to connect two fiber optic cables together. They come in versions to connect single fibers together (simplex), two fibers together (duplex), or sometimes four fibers together (quad).

Adapters are designed for multimode or singlemode cables. The singlemode adapters offer more precise alignment of the tips of the connectors (ferrules). It is ok to use singlemode adapters to connect multimode cables, but you should not use multimode adapters to connect singlemode cables. This can cause misalignment of the small singlemode fibers and loss of signal strength (attenuation).
