MPO/MTP® connectors are used as multi-fiber interfaces for V-grooves fiber arrays, 2D matrix fiber arrays, fiber bundles and other custom optical assemblies.
Available configurations include Standard and Elite grades, up to 12 or 16 fibers per row, SM, MM or PM fiber, different cable diameters and connector lengths, and color coding. Assemblies can be supplied with low insertion loss, high return loss and optional fiber length matching <100 µm.
Advantages
- Space saving in the patch panel
- Compatible with PM, SM and MM optical fibers
- Typically 8, 12, 16, 32 or 24 fibers in a connector
- Patchcord design according to customer specifications
- Suitable connector interface for multi-fiber assemblies
- Available variant with relative optical length difference up to 100 micrometers
Applications
- V-groove fiber arrays
- Matrix 2D fiiber array
- Fiber bundles
- Optical transceivers and interconnects
- Telecom and data communication systems
- Custom photonic and industrial assemblies
