MPO cable (Multi-fiber Push On) is a high-density multi-fiber connector cable that can connect multiple optical fibers in a small space. MPO connectors were originally designed for fiber optic cabling in the telecommunications industry, but are now also widely used in data centers, computer networks, and other occasions that require a large number of fiber optic connections.
Features of MPO cables include:
High density: MPO cables can accommodate up to 12 to 144 optical fibers in a small size, which greatly saves space and simplifies the deployment of large-scale fiber networks.
Easy to install: MPO connectors are designed to be push-in, which can be quickly connected or disconnected, and can be installed without tools or with only simple tools.
Modular design: MPO systems usually adopt modular design, making network expansion and adjustment more flexible.
Reusable: MPO connectors can be connected and disconnected multiple times without performance degradation, which makes MPO cables very useful during testing and maintenance.
Pre-terminated options: MPO cables can be pre-terminated to specific types of fiber optic connectors, such as LC, SC, etc., to accommodate different network equipment interfaces.
There are two basic types of MPO cables: Patch Cords and Trunk Cables. Patch cords are used to connect equipment to other parts of the network, while trunk cables are used to provide direct connections of a large number of optical fibers between different racks or equipment in the data center.
When using MPO cables, you need to pay attention to factors such as the type of fiber core (single mode or multimode), the number of cores, the type of connector, the length of the cable, and whether shielding is required. In addition, proper installation and maintenance are also critical to ensure the optimal performance of the MPO system. (Source: Dongguan HX Fiber Technology Co., Ltd)
