Before produce, it is necessary to confirm whether MPO connector is male or female.
Female, without guide PINS Male, with guide PINS
How to confirm the MPO connector what you need is male or female?
Type1: Connection between MPO and MPO Connection between two MPO connectors, which must be one MPO connector is Female and another one must be Male. | ![]() |
![]() | Type2: Connection between MPO and optical module You know, All optical modules are self-contained with Guide PIN, it means male MPO connector inside, so when connection between MPO cable and optical module, the MPO connector on cable must be the female connector. |
How to choose the polarity about MPO to MPO pre-terminated cable?
According to ANSI-TIA-568-C.3-2008 specifications, there are three types about polarity: type-A, type-B and type-C, show as the figure.
How to choose the ferrule channels about 8 fibers MPO cable patch cord?
The 8 fiber cable is generally produced by 12 channels MT ferrule. So there are four channels of MT ferrule are unused, the location of the fiber and MT ferrule channels must be confirmed. Generally speaking, Type 2 is used for QSFP-40G-SR4 optic modules.
How to realize high density MPO cabling system?
We produce high quality MPO cable which is widely used in high density cabling systems. In addition to MPO Cable, we also provide MPO Cassette and 19′ rack in line with customer needs, for complete the MPO cabling solution.
How does the MPO cable patchcord connect to the switch in 40G system?
The MPO cable patch-cord is directly connected to the QSFP-40G-SR4 optic module. Type-B and Female MPO connector is required. The optic module is connected to the switches directly. Show as the figure.
Packing
NOTE: The following images are for reference only in their packaging style. If the MPO cable is long and big, which will be packing with plastic wrap.
