MTP cable assemblies or harnesses feature higher-performing MPO connectors – known as the MTP® connector – which is made by US Conec®, a company based in Hickory, NC. This improved optical connector reduces the amount of insertion loss when mating with fiber optic networking equipment, which in turn enables high-density implementation of modern high-speed LAN and data center applications. MTP patch cables provide over 12 times the fiber density in the same footprint as the LC or SC cables.
MTP Elite Fiber Optic Cables feature a high-performance MTP connector, which significantly reduces signal loss even further from standard MTP connectors. Due to minimal insertion loss, MTP Elite Fiber Optic Cables are ideal for 40G and 100G fiber networks, allowing network architects to create an efficient solution for additional devices without compromising performance.
All 8, 12 and 24 fiber MTP and MTP Elite™ cables feature our unique and exclusive FiberShield design, which uses three times the amount of PVC jacket and DuPont Kevlar to shield the cables’ sensitive optical fibers, resulting in a flexible yet sturdy 4.5mm cable that is five times stronger than regular 3.0mm cable.
