MPO Trunk patch Cords

MPO patch cord (Multi-fiber Push-On Patch Cord) is a multi-fiber connection cable that uses MPO/MTP connectors and is designed for high-density, high-speed fiber networks. Its core advantage is that it integrates multiple optical fibers (such as 12-core, 24-core, and 48-core) through a single patch cord, greatly simplifying wiring complexity and improving transmission efficiency. It is a core component in data centers, 5G networks, and cloud computing scenarios.

Product Detail

MPO patch cord (Multi-fiber Push-On Patch Cord) is a multi-fiber connection cable that uses MPO/MTP connectors and is designed for high-density, high-speed fiber networks.

MPO patch cord advantages

Save space and cost

A single patch cord replaces multiple single-core patch cords, reducing cable clutter and reducing pipe/cabinet occupancy costs.

Quick deployment

The pre-terminated design is plug-and-play, no on-site welding is required, and the project cycle is shortened.

Future compatibility

Supports smooth upgrade to higher bandwidth (such as 400G→800G) to protect investment.

High reliability

Fully automated grinding process, 100% interferometer detection of the end face, and insertion loss stability is better than ±0.1dB.

Features of MPO patch cord

High-density integration

A single patch cord integrates 12/24/48 cores of optical fiber, saving 70% space compared to traditional LC patch cords, and is suitable for high-density equipment such as racks and switches.

Typical interface: MPO (universal) or MTP (high-precision upgraded version, longer plug-in life).

High-speed transmission

Supports 40G/100G/400G/800G networks, multimode fiber (OM3/OM4/OM5) short-distance transmission (≤150m), single-mode fiber (OS2) long-distance transmission (≥10km).

Bandwidth utilization is improved through parallel optical technology or wavelength division multiplexing (WDM).

Pre-terminated design

Factory prefabricated terminations (such as MPO to LC branch patch cords) reduce on-site splicing and increase deployment efficiency by more than 50%.

Supports flexible configuration of polarity (Type A/B/C) to adapt to different network architecture requirements.

Application scenarios

Data center

40G/100G network: MPO-24 core jumper branches into 6×LC duplex to connect switches and servers. 400G deployment: MPO-16 core supports 4×100G channels (such as QSFP-DD optical modules).

5G base station and telecommunications network

Single-mode MPO jumpers are used for long-distance interconnection between base stations, and multi-mode jumpers support high-density connections in the computer room.

Enterprise core network

The MPO pre-terminated system simplifies the wiring of the computer room, reducing labor costs and fault points.

Supercomputing center and AI cluster

OM5 MPO jumpers support SWDM (short wave wavelength division multiplexing), single-fiber transmission of multi-wavelength signals, and improve bandwidth utilization.
