MPO Connector Components & Assemblies | High-Density Network Solutions

The MPO (Multi-Fiber Push-On) Connector system is the global standard for high-density backbone cabling and data center connectivity. Engineered to support anywhere from 8 to 24 fibers in a single interface, these connectors are essential for high-bandwidth applications such as 40G/100G/400G Ethernet.

Our MPO components are manufactured with ultra-precision MT ferrules to ensure stable alignment across all fiber channels, providing the reliability required for hyper-scale cloud environments and high-traffic switching fabrics.

Description

🛠 Multi-Fiber Engineering & Material Design

MPO connectors utilize a unique push-pull latching mechanism and specialized internal components to manage high fiber counts in a compact footprint.

Modular Component Precision

Every kit includes a precision-molded MT Ferrule, spring, pin holder, and high-tension housing to ensure consistent physical contact across every fiber core.

Color-Coded Identification

Housings are available in industry-standard colors (Aqua, Magenta, Yellow, Lime Green) for immediate identification of fiber type (OM3, OM4, OM5, or OS2).

📊 Technical Performance Matrix

💡 High-Density FAQ

Q: What is the difference between MPO Male and Female connectors? A: MPO Male connectors feature two precision alignment pins, while Female connectors have two corresponding alignment holes. Proper mating requires one male and one female connector to ensure the fiber cores align perfectly.

Q: Why are there so many housing colors? A: Color coding follows international standards to prevent network mismatching:

  • Yellow: Single-mode (OS2)

  • Aqua: Multimode (OM3)

  • Magenta/Erika Violet: Multimode (OM4)

  • Lime Green: Multimode (OM5)

Q: Do you offer different boot sizes for MPO cables? A: Yes. We provide specialized boots for various cable diameters, including standard round cables (2.0mm/3.0mm) and flat ribbon cables, ensuring proper strain relief for different backbone architectures.

Q: How do I manage polarity with MPO connectors? A: Polarity is managed through the “Key” orientation on the connector housing. We offer components for Method A (Key-up to Key-down), Method B (Key-up to Key-up), and Method C (Pair flipped) configurations.
