MTP ® / MPO Fiber Optic Cable Assembly
The MTP ®/ MPO to MTP ®/ MPO fiber optic cable assembly is a multi-fiber alternative to the traditional 12-fiber distribution and breakout cables.
The MTP ®/ MPO is a connector manufactured specifically for a multi-fiber ribbon cable. The Singlemode fiber optic connectors have an angled ferrule allowing for minimal back reflection while the multimode connector ferrule is commonly flat. The ribbon cable is flat and appropriately named due to its flat ribbon like structure which houses 12 fibers side by side in a jacket 3/16 of an inch or 5mm wide.

It is a cost effective alternative to a 12-fiber distribution or breakout cable.
There is a reduced cost in connectors as one MTP ®/MPO connector replaces 12 standard connectors.
Saves labour time because you mate 12 fibers of the MTP ®/MPO at the same time.
The 12-fiber MTP ®/MPO to MTP ®/MPO Ribbon Cable Assemblies are an effective way of saving conduit space due to their flat ribbon like structure allowing for a higher density of cables to occupy a particular conduit in installation.
