The latest MPO optical module classification summary, first we will introduce what is MPO optical module? MPO optical module refers to the optical module that interface uses MPO connector, which is usually used with MPO fiber patch cord. MPO connector can be divided into male head and female head.MPO interface of optical module is generally male head type, on the contrary, MPO fiber patch cord used to connect optical module is female head, The simple understanding is that the male and female are matched.

MPO is often used as high-speed transmission standard connector type, such as the IEEE 802.3bm standard for 40G/100G transmission, etc., which are commonly used in data center, network cabling active optical devices in the optical link interconnection communication base stations in wiring, wiring wiring in the residential areas, industrial machine room, commercial building room optical signal connection built-up wiring system, optical fiber communication system, cable television network, telecommunications network LAN (LANs), wide area network (WANs), FTTx. So what are the optical modules of MPO interface? Next, please follow the pace of ETU-LINK.

How to choose the right fiber patch cord for MPO optical module?

Connector type: MPO/MTP, branch connector: LC, SC, FC, ST (user selection)

Patch cord connector: female

Fiber type: single mode / multi mode

Number of cores: 8-core, 12-core, 24-core, etc.

Line sequence type: Type B (usually connected to the optical module using line sequence B)

The above is the main parameters of the fiber patch cord with the MPO optical module. Finally, the user can select the length of the customized patch cord according to their own needs.
