What performance should i expect from MTP/MPO Connector
What performance should I expect from my MTP connection? The chart on our MT Ferrule product page, lists the maximum Insertion Loss (IL) and Return Loss (RL) you should expect for each ferrule grade. However, improper use or termination can degrade these values. MTP performance is primarily driven by three factors: 1. Selecting Quality Connector […]
Data center cabling, network migration
Anixter’s recently produced Data Center Network Migration video details the complexities in data center cabling topology and design, and asks the question, “Is your physical cabling infrastructure designed to withstand constant change?” Anixter asserts that the four best practices needed to achieve a high-performance, future-ready structured cabling solution for a data center include: creating network […]

What is the difference of MTP connectors and MPO connectors
The MPO connector is defined by IEC-61754-76, it is a multiple fiber core connector, “Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components – Fiber optic connector interfaces – Part 7: Type MPO connector family”; and TIA-604-5-D, ”Fiber Optic Connector Intermateability Standard, Type MPO”. The term MTP is a registered trademark of US Conec. This is the […]
Higher Data Center operational temperature affect fiber optic reliability
Big Data Analytics, The Cloud, Internet of Thing: The buzz words in the ICT (Information and Communications Technology) industry. All of which fuels the flourishing Data Centers market across the globe at an alarming rate. Cisco predicted that by 2018, more than three quarters (78%) of workloads will be processed by cloud data centers; 22 […]
Fast field terminate MPO connectors
Currently Data center required everywhere for big data. Many manufacturer all start to demonstrate the tools and procedures by which installation technicians can field-terminate MPO-style fiber connectors. MPO fusion-spliced, field-terminated connectors feature just six components. With a factory prepolished ferrule, their field-termination process eliminates polishing, adhesives and crimping in the field, minimizing the potential for […]
