MPO vs MTP Cable – What’s the Difference?
While MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) and MTP (Mechanical Transfer Pull-off) cables are both used for high-speed fiber optic networks, they are distinct in several key ways. MTP cables are a premium version of MPO cables, offering higher performance with a more robust construction. Key differences include the MTP's improved mating durability and optimized performance at higher data rates.
MPO/MTP connectors are essential for ensuring fast, efficient fiber connectivity, especially in large data centers. Whether it’s for 40G, 100G, or even 400G network speeds, our MTP/MPO connectors provide the reliability and performance you need.
MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) stands for Multi-fiber Push-On. It is a high-density fiber optic connector used to connect multiple fibers in a single plug. MPO connectors are typically used with multimode or single-mode fibers in high-capacity networking and are designed to accommodate up to 12 or 24 fibers in a single connector.
MTP (Mechanical Transfer Push-On) is a specific type of MPO connector manufactured by US Conec. While MPO refers to the general category of multi-fiber connectors, MTP is a high-performance version of the MPO connector.
Differences Between MPO and MTP:
Performance: MTP connectors are typically considered higher quality than standard MPO connectors due to more precise manufacturing and better alignment of the fibers. MTP connectors have better durability and performance in high-density environments.
Compatibility: MTP connectors are backward-compatible with MPO connectors, but not all MPO connectors are designed to meet the performance standards of MTP connectors.
Fiber Count: Both MPO and MTP connectors can support multiple fibers, but MTP connectors can support more fibers in some cases (e.g., 72 fibers versus 24 fibers for typical MPO).
Mechanical Design: MTP connectors have a more robust and reliable mechanical design, which results in better alignment and reduced insertion loss compared to standard MPO connectors.
Features & Benefits of MPO/MTP Connectors
High Density: MPO/MTP connectors support up to 24 fibers in a single connection, allowing for efficient use of space in high-density environments.
Fast Installation: The push-pull design ensures easy and quick installation, reducing setup time in the data center.
Enhanced Durability: MTP connectors feature a precision-engineered construction for long-lasting performance, even in demanding conditions.
Optimized for 40G/100G Networks: Our MPO/MTP connectors are designed to support the latest high-speed network protocols, ensuring your data center remains future-proof.
Reduced Interference: With the ability to support multiple fibers in a single cable, MPO/MTP connectors reduce the need for additional cables, reducing signal loss and interference.
Applications
Our MPO/MTP connectors are designed to meet the needs of modern data centers and enterprise networks. The versatility of these connectors allows them to be used in a variety of applications, including:
Data Centers: Optimize your network’s speed and density, ensuring faster data transfer and more efficient use of space.
Telecommunications: Support high-bandwidth applications with low latency and superior data integrity.
