72F（9x8F） MPO-MPO SM Trunk cable
The 72-core MPO trunk cable is a high-efficiency multi-fiber trunk cabling product with modular integrated structure, matching six 12-fiber MPO connectors for full fiber channel utilization. It adopts premium graded optical fibers and reinforced anti-pressure outer sheath, resisting daily installation abrasion and bending damage. With strict low-loss optical performance indicators and high mating durability, it delivers stable transmission quality. Suitable for medium-to-large data center distribution layer interconnection, commercial building integrated cabling and communication equipment link convergence. It balances density and flexibility, effectively saving cabling space and reducing construction time.

Pre-terminated MPO Technology-Polarity （12C MT Ferrule）
Polarity defines the directional correspondence between the transmit (Tx) port and receive (Rx) port of optical fiber links. It standardizes the signal transmission direction of fiber connections and guarantees accurate and effective end-to-end signal interconnection in optical cabling systems.

Custom Pulling Eye.
The pulling eye safeguards MPO trunk connectors throughout cable laying and dismantling processes, especially in confined or inaccessible installation areas, by completely shielding the fiber breakout section and diverting tensile stress from the cable assembly to the protective sleeve.
