Features and Benefits
- Full 24-fiber continuity — all 24 fibers carried through; no fiber is dropped, and every fiber remains individually testable
- Two independent 12-fiber legs — each leg is a discrete single-row MT ferrule pair, allowing independent routing, independent mating, and independent verification
- Factory-controlled conversion — polarity reversal, gender change, or key re-orientation is performed at the factory under controlled termination conditions, not improvised in the field
- Repeatable, documented mapping — every unit ships with a per-fiber mapping record so the installed channel can be audited later
- Low insertion loss — one mating pair per leg; total of two mating interfaces, the minimum achievable for a conversion function
- Field-serviceable identification — distinct leg labeling and, where specified, distinct jacket colors or printed legends to prevent leg transposition in service
- Compatible with MPO and MTP® — MTP® is a brand of MPO connector and is mechanically intermateable; this cable mates with both
