16F MTP-MTP Trunk cable
This 16-fiber MTP-MTP trunk cable is a high-density backbone cabling solution for hyperscale data centers. It integrates standard single-mode OS2 or multimode OM3/OM4/OM5 fiber with precision polished MTP UPC connectors, supporting massive parallel optical interconnections.
Compact 16-fiber MTP interface greatly reduces rack space occupation and simplifies cable management. Bend-insensitive fiber core avoids extra attenuation during complex routing. LSZH flame-retardant jacket meets CPR fire safety standards, with distinct color coding for quick fiber type identification.
All of FDC’s MTP® Connectors are from USconec. At the same time，FDC‘s MTP® cable are available with fiber brands of Corning,YOFC,Fiberhome, Jfiber,Fiberhome,ZTT,etc. LSZH,OFNP,OFNR Jacket material. Available in Type A/B/C polarity and male/female pin configurations. Each trunk undergoes full insertion loss & return loss testing. Ideal for cross-rack interconnections, ODF main distribution links and spine-leaf network backbone supporting 40G to 1.6T high-speed transceivers.
