MPO Cables feature MPO (Multi-Fiber Push On) connectors on one or both ends. MPO is a multi-fiber connector that features 8, 12, or 24 fibers in a single ferrule, enabling high-density implementation of newer high-speed LAN and data center applications. Using MPO fiber optic cable assemblies provide over 12 times the fiber density in the same footprint as the LC or SC cables. These high-density MPO patch cords offer significant space savings, while also simplifying network installations.

With the increase in data transfer speed requirements due to AI, Cloud Computing and HD video streaming technologies, the ability to transfer data as efficiently as possible remains the driving force in today’s communication age. The backbone of most modern digital information systems is increasingly powered by fiber optic networks, with a growing focus on the MPO fiber connector. The MPO connector was designed to easily interconnect multiple fiber strands and transfer an ever increasing amount of data.
