application
Connect multiple MPO-based infrastructure components to LC-based components, such as LAN switches, servers, patch panels, and zone
distribution areas. Eight fiber, 4-to-1 conversion harnesses connect four 10G LCs to a single 40G MPO. 12-fiber breakout harnesses connect
(6) LCs to (1) MPO using traditional fanout wiring.
technical information
PanMPO™ and MPO Round Harness Cable Assemblies are pre-terminated 8 or 12-fiber
cable assemblies. The unique design of the PanMPO™ Connector allows for rapid gender
and polarity change in the field and enables a seamless, standards-compliant migration
from duplex based applications (e.g. 10G Ethernet) to parallel optics based applications
(e.g. 40/100G Ethernet). LC push-pull connectors reduce cable density by 40% and allow
easy removal in high density installation. All cable assemblies are factory terminated and
tested to deliver verified optical performance and reliability for improved network integrity.
