Male connectors have two guide pins and female connectors do not. MPO/MTP connectors have male and female design (as showed in the picture on the left). Some basic aspects should be considered during the selection of a MPO/MTP connector are as following:įirst is pin option. Various types of MPO/MTP connectors are being provided.

The picture below shows the components of a MPO connector. The structure of MPO/MTP connector is a little complicated.

The MTP connector is offered with four standard variations of strain relief boots to meet a wide array of applications.

The MTP connector spring design maximizes ribbon clearance for twelve fiber and multifiber ribbon applications to prevent fiber damage.

The MTP connector has a metal pin clamp with features for centering the push spring.

The MTP connector uses tightly held tolerance stainless steel guide pin tips with an elliptical shape.

The MTP connector offers ferrule float to improve mechanical performance.

The MTP connector housing is removable.

Some main improvements of MTP connector are as following: MTP connector is a high performance MPO connector designated for better mechanical and optical performance and is in complete compliance with all MPO connector standards. MTP stands for “Multi-fiber Termination Push-on” connector and it is designed by USConec and built around the MT ferrule. The fibers for sending and receiving are colorcoded, red and green, respectively.

MPO connectors are based on MT ferrule (showed in the picture on the right) which can provide quick and reliable high performance interconnections up to 4, 12, 24 or more and are usually used with ribbon fiber cables. The following picture shows diagram of MPO connectors, 12-fold (left) and 24-fold (right). The MPO connector is a multi-fiber connector which is most commonly defined by two documents: IEC-61754-7 (the commonly sited standard for MPO connectors internationally) and EIA/TIA-604-5 (also known as FOCIS 5, is the most common standard sited for in the US). MPO is short for the industry acronym-”multi-fiber push on”.
