Zion Code: ZCM2122HIA1X
Description: MTP Female To MTP Female SM 3.0mm LSZH 12 Fibers MTP Patch Cord Custom Meters
Product Overview
The MTP connector is a multi-fiber push-on connector type designed for high-density fiber optic applications. This pre-connection system is primarily used in data centers, fiber-to-the-building deployments, and internal connections within optical transceiver equipment supporting 40G, 100G, and QSFP+ technologies.
MTP connectors are classified according to IEC 61754-7 standards by fiber count, gender (male/female), and polarity (PC or APC). Our MTP-MTP 3.0mm LSZH Fiber Patch Cord features MTP connectors on both ends and is available in various fiber counts including 12, 24, 48, 60, 72, 96, and 144 fibers.
Key Applications
Specifically designed for 40G QSFP+ SR4, 40G QSFP+ CSR4, and 100G QSFP28 SR4 optics direct connections in high-density data center environments.

MTP Polarity Connection Methods
Three standardized connection methods ensure proper MTP/MTP polarity for optimal signal transmission.
Polarity A Connection
Key up, key down design maintains fiber position alignment (position 1 to position 1). Requires A-B duplex patch cables on one end and A-A duplex patch cables on the other end.
Polarity B Connection
Key up, key up design with polarity flip (position 1 to position 12). Requires A-B duplex patch cables on both ends.
Polarity C Connection
Key up, key down design with internal fiber cross (position 1 to position 2). Requires A-B duplex patch cables on both ends.
Note: Polarity type is specified in the product naming rules - Polarity A, Polarity B, or Polarity C.
