Zion Code and Description
Zion Code: ZCM2146HXA1
Zion Description: 24F MTP OM3 Fiber Optic Loopback Module /Cable
The MTP loopback contains fiber optic cable with both ends terminated in an MTP connector, creating a looped signal path within the same connector. This enables testing of device launch capacity and receiving sensitivity, particularly in 40/100G network communications. By returning signals, it helps locate various potential issues and provides effective testing and evaluation of individual components or interfaces on fiber optic networks.
Available in various configurations including 8-core, 12-core, and 24-core MTP connectors with different fiber configurations to accommodate various test port requirements.
Application Capabilities
- 8F MTP Fiber Loopback Module: Verification and testing of transceivers with MTP interface - 40GBASE-SR4/CSR4 QSFP+ devices
- 12F MTP Fiber Loopback Module: Verification and testing of transceivers with MTP interface - 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ or 100GBASE-SR4 devices
- 24F MTP Fiber Loopback Module: Verification and testing of transceivers with MTP interface - 100GBASE-SR10 CXP/CFP devices
MTP Loopback modules provide looped signals to test transmit and receiving functions, widely used within testing environments especially for parallel optics 40G and 100G networks. They link Transceivers (TX) and Receivers (RX) positions of MTP transceiver interfaces and facilitate insertion loss testing of optical network segments.

Fiber Optic Loopback Testing
A loopback test sends a signal from a communication device and loops it back to determine proper functionality or troubleshoot defective network nodes. Optical loopbacks verify the operational reliability of devices by routing the signal emitted from the transmit (Tx) end back to the receive (Rx) end of the same component.
Practical Applications
Fiber optic loopback testing is commonly used for checking fiber optic transceivers. Since transceivers have separate ports for receiving and transmitting signals, loopback testing provides a convenient method for transceiver maintenance. The testing process compares transmitted patterns with received patterns to ensure they are identical and error-free.
- Collocated with 40G or 100G MPO/MTP interface transceivers
- Testing transmission capability and receiver sensitivity of fiber optic network equipment
