Standard & Armored MTP to LC Breakout Cable Assemblies
QSFP Breakout Cables (also known as MTP to LC breakout cables, harness cables, or fanout cables) feature a higher performing MPO connector than the industry standard, which was designed by US Conec. Each MTP® connector minimizes insertion loss, decreases equipment wear and tear, and ensures a physically secure connection. This enables each QSFP Breakout Cable to provide unmatched performance, particularly in mission-critical telecommunications and datacenter applications.
QSFP Breakout Cable Application Configurations:
QSFP Breakout Cables are often used to divide high-speed QSFP28, QSFP+ or a QSFP port on a network switch into many lower-speed SFP+ ports. A switch having 40G ports, for example, can be linked to 10G server ports. QSFP Breakout cables, for example, can be used for the following conversions:
For multimode applications:
For single-mode applications:
In addition, these MTP Breakout cables can be used to connect MPO/MTP-based LAN switches and servers to LC-based patch panels and infrastructure.
SteelPatch Armored MTP Cable Applications:
SteelPatch Armored MTP Breakout Cables are composed of military grade steel wich increases cable strength 7 times. The unique manufacturing method allows SteelPatch armored fiber cables to remain fully flexible and lightweight. SteelPatch Armored MTP or MTP Elite Breakout Cables are best deployed in hazardous environments including active construction sites and military bases.
When should you choose SteelPatch Armored Fiber Patch Cables?
SteelPatch Armored Fiber Patch Cables are ruggedized cables that are excellent for usage in data centers and network backbones, as they are engineered to provide more than five times the strength of standard fiber optic cables. They are also ideal for fiber-to-desktop connections, which need exceptional reliability; and they are perfect as highly dependable trunk cables between data center racks, raised floors, and runs between floors and other high-traffic areas.
