Description

StarTech MPOSMAPCAQCOUPLER MPO/MTP Fiber Coupler

Overview

The StarTech MPOSMAPCAQCOUPLER is a passive MPO/MTP fiber optic coupler designed to join two multimode OM3/OM4 fiber optic cables. This adapter extends the reach of existing multi-fiber backbone connections, ideal for data centers or high-density network environments where cable length is a constraint. Its compact form factor and straightforward plug-and-play operation simplify network infrastructure expansion. The aqua color coding helps identify it as compatible with OM3/OM4 fiber types.

Compatibility

This coupler is designed for use with MPO/MTP connectors found on multimode OM3 and OM4 fiber optic cables. It supports data rates up to 100Gbps, making it suitable for high-speed networking applications including 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE Ethernet standards. It adheres to the TIA-568.3-D standard for fiber optic cabling.

Installation Notes

Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F), this coupler can be deployed in a variety of environmental conditions. It requires no external power and offers a low insertion loss of 0.2dB, minimizing signal degradation. The straight connector style ensures a secure and stable connection when two MPO/MTP cables are plugged in.
