Optical FiberMPO System

The MPO Plug ‘n’ Play system is the perfect solution for today’s optical fiber installations, designed to enable a fiber network to be installed and commissioned in the shortest possible time. An MPO installation does not require specialist engineers or special tools as each component of the FiberFab MPO system is packed with a certificate showing it’s performance at the time of manufacture. This enables the installer to be sure the system will function from the moment the final part of the system is connected. The MPO system allows for the communication cabinets to be fully assembled in the installers own clean workshops allowing for the simple connection to the installed MPO cable assembly, when the system is commissioned.

MPOMPOMPO

The high density MPO connector allows simple plug ‘n’ play termination of the fiber backbone. Once installed the backbone needs to have the correct interface to suit the needs of the network hardware. Using the MPO connector on pre-terminated fiber solutions allows you to prepare the distribution units in the comfort of your own workshop. This can be taken a step further by having the distribution cabinets built in a clean facility and only taken to site when the installation is due to go live. MPO pre-termination saves time and reduces the possibility of damage to the fragile optical tails and reduces the risk of dirt ingress into fiber couplers.

The MPO is the answer to tomorrows challenges with pre-terminated fiber cable, but available from FiberFab today.

Specifications:

1 - The System Design
The system needs to designed with consideration to the numbers of fibers required, and the type of connectors used on the active equipment. Where SC connectors are required the maximum number of connections using the modular patch panel is 36, but with LC and MT-RJ connectors the same panel can support up to 72 fibers. Where lower patch panel density is acceptable the standard sliding tray patch panel can be used.

2 - The Site Survey
The installer is required to accurately measure the route in which the MPO assembly will be installed, allowing an extra 10% for cable slack. Also 3 metres at each end should be allowed for termination and management of the cables within the communication cabinet.

3 - The Installation
The MPO assembly is laid into position and loosely secured to the cable tray or supports with no bends smaller than 5cm radius. When pulling any optical fiber assembly into a building, the maximum pulling force MUST be adhered to, excess force will damage the cable, and the fibers within. Carefully loop any spare cable under or within the communications cabinet allowing for a stress free run to the rear of the patch panel. Dust is the enemy of all optical fiber systems, and so the dust caps MUST be left on the MPO assemblies until final connection is required. When the system is fully installed and ready for commissioning, remove the dust caps and immediately connect to the MPO fan-out or Module.
