A Closer Look at Plug and Play MTP/MPO Assemblies

With today’s 40 and 100 Gig fiber applications using the MTP/MPO interface, overall performance is critical. Unfortunately, not all MTP/MPO assemblies are created equal, and selecting lower-cost versions from unproven sources can compromise performance.

• Samples tested from 4 different assembly houses and Siemon
• Tested for end face geometry, visual inspection, cleanliness and transmission performance
• Astounding results show cheaper assemblies are not worth the risk
