MTP-12 to MTP-12 APC Trunk Cable, Female, 144 Fibers, OS2, Type B

Pre-terminated MTP® Elite Female backbone trunk with 144 Fibers (Base-12) on OS2 9/125μm fiber. Instead of splicing dozens of connectors on site, your installers pull one cable, mount the panels and plug in.
Standard lengths are 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 40m (131ft). Because we are the manufacturer, any other length between or beyond these steps can be produced on request, with your choice of jacket color, labeling and packaging.

Applications
This trunk is designed for permanent backbone positions: between patch panels, from the core to aggregation rows, or between buildings on a campus. The 144 Fibers (Base-12) construction concentrates the equivalent of many duplex jumpers into a single assembly, which is exactly what high density spine and leaf cabling needs. Every breakout leg is numbered, which simplifies documentation and troubleshooting.
Trunk Construction and Polarity
The trunk uses a double jacket design: a rugged outer sheath protects the whole bundle, while each breakout leg keeps its own jacket and numbering. Base-8 and Base-12 constructions are available depending on the fiber count. Polarity follows the Type shown in the table, and pulling eyes or mesh grips can be fitted for installation.
Ordering Information
Ordering is simple: send us 144FMTPSMF and your required lengths and quantities, and we return a factory quote the same working day. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Small trial orders are welcome before you commit to a full project rollout.
How We Pack
Every cable is protected with dust caps and individual packaging before being boxed for shipment. Batch test reports and your own part number labels can be included in each bag.
Quality and Testing
Every MPO/MTP assembly leaving our factory is 100% tested for insertion loss and return loss, with end face geometry checks on the multi-fiber ferrules. Controlled polishing keeps the loss budget stable across the whole batch, which matters when several mated pairs sit in one link.
Logistics
We dispatch worldwide by international courier, with air and sea freight options for bulk orders. Goods can be sent collect on your courier account, and documentation for customs clearance is provided with every shipment.
