SN™ MT Connector
Innovative multi-fibre connector that drastically minimises space requirements
- The SN™ MT is a next-generation multi-fibre connector that can carry up to 32 fibres in a double-row ferrule.
- It is designed to fit into a regular SN™ connector footprint, making it easy to install and use.
- Compared to the MPO-16F, it achieves a connector density improvement of 5.4x and 2.6x compared to the MPO-32F.
- The SN™ MT provides an ideal solution for applications that require high-density connectivity.
