MTP® Cassettes

MTP brand cassettes come in a variety of connector styles and modes. From Multimode to Singlemode, from SC to LC, MTP brand solutions can be your solution to save space, time, and energy.

The cassette itself is comprised of four parts:
  • MTP brand adaptor(s) in back

  • MTP brand connectors to SC/LC fan out assembly inside the cassette

  • SC, ST, MTRJ (including keyed MTRJ), and LC (including keyed LCs) adaptors in the front

  • The cassette module body can be configured to multiple manufacturers for and fit factor.

By plugging an MTP brand cable into the back, you're lighting up 12 or 24 (with quad LC) connections. For the 24-fiber application, you can have either one 24-fiber MTP brand cable or two 12-fiber MTP brand cables (plugging into two ports).

The cassette can be snapped into any standard fiber optic patch panel including both rack mount and wall mount. All it takes is one port! The RAC-1X can hold three of these cassettes which could potentially give you 72 active LC connections using only three (or six) MTP brand cables. Normally, you would have a patch panel that has straight-through adapter panels and would need dozens of duplex patch cords plugging into the back of them. Clean up the clutter and increase your possibilities using MTP brand cassettes.
