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

This 144 Fibers (Base-12) MTP® Elite Female trunk assembly is built for backbone cabling between racks, rows and distribution frames. OS2 9/125μm fiber, Plenum (OFNP) jacket and factory installed pulling protection make it a one-pull replacement for hours of field termination work.
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
Typical uses include backbone links between the main distribution area and equipment rows, vertical risers between floors, and inter-cabinet trunks in large data halls. 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. Pre-termination cuts installation time dramatically compared with field splicing.
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.
Built to Your Spec
We have manufactured fiber optic assemblies since 1995. MPO and MTP cabling is one of our core lines: fiber counts from 8 to 144, single mode and multimode, UPC and APC polish, trunk, jumper, harness and breakout formats. Send your drawing and we turn it into a ready to install assembly.
Quality and Testing
Our test routine covers insertion loss, return loss and ferrule end face inspection on every assembly. Because testing is done in-house, custom variants receive exactly the same verification as standard models.
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.
