MTP-12 to MTP-12 APC Trunk Cable, MaleMTP-12 to MTP-12 APC Trunk Cable, Male, 48 Fibers, OS2, Type B
High fiber count MTP® Elite Male trunk cable with 48 Fibers (Base-12), OS2 9/125μm and Plenum (OFNP) jacket. The double jacket construction protects the breakout legs during installation, and every leg is labeled and tested before the cable leaves our factory.
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 48 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
To order, quote 48FMTPSMF together with the length and quantity you need. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Private labeling, custom packaging and project specific documentation are all handled in-house.
Logistics
Standard configurations normally ship within a few working days by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS. For project quantities we arrange air or sea freight, and we can ship on your own courier account or deliver to your appointed forwarder.
How We Pack
Each assembly is coiled, capped and sealed in an individual bag, then packed into foam lined export cartons. Test reports can be attached per unit or per batch, and carton marks follow your shipping instructions.
Quality and Testing
We do not ship untested product. Each unit is measured on calibrated equipment for optical performance and visually inspected for end face quality before packing. Batch traceability is maintained so any field issue can be tracked back to production.
