MTP Elite Female-Female Patch Cord | Base-12 | Multi-Mode G651.OM3

This MTP® Elite OM3 Patch Cord is equipped with Base-12 female MTP connectors on both ends and contains 12 multimode fibers with a 50μm core and 125μm cladding. Designed for short-range, high-bandwidth transmissions, it’s enclosed in a durable 3.0mm jacket and is ideal for structured cabling in high-density environments.

The Elite MTP® connector is a premium MPO variant, engineered for improved alignment, lower insertion loss, and higher durability. Female connectors include alignment slots and are made to connect with male MTPs that feature guide pins.

This configuration is well-suited for parallel optics applications, such as 40G/100G Ethernet or backbone connectivity in data centers.
