ACT Fanout-cassette 12 vezels MTP®-MPO Low Loss OS2

The ACT Fanout cassette 12 fibers MTP®-MPO Low Loss OS2 is a compact, metal-bodied solution for high-density fiber management in data center and enterprise networks. Designed for OS2 single-mode fiber applications, the cassette houses twelve fibers terminated with MTP®/MPO connectors and uses MTP®US CONEC technology for low insertion loss. With a shallow depth of 110 mm and available in black and blue, it supports efficient rack and panel installations while maintaining stable optical performance for high-speed links.

Advantages

The cassette combines a durable metal construction with low-loss MTP®/MPO terminations to ensure consistent optical quality and long service life. Its compact form factor saves rack space and simplifies cable routing. Using standardized MTP®US CONEC interfaces reduces connection variability and improves repeatability during mating cycles. The product is suitable for use in tightly packed patching environments where low insertion loss and reliable fiber alignment are required.

How to use

Install the cassette into a compatible cassette slot or adapter panel following the panel manufacturer’s mounting instructions. Route the incoming multi-fiber trunk to the cassette rear and secure the cable according to standard strain-relief practices. Connect equipment or patch cords to the MTP®/MPO ports on the cassette front; when using fanout pigtails, terminate and protect individual fiber ends as required. Verify optical continuity and insertion loss after installation using appropriate test equipment. Regularly inspect ferrules and connector endfaces and clean them according to established fiber-optic cleaning procedures to maintain performance.

Recommendations

Use compatible MTP®/MPO patch cords and follow manufacturer guidelines for polarity and keying to ensure correct channel mapping. Minimize connector mating cycles and keep protective caps in place when ports are not in use. Perform loss testing after installation and during maintenance to detect any degradation and ensure adherence to network performance requirements.
