Customized MMC-16 Trunk Cable, 16-384 Fibers, OS2

The customized MMC-16 trunk is an OS2 backbone assembly built around MMC connectors based on sixteen-fiber sub-units. Fiber capacity can scale from 16 to 384 fibers, with cable outside diameter from 4.0 to 17.5mm depending on the selected construction. G.657.A1 glass, APC polish and an OFNP jacket provide the foundation for project-specific single-mode distribution.

Product Highlights

• MMC to MMC, 16-384 Fibers
• OS2 9/125µm, G.657.A1
• MMC insertion loss ≤0.35dB, return loss ≥60dB
• Trunk/ Extender Polarity wiring scheme
• 4.0-17.5mm Plenum (OFNP) cable
• Length and fiber count manufactured to the project requirement

A trunk is not simply a longer jumper. As fiber count increases, sub-unit arrangement, cable diameter, pulling strength and breakout protection become part of the design. This MMC-16 family supports trunk or extender polarity and 200-400N long-term tensile ratings, with 660-1320N short-term ratings across the construction range. The exact values applicable to an order should be confirmed on its production drawing.

Typical uses include links between optical distribution frames, equipment rows and high-density MMC panels. Pre-termination allows many fibers to be installed in one pull and tested before arrival. The panel schedule should identify every sub-unit, connector gender and polarity transition so the trunk lands correctly. High fiber counts also require adequate rear cable management and static bend space.

There is no assumed stock length for this customized product. Specify the route length in meters or feet, total fiber count, MMC connector gender, polarity, breakout lengths, jacket requirements and labeling. Pulling eyes or other installation protection can be discussed where the pathway requires them. Length, diameter and tensile construction are confirmed together rather than selected independently.

Use XXMMCSMF as the MMC-16 trunk family reference and attach a fiber schedule or drawing. A useful enquiry includes length, fiber count, sub-unit mapping, connector gender, polarity and installation conditions, allowing the factory to quote the correct engineered assembly.
