MPO Trunk Cables for Data Centers in Irving, TX
12-Fiber High-Density Trunk Cables in Single Mode OS2, Multimode OM3 and OM4
We supply professional-grade MPO trunk cables engineered for 40G and 100G data center environments. Available in OS2, OM3 and OM4 with custom lengths, stocked and ready to ship from Irving, TX.
High-Performance 12-Fiber MPO Trunk Cables
MPO (Multi-Fiber Push-On) trunk cables are a type of fiber optic trunk cable that combines 12 fibers into a single connector, making them the standard choice for high-density data center cabling. Our 12-fiber MPO trunk cables are built for 40G and 100G networks and cut installation time significantly compared to running individual duplex fiber. If you need to break out to individual LC ports, we also carry MPO fanout cables and breakout cables.
Each cable features female MPO connectors on both ends with Type B polarity configuration, making them ideal for direct equipment connections and structured cabling systems.
Every MPO trunk cable is factory tested for insertion loss, return loss, and polarity before it ships. We use 0.35dB connectors, Corning® fiber, and LSZH jackets, so you know exactly what you are getting.

Why Choose Our MPO Trunk Cables
Elite 0.35dB Low-Loss Connectors
Our connectors come in at 0.35dB, which is tighter than the 0.5-0.75dB you get from most suppliers. That difference matters in 40G and 100G links where you have less room for signal loss.
100% Factory Tested
Every cable tested for insertion loss, return loss, and polarity. Complete test reports included with documentation.
Type B Polarity Standard
Industry-standard key-up to key-down configuration. Works seamlessly with cassettes and equipment.
Premium Components
Corning® ClearCurve® or SMF-28® fiber. High-precision ceramic ferrules. Professional LSZH jackets.
80% Faster Installation
One 12-fiber MPO cable replaces six duplex LC cables. One MPO cable doing the work of six duplex runs means less time pulling cable and fewer connections to manage in the tray.
Fast Shipping Available
Standard lengths ship within 2-5 business days. Custom cables manufactured in 2-3 weeks. Nationwide delivery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Have questions about our MPO trunk cables? We’ve compiled answers to the most common questions from our customers.
Type B polarity means the cable has key-up on one end and key-down on the other end, with fiber positions reversed (1→12, 2→11, etc.). This is the industry standard for data center deployments. Type B polarity ensures proper transmit-to-receive pairing when connecting equipment, cassettes, and patch panels. It eliminates guesswork and ensures first-time-right installations.
One 12-fiber MPO trunk cable replaces six duplex LC cables. Traditional method (6 duplex cables) takes approximately 12 hours total, while MPO trunk method (1 cable) takes only 30 minutes. Time saved: 95% for equivalent connectivity. Additional benefits include less cable congestion, simpler cable management, and easier troubleshooting.
MPO trunk cables work well for direct connections between QSFP+ transceivers, switches, and distribution systems. The Type B polarity configuration ensures proper fiber alignment. Common direct connections include 40G switch to switch, server with QSFP+ NIC to switch, and storage array to network.
Our elite 0.35dB connectors provide significantly better performance than standard 0.5–0.75dB connectors. For 100GBASE-SR4 over OM4 fiber, the total link budget is only 1.9dB. Every connection point matters. With multiple connections in typical deployments, elite connectors provide essential performance margin.
