Now on market, there are many styles of MPO patch panels, which can be customized according to customer needs. Most of the MPO patch panel materials are cold-rolled steel plates with electrostatic spraying, and aluminum alloy materials can also be used to meet lightweight requirements. MPO Patch panels support multiple interfaces and are compatible with single-mode (long-distance transmission) and multi-mode (short-distance high-speed) fibers.
MPO/MTP patch panels can be configured with pre-short-connect modules, cable management frames and labeling systems, and are suitable for 200G and 400G backbone networks. If an intelligent scanning module is configured to implement database management, the operation and maintenance error rate can be reduced by 40%.
At present, the MPO patch panels Yingda provided can be divided into the following categories according to the installation structure, port density, functionality and application scenarios:
Classification by installation structure
Based on whether the internal structure can be directly operated on the front panel, the patch panel can be divided into pull-out type and rack mount type.
Rack mount patch panel
- Opening method: The top cover must be opened before internal wiring operations can be performed. After the operation is completed, the cover must be closed before it can be installed in the cabinet. If maintenance is required later, the entire patch panel must be removed and the top cover opened.
- Standard rack-mounted: Suitable for 19-inch cabinets, with modular drawer design for centralized wiring management.
- Deep customization: Supports different cabinet depths such as 250mm, 300mm, 600mm, 800mm, etc., to meet the space constraints of data centers.
- Front panel customization: The front adapter panel can be customized, 3 ports or 4 ports, suitable for standard plug in type LGX module, and equipped with appropriate wiring cable management panels or baffles, dust protection, simple and beautiful.
Pull-out patch panel (Sliding patch panel)
- Opening method: You can install the patch panel on the cabinet in advance, and then pull out the internal wiring area to perform wiring operations without opening the top cover. It is also convenient for quick access to the back-end optical fiber during maintenance, reducing downtime.
- Standard rack-mounted type: Suitable for 19-inch cabinets, adopts modular drawer design, supports dual-rail installation, and is convenient for centralized wiring management.
- Deep customization: Supports different cabinet depths such as 250mm, 300mm, 600mm, 800mm, etc., to meet the space constraints of data centers.
- Front panel customization: The front adapter panel can be customized, 3 ports or 4 ports, suitable for standard plug-in type LGX module, and equipped with appropriate wiring cable management panel or baffle, dust protection, simple and beautiful.
Classification by port density
Basic density type
- 1U 96 cores fiber patch panel: Integrates 4 x 24 core pre-terminated MPO modules to optimize space utilization, with a total capacity of 96 cores.
- Supports 12 core or 24 core MPO adapters, suitable for small and medium-sized network deployments.
High-density type
- 1U 144 cores fiber patch panel: Ultra-high-density layout is achieved through 12 x 12 core MPO modules, which is 6 times denser than traditional LC patch panels.
- Extended model: 2U can reach 288 cores, 3U can reach 576 cores, meeting the needs of ultra-large-scale data centers.
Classification by functional
Cassette patch panel
Supports flexible replacement of adapter modules (such as LC/SC/MPO), compatible with singlemode multi-mode fiber, and adaptable to 40G to 400G network upgrades. Reserved expansion slots support on-demand port addition.
Direct distribution patch panel
The direct distribution structure allows quick access to the back-end fiber during maintenance, reducing downtime, no need MPO cassette modules. Only use MPO to LC breakout cable or MPO to SC breakout cables instead.
Electronic intelligent patch panel
Integrated electronic label and port monitoring functions, real-time tracking of fiber connection status, improving operation and maintenance efficiency.
Applicable to the core area of the data center (such as MDA/IDA), supporting automated management.
Customized according to application
- Data center dedicated type: Enhanced heat dissipation and earthquake resistance design, adaptable to pre-terminated systems, and support high-density transmission of east-west traffic (such as core switch interconnection).
- 5G fronthaul network patch panel: Optimized for base station BBU-AAU connection, meeting low latency and high reliability requirements.
- Industrial-grade reinforced type: Dust-proof and corrosion-resistant materials (such as cold-rolled steel plate + black matte coating) are used to adapt to harsh environments such as workshops and power.
Conclusion
MPO patch panels are commonly used in 1U, 2U, 3U and 4U, with various panels, styles and structures, and can be customized with the styles and silk-screen customer logos that customers want to better achieve brand promotion. Welcome to inquire.
