This 72 Fibers (Base-12) MTP® Elite Male trunk assembly is built for backbone cabling between racks, rows and distribution frames. OM4 50/125μm fiber, Plenum (OFNP) jacket and factory installed pulling protection make it a one-pull replacement for hours of field termination work.
Standard lengths are 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 40m (131ft). Because we are the manufacturer, any other length between or beyond these steps can be produced on request, with your choice of jacket color, labeling and packaging.

Applications
This trunk is designed for permanent backbone positions: between patch panels, from the core to aggregation rows, or between buildings on a campus. The 72 Fibers (Base-12) construction concentrates the equivalent of many duplex jumpers into a single assembly, which is exactly what high density spine and leaf cabling needs. Every breakout leg is numbered, which simplifies documentation and troubleshooting.
Trunk Construction and Polarity
The trunk uses a double jacket design: a rugged outer sheath protects the whole bundle, while each breakout leg keeps its own jacket and numbering. Base-8 and Base-12 constructions are available depending on the fiber count. Polarity follows the Type shown in the table, and pulling eyes or mesh grips can be fitted for installation.
Ordering Information
Please reference 72FMTPOM4 in your enquiry. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Our sales team can also advise on polarity, gender and jacket choices if your project documentation is not final yet.
Built to Your Spec
Our engineering team handles custom MPO/MTP assemblies daily. If the standard configuration does not match your link design, send us the requirement and we will build exactly what your network needs at factory-direct cost.
Quality and Testing
Our test routine covers insertion loss, return loss and ferrule end face inspection on every assembly. Because testing is done in-house, custom variants receive exactly the same verification as standard models.
Logistics
Standard configurations normally ship within a few working days by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS. For project quantities we arrange air or sea freight, and we can ship on your own courier account or deliver to your appointed forwarder.
