Next-Gen Optical Interconnect. MPO-ELSFP Connector Patch Cord.
The MPO-ELSFP connector jumper is a high-density polarization-maintaining fiber connectivity solution designed for ELSFP external laser source and co-packaged optics (CPO) applications, delivering stable and reliable optical connections between external laser sources and CPO optical engines. Featuring high-precision mating and self-aligning design, it supports blind-mating and rapid plug/unplug, effectively improving system assembly and maintenance efficiency. The jumper utilizes polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF), which helps maintain stable polarization states of optical signals, meeting the requirements of external laser transmission in CPO systems.

Main Features
Self-Aligning Design
Engineered with advanced self-aligning capabilities, enabling the precise blind mating of up to two low-loss MT ferrules in a single connection. This ensures rapid, tool-less installation and significantly improves overall optical reliability.
Maximize Panel Space
The ultra-compact form factor is designed to maximize front-panel port density. Furthermore, a single ELSFP connector can support multiple Optical Engines (OE), drastically reducing the physical footprint required for complex routing.
Optimized Power Density
By externalizing the laser source and utilizing a highly efficient physical design, this solution significantly reduces the overall thermal power density of the system, addressing one of the most critical challenges in modern high-speed architectures.
Hot-Swappable & PM Ready
Designed for continuous operation with full hot-swapping support to completely avoid system downtime. It fully supports Polarization Maintaining (PM) fibers, ensuring exceptionally stable and consistent optical signal quality for advanced applications.
