Molex 106114 and 106292 series MMC cable assemblies and adapters

Helping data centers optimize space and density to meet AI-driven demands for increased capacity and performance, the MMC system leverages a very small form factor (VSFF) design to achieve higher density within the same footprint. MMC Cable Assemblies and Adapters are available with 16 or 24 fibers, providing higher cabling port density and low-loss performance in a compact design to support high-bandwidth applications.

Features

• Offers higher port density than alternative optical connectors 
  • The compact form factor delivers up to three times the fiber density per rack unit when compared to MPO/MTP connectors
• Simplifies data center architecture by consolidating multiple connections into one connector
  • Aggregating multiple 8F MPO/MTP connections into a single 16F MMC connector streamlines infrastructure and helps optimize both space and network reliability.
• Simplifies installation and maintenance
  • The push-pull boot and polarized guide rails make installation faster and easier while reducing the chance of assembly errors.
• Supports higher data rates and increased capacity for data centers
  • With increased fiber counts of 16 or 24 fibers in a single connector, the MMC system simplifies capacity upgrades for high-performance applications like hyperscale data centers.
• Enhances EMI protection and helps improve signal integrity
  • EMI adapters use shielded designs, grounding mechanisms and high-quality materials to improve performance in applications subject to electronic noise.
