Barco 4 Port Rack mount MTP to Opticicalcon adapters - R9871287

Product Overview

Terminating multi-fiber MTP/MPO trunks neatly into a rack and transitioning them to field-friendly opticalCON connectors is a recurring need in any Event Master fiber deployment. The Barco 4-Port Rack Mount MTP to opticalCON Adapters panel, article number R9871287, provides four ports of MTP-to-opticalCON conversion in a rack-mount form factor. It supports the fiber transport used by Barco Event Master systems such as the E2, S3, and EC-210, organizing expansion-link fiber at the processor frame and at remote screen-side racks. The panel keeps connections accessible and protected at the patch point.

Product Description

This rack-mount panel breaks out MTP/MPO terminations to opticalCON connectors across four ports, giving crews a clean, serviceable interface between the rugged or install fiber trunk and the equipment it feeds. opticalCON connectors are the rugged optical standard widely used on live event floors, so this adapter lets a high-density MTP trunk land in a rack and present individual, field-durable connections. The four-port density suits installations and touring racks that carry multiple fiber links to and from an Event Master processor.

Use this panel with Barco expansion-link fiber cables and transceivers, including the Expansion Link Fiber Cable 100m, the 100m Expansion Link Fiber TX/RX Module, and the rugged 100m fiber on reel. Keep terminations clean with the MTP Fiber Optic Cleaning Kit. Browse the full range of Barco fiber transport gear in the Barco collection.
