Optical Break-Out Cable Assemblies FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS Achieve up to 80% front panel space savings with multiple break-out cable assembly options Both versions of break-out assemblies provides up to Molex is a leader in providing innovative break-out cable assemblies to meet the high density 80% space savings on the front-panel and can reduce requirements of the telecommunication and the system costs by up to 25%. For example, up to 12 Small Form-factor (SFF) transceivers mounted on a datacommunication industry. The extensive line of break-out boxes, break-out tubes and MTP* break-out line card can transition to a single MTP connector mounted on the front panel, versus transitioning to 24 assemblies provides customers the flexibility to select LC connectors or 12 duplex LC connectors. the best transition method to meet their specific application while optimizing real-estate space savings. Molex’s extensive line of spliceless single fiber and ribbon fiber cable assemblies provides numerous Version 1: Break-out boxes and tubes design options. Break-outs to single-fiber leads Break-out boxes and tubes are the traditional method terminated with industry standard LC, MU, FC, SC and that allows a spliceless transition between ribbon fiber ST connectors are available to connect with the current and discrete fibers. The break-out box ensures optical installed base of transmitters, receivers and patch integrity without the use of bulky splice sleeves. panels. Break-outs to ribbon fiber leads terminated Version 2: MTP break-out connector to MTP, HBMT™ and BMTP™ connectors provide highThe MTP break-out connector eliminates the use of density panel mount and backplane solutions. break-out boxes or tubes, resulting in valuable card space savings. The break-out from ribbon fiber to discrete fiber occurs in the crimp area of the standard MTP connector, providing additional flexibility when routing discrete fibers on the line card. Features and Benefits ■ Break-out boxes sized to fiber count ensures minimal size to reduce real estate required for mounting ■ Flat or round break-out transition systems allow multiple mounting options ■ 900µm Hytrel† discrete fiber leads are ideal for board-level use where minimal size and ease-ofrouting are critical 24-Fiber break-out box to various single-fiber connectors MTP-to-LC break-out assembly ■ 1. 60mm to 3.00mm up-jacketed leads available with Kevlar‡ are ideal for system interconnect where ruggedized leads are required SPECIFICATIONS Reference Information Packaging: Custom per assembly Specifications: MTP connector break-out assemblies and 900µm MT based break-out box and tube assemblies meet GR-2866 CORE specifications Mechanical Operating Temperature: -5 to +70°C Physical Dependent on break-out construction Optical Insertion Loss (IL): Dependent upon connector choice Reference the respective single-fiber or ribbon-fiber connector data sheet MTP break-out connector with 900µm tubing *MTP is a registered trademark of US Conec Ltd. † ‡ Hytrel and Kevlar are registered trademarks of DuPont Optical Break-Out Cable Assemblies APPLICATIONS ■ Telecommunication Equipment - Hubs - Servers 8-Fiber MTP assembly broken out to 8 LC connectors through a tube ■ Datacommunication Equipment - Line cards BREAK-OUT VERSIONS .39 10 1.30 33 Bare-Ribbon Break-Out Box Bare-Ribbon Break-Out Tube MTP Break-Out Connector ORDERING INFORMATION Order No. Break-Out Component 86085-0000 MTP Connector 86000-0061 86000-0060 86000-0062 No. of Fibers - Standard Box Jacketed Box Ribbon Type Bare 4 to 12 86000-0064 Jacketed Transition Design MPO 10.00 x 33.00 x 5.70 16.00 x 55.00 x 5.00 Flat without Stacking Tabs 86000-0065 Flat 24-Fiber Box Ø 7.60 x 22.00 1.60 or 2.00mm Ø 6.60 to Ø10.70 x 70.00 3.00mm Ø9.00 to Ø14.70 x 70.00 1.60mm Ø12.00 x 70.00 Jacketed 24 16.00 x 55.00 x 5.00 18.00 x 52.00 x 7.00 Round Tube 13 to 24 86000-0065 86000-0063 900µm Bare or Jacketed Tube Dimensions W x L x H (mm) or Diameter (Ø) x L(mm) Flat Stackable 86000-0065 86000-0065 Discrete Fiber Furcation Tube Flat 2.00mm Ø15.00 x 70.00 900µm or 1.60mm 28.00 x 61.00 x 8.00 Notes: -The information above is for provided for reference only. -Molex does not sell break-out box components as individual components; they are only sold as part of a terminated jumper or pigtail.
