MT-RJ Size Comparison

The MT-RJ. The Newest, Smallest Thing in Fibre Optics

 

Introducing the MT-RJ fibre-optic connector system from AMP. Half the size. Double the density. You're looking at the future of fibre optics. The new MT-RJ fibre system is less than half the size of the SC duplex connector and transceiver it's designed to replace, so it can double the port density of fibre-optic LAN equipment. It's easy to install, it offers full fibre dependability and performance, and it's as easy to connect and disconnect as a phone plug. By doubling the port density, it can reduce the size of fibre hubs by 50%. Expect it to start appearing in fibre hubs soon.

 

 

MT-RJ versus Duplex SC: A Comparison

MT-RJ

 Duplex SC
