What is MT Ferrule
MT ferrule is a type of ferrule used in high-density optical fiber connectors, such as MPO connector (Multi-fiber Push On) and MTP (Multifiber Termination Push-on). The MT ferrule is a square component(normally 6.4×2.5mm) that holds and aligns multiple fibers in a compact form factor. It provides improved optical performance by precisely aligning the fibers and minimizing the loss of light between them.
MT ferrule is typically made of Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) and can be terminated with various connectors and MPO cables.
