PreCONNECT® DUODECIM - MTP®/MPO and LC-COMPACT Cabling for duplex applications
PreCONNECT® DUODECIM MTP® and LC 6-channel granularity - perfect for duplex applications
PreCONNECT® DUODECIM MTP® is the perfect solution for all who still have conventional transceivers for duplex applications on both cabling sides in foreseeable future, but want to be prepared for the migration to MPO-based parallel optics applications. Trunks and 19-inch panels can be further used for migration.
The fibre optic cabling system PreCONNECT® DUODECIM MTP® promises investment security by optimal use of the trunks for duplex applications and MPO based parallel optical applications. The perfectly matched modular individual components are quick and easy to install thanks to the factory-fabricated plug and play system.
PreCONNECT® DUODECIM LC is the alternative for 6-channel granularity without MTP® interfaces in the transmission channel.
The nx12 fiber-based cabling system consists of:
- Factory assembled fibre optic breakout and loose tube cables, FRNC-LSZH indoor cables, up to 144 fibres
- Connector systems MTP®/MPO with 12 fibres per MTP®/MPO channel or 6 LC-COMPACT per trunk leg
- Port breakout with MTP®/MPO module cassettes with LC front for PreCONNECT® DUODECIM MTP® trunks
- Four 19-inch panel systems SMAP-G2 SD, SMAP-G2 HD, SMAP-G2 UHD and VersaTray® selectable
- Suitable harnesses and patchcords
- Useful accessories
- Patch location rack

Properties of individual system components
PreCONNECT® square interfaces and installation protection:
Rosenberger OSI brought already 1991 high fiber-count factory-assembled fibre optic trunk cables to the market. PreCONNECT® STANDARD was the first in Europe developed and manufactured, high fiber-count and modular „plug and play“ fibre optic cabling system.
Equipped with PreCONNECT® square interfaces on both sides which can be tool-less hooked into the 19-inch panel systems for tensile and torsion-resistant fixing of the trunks. The trunk connector legs are suitable for the 19-inch panel systems and are packaged in non-pull-resistant dust-proof foil tubes. On request with 150N tensile strength, crush resistant, IP50 kink and torsion resistant, installation tubes available.
Connector types:
- DUODECIM MTP®, MTP® Push-Pull Boot (PPB) and MTP® PRO 12 fibres
- LC-COMPACT
Cable types:
- PreCONNECT® DUODECIM breakout-trunks: I-F(ZN)H(ZN)H 12 fibres B2ca and I-F(ZN)HH nx12 fibres breakout cables CPR class Cca
- PreCONNECT® DUODECIM trunks: I-B(ZN)BH nx12 fibres loose tube cables CPR class B2ca
Fibre types:
- Multimode OM4 bend-insensitive
- Singlemode G.657.A1 bend-insensitive and backwards compatible to G.652.D
Operating temperature range: -10°C to +60°C
Length definition:
Order length = length between the connectors of the longest legs at both sides, not between the PreCONNECT® square interfaces.
Delivery form:
Dependent on the length as cable ring or on cardboard or wooden drum.
Insertion loss measured acc. to IEC 61300-3-4, method C, or "substitution" MM 850 nm / SM 1310 nm, with measurement protocol.
Product label with serial number at both sides.
