In October 2024, T&S Communications was officially certified by US Conec for its MMC connector and TMT ferrule termination and assembly capabilities, in full compliance with the stringent standards outlined in TN-1000: MMC-CERT Version 1.0. This places T&S among a select group of global manufacturers recognized for their advanced expertise in MMC connector solutions.
About the MMC Connector
The MMC (Multi-fiber Multi-Row Connector) is a next-generation high-density fiber optic interconnect solution developed by US Conec, designed to meet the rapidly growing bandwidth and space demands of hyperscale data centers, high-performance computing (HPC), AI clusters, and cloud infrastructure.
Compared with traditional MPO connectors, the MMC delivers significant advantages in design, performance, and space efficiency. Featuring US Conec’s patented TMT ferrule, a single MMC connector supports up to 3 rows × 16 fibers (48 fibers), and can be easily scaled to support thousands of fibers per panel through multi-port configurations. A 1U standard rack panel can accommodate up to 6,336 fibers, making the MMC an ideal solution for ultra-high-density environments.
With a compact Very Small Form Factor (VSFF), the MMC significantly reduces port size, enabling a threefold increase in panel density and simplifying cable management. Despite its density, the connector maintains excellent insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL) performance, fully supporting 400G/800G and higher transmission rates, and is compatible with OM3, OM4, OM5 multimode and OS2 singlemode fibers.
The MMC system supports standardized panel architectures and modular components, allowing seamless integration with existing rack infrastructure. Combined with DirectConec™ push-pull technology, the MMC simplifies installation and maintenance, making it a highly efficient and scalable solution for next-generation data center deployments.
