MPO-PLUS® Bayonet Connector
Compact, Quick-Lock MPO for High-Density Builds
Foss offers assembly based on SENKO’s MPO-PLUS® Bayonet connector. SENKO’s MPO-PLUS® Bayonet is a compact, quick-locking MPO connector designed for space-constrained, high-density fiber deployments.
- Bayonet lock for fast, secure mating in tight spaces.
- Ultra-short housing (<18 mm), ideal near on-board optics and crowded panels.
- Up to 32 fibers per connector; SM and MM options.
- Low-loss ferrules, free-floating ferrule for repeatable performance.

Key Features
- Locking bayonet housing: insert into an MPO adapter and rotate the rear bayonet until it latches, no latch wings to pinch in dense racks.
- Low-loss performance: high-grade, free-floating MT ferrules support tight loss budgets with repeatability and durability.
- Fiber counts & keying: 12/24F with center key; 16/32F with offset key.
- Spring-loaded ferrule: robust spring design supports multi-row ferrules (16/24/32F) for stable endface contact.
- Adapter compatibility: designed to work with standard MPO adapter footprints.

Applications
Data centers and on-board optics, wireless/telecom, and medical/industrial environments where every millimeter counts.
