Like MTP/MPO cable, MTP/MPO Shuffle cable is also used for connecting MTP modules together as a permanent link, and it also be used with plug-and-play modules or MTP/MPO connector panels to achieve multi-level connection of the extension of the pre-terminated trunk cable by MTP/MPO panel. Normally, the shuffle cables are used to interconnect cassettes, panels, or ruggedized MTP/MPO fanouts, spanning MDA, HDA, and EDA zones. The difference is that its optical fiber routing is formulated according to the requirements of the optical connection at the construction site, which can realize special optical fiber routing different from the conventional polarity, reducing network installation or reconfiguration time and cost.
