Modular Photonics’ OMPlex retrofit technology enables existing legacy multi-mode (OM1-4, 50 and 62.5 micron) fibre to be operated like a single-mode fibre when using single-mode transceivers.

This retrofit technology therefore avoids the need for recabling, avoiding expensive service interruptions or building works in data centres. The technology allows for upgrades to 10G, 40G and beyond over links as long as 2 km. For more information on how this solution can seamlessly upgrade and future proof your multi-mode fibre network please contact us.

Case Study: The OMPlex Pro and OMPlex devices have recently been validated in a data centre in Australia at up to 40 Gbps and 10 Gbps, respectively, across multiple connectors consisting of MTP trunk cabling.
