AI workloads, big data, cloud services and low-latency applications no longer only require speed – they also demand reliable, scalable and high-density fiber optic infrastructure. One of the most efficient ways to meet this demand is with the Sylex MMC® connector–based fiber optic interconnection portfolio.

Sylex MMC® connector solutions are designed for next-generation data centers, AI/ML clusters, high-bandwidth backbone networks and sensor-based fiber monitoring systems. As a very small form factor (VSFF) platform, MMC® enables compact, high-density fiber connectivity for modern 400G / 800G environments.

What Is the Sylex MMC® Connector?

MMC® is a multi-fiber connector platform that offers higher port density and a more compact form factor compared to traditional MPO/MTP® solutions. It is ideal for trunk cables, patch cords, fan-out assemblies and loopback test modules in hyperscale data centers, 400G / 800G links and AI infrastructure.

Sylex designs and manufactures a wide portfolio of cable assemblies, fan-outs and loopback modules based on MMC®, leveraging its long-standing expertise in optical interconnects and fiber sensor systems.
