FMPOMRSSSGR Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FMPOMRSSSGR is a Fiber Optic Plug Connector manufactured by Panduit Corp, classified as an MPO Splice-On Connector in the Male, Duplex configuration. This component is designed for singlemode fiber optic applications with a 9µm core diameter and 125µm cladding diameter. The connector features a push-pull fastening mechanism, dust cap, and strain relief, with typical attenuation of -0.75dB and reflection performance of -60dB.

The FMPOMRSSSGR is designated as Obsolete in product status. Locating equivalent or substitute components becomes necessary when original stock is depleted, when procurement lead times are extended, or when system integration requires components with compatible electrical and mechanical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute components for the FMPOMRSSSGR must satisfy the following critical parameters to ensure functional and mechanical compatibility:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Connector Style: MPO
• Connector Type: Plug
• Simplex/Duplex Configuration: Duplex
• Mode: Singlemode
• Fiber Core Diameter: 9µm
• Fiber Cladding Diameter: 125µm
• Mounting Type: Free Hanging (In-Line)
• Fastening Type: Push-Pull
• Features: Dust Cap and Strain Relief

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 Compliance
• REACH Unaffected Status

Substitute parts must match all primary criteria to ensure direct replacement capability in existing fiber optic systems. Deviations in connector style, duplex configuration, fiber specifications, or fastening mechanism would result in incompatibility with mating components and system architecture.

No manufacturer-recommended substitutes have been provided for this part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FMPOMRSSSGR is classified as Obsolete. When selecting substitute components, the following engineering considerations apply:

Compliance Verification: Any substitute part must maintain ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status to satisfy current regulatory requirements for electronic components in regulated markets.

Functional Equivalence: Substitute parts must deliver equivalent optical performance, specifically matching the attenuation specification of -0.75dB typical and reflection performance of -60dB. These parameters ensure signal integrity and system performance consistency.

Mechanical Compatibility: The push-pull fastening mechanism and free-hanging in-line mounting configuration are critical for system integration. Substitute connectors must employ identical fastening and mounting architectures to ensure compatibility with existing cable assemblies and panel-mount equipment.

Fiber Specification Alignment: The 9µm core diameter with 125µm cladding diameter specification is fundamental to singlemode fiber optic systems. Substitute parts must maintain this exact fiber specification to prevent signal degradation and system incompatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes a fiber optic connector a valid substitute for the FMPOMRSSSGR?

A: A valid substitute must be an MPO-style duplex plug connector for singlemode fiber with 9µm core and 125µm cladding diameter, featuring push-pull fastening, free-hanging in-line mounting, dust cap, and strain relief. The substitute must also maintain ROHS3 Compliance and REACH Unaffected status.

Q: Can I use a simplex MPO connector as a substitute for this duplex connector?

A: No. The FMPOMRSSSGR is a duplex connector. Simplex connectors have different mechanical and optical configurations and are not compatible with duplex mating components or system architecture.

Q: Does the housing color affect substitution compatibility?

A: Housing color is a visual identification feature and does not affect electrical or optical performance. However, color coding conventions may be established within specific system designs for organizational purposes.

Q: What is the significance of the -0.75dB attenuation specification in selecting a substitute?

A: The attenuation specification indicates signal loss through the connector. Substitute connectors must meet or exceed this performance level to maintain system signal integrity and link budget calculations.

Q: Are there any temperature or environmental operating parameters I should consider when selecting a substitute?

A: Operating temperature and environmental specifications were not provided for the FMPOMRSSSGR. Substitute selection should be based on the parameters explicitly defined: connector style, duplex configuration, fiber specifications, fastening type, and compliance certifications.

Q: What does "Free Hanging (In-Line)" mounting type mean for substitution purposes?

A: This mounting type indicates the connector is designed for cable-to-cable or cable-to-equipment connections without panel mounting hardware. Substitute connectors must employ the same in-line mounting architecture to ensure compatibility with existing cable assemblies.

Q: Is the dust cap a critical feature for substitution?

A: Yes. The dust cap is listed as a feature of the FMPOMRSSSGR. Substitute connectors must include dust cap protection to maintain fiber end-face cleanliness and prevent contamination in fiber optic systems.
