Sanwa Technologies’ VSFF (Very Small Form Factor) Series delivers high-density fiber connectivity for next-generation optical networks and space-constrained hardware. Designed around MDC connectors and MMC/MDC dust shutter adapters, this platform helps engineers increase port density while maintaining reliable performance and serviceability.

High-Density Connectivity: Up to 3× LC, Up to 432 Fibers per 1RU

The Sanwa MDC connector provides 3× the fiber cabling density compared to LC connectors, enabling designs with up to 432 fibers per 1RU for maximum rack and panel efficiency. 

If your application is limited by front-panel real estate, VSFF helps you:

• Increase fiber count without expanding footprint

• Reduce congestion in dense patching environments

• Improve airflow and cable routing in compact systems

Fast, Field-Friendly Handling with Push-Pull Boot Design

The MDC connector’s push-pull boot supports easy insertion and extraction—especially valuable in high-density panels where finger access is limited. This makes installation and service faster and more reliable in real-world environments.

Simple Polarity Reversal for Easier Deployment

Sanwa’s MDC design includes a simple polarity reversal structure, helping teams make quick polarity adjustments during installation and commissioning—without unnecessary rework. 

Built-In IP5X Dust Shutters for Added Protection

Sanwa’s MMC and MDC Dust Shutter Adapters feature built-in IP5X-rated dust shutters, offering an extra layer of protection against dust intrusion during handling, installation, and maintenance. For environments where contamination control matters, dust shutters help preserve optical performance and reduce cleaning time.
