The Ciena NTTC97AL is a genuine, factory-sealed 30-meter optical patchcord from Ciena's NTTC97 trunk cable family, built for the 6500 Packet-Optical Platform. It pairs two 12-fiber MTP/MPO female connectors over bend-insensitive singlemode fiber, pre-terminated in Ciena's TX/RX Type-B polarity so pluggable optics connect correctly the first time. The 30-meter length is purpose-built for longer shelf-to-shelf or rack-to-rack runs — ISPs, systems integrators, and data center teams use it to interconnect WaveLogic optics, OCLD circuit packs, and MPO patch panels inside 6500 DWDM shelves without splicing or re-polarizing fiber on site.
Key Features & Benefits
- 30-Meter 12-Fiber MTP/MPO Interconnect: Female-to-female MTP/MPO connectors carry all 12 singlemode fibers in a single 30m trunk, ideal for longer runs between racks or shelves without splicing.
- Bend-Insensitive, Riser-Rated Fiber: Built for tight cable trays and vertical risers inside 6500 shelves without macrobend-related signal loss, even over long runs.
- TX/RX Polarity Type B: Pre-terminated in Ciena's Type-B polarity scheme so transmit and receive paths align correctly without manual re-polarization.
- Genuine Ciena OEM Part: Manufactured to Ciena's exact mechanical and optical specifications for guaranteed drop-in compatibility with 6500 WaveLogic, OCLD, and FIM optics.
- Factory-Sealed Packaging: Ships unopened in original Ciena packaging, untouched since leaving the manufacturer, with full accessories intact.

- ISPs & Long-Haul CarriersExpanding or repairing Ciena 6500 DWDM rings who need a longer exact-fit trunk to reconnect pluggable optics across racks with minimal downtime.
- Systems Integrators & MSPsStandardizing spare-parts kits across multiple client sites running Ciena 6500 platforms, where guaranteed OEM compatibility matters more than price.
- NOC & Data Center EngineersPerforming scheduled maintenance or capacity upgrades who need a long-reach, bend-insensitive, low-loss singlemode trunk that meets exact polarity specs the first time.
