MMC Cleaner

MMC Fiber Optic Cleaner is a precision end-face cleaning tool purpose-built for next-generation MMC (Multi-fiber Mechanical Connector) VSFF (Very Small Form Factor) multi-fiber connectors. Featuring a compact TMT ferrule form factor, it delivers a single-push clean across all fibers in MMC-16 and MMC-32 connectors, removing dust, oil, and particulate contamination to preserve low insertion loss in high-density AI data center cabling.As the critical maintenance tool for 800G / 1.6T parallel optics systems, the BROLINK MMC Cleaner uses dry-clean microfiber tape technology — no alcohol, no solvents — for consistent, repeatable results in hyperscale data centers and high-density patch panel environments.

Products Description

BROLINK MMC cleaning pen is engineered for VSFF MMC multi-fiber connectors in data centers. This upgraded version features a built-in magnet in the pen housing. One-click dry cleaning removes dust and contaminants on MMC ferrule end-faces. No alcohol required, ideal for high-density port maintenance. The magnet is well-shielded and will not interfere with optical transceivers and optical components.Integrated magnet embedded in the pen body. The cleaner can be securely attached to metal racks, ODF frames and cabinet panels in data centers. Prevent loss or dropping during field maintenance, easy access for continuous high-density port cleaning.

As the critical maintenance tool for 800G / 1.6T parallel optics systems, the BROLINK MMC Cleaner uses dry-clean microfiber tape technology - no alcohol, no solvents - for consistent, repeatable results in hyperscale data centers and high-density patch panel environments.

Compared With Traditional MPO Cleaners, MMC Cleaners Are Engineered for VSFF Density

•Tighter fit for smaller ferrules – Optimized cleaning tip matches the TMT ferrule (50% shorter, 40% thinner than standard MT), ensuring full contact with every fiber in a single sweep

•3× port density support – Designed for the same VSFF density upgrade that replaces MPO in modern racks; cleans MMC connectors in densely packed cassettes and modules

•Both pinned & unpinned compatible – Works with male (with guide pins) and female (adapter-side) MMC connectors

•APC-optimized – Engineered for 8° angled physical contact end faces, the dominant polish type for single-mode MMC deployments

•Faster per-port cleaning – One click cleans the entire MMC array, critical when maintaining hundreds of ports in a single rack unit

It is widely applied in 800G / 1.6T AI data centers, 5G front-haul networks, hyperscale cloud infrastructure, and high-density MMC cassette systems, maintaining end-face hygiene at the port densities where traditional MPO cleaners cannot reach.

BROLINK offers both MPO and MMC cleaner lines to cover the full transition from legacy MPO to next-generation VSFF connectivity.

Features

•Magnetic Pen Housing：Shielded magnet embedded into pen shell. Attach securely to metal cabinet/ODF panels for convenient storage during maintenance. Prevent tool loss and dropping. Shielded magnetic field causes no interference to optical devices.

•High cleaning efficiency: Removes dust, oil, and particles from all fibers of MMC-16 / MMC-32 end faces in a single one-push action.

•VSFF-optimized tip: Precision-machined cleaning head aligned to the TMT ferrule geometry for complete end-face coverage on every fiber.

•One-click push mechanism: Audible "click" confirmation ensures each cleaning cycle advances a fresh, uncontaminated section of microfiber tape.

•Alcohol-free dry cleaning: No solvents, no mixing, no fluid spills - safe for use in live data center racks.

•Anti-static housing: Conductive engineering plastic prevents electrostatic dust re-deposition and protects sensitive VSFF end faces.

•Ergonomic compact design: Slim pen body fits in tool pouches and reaches recessed connectors in dense adapter panels.

•Long lifespan: 500+ effective cleaning cycles per unit under normal usage.

•Dual application: Cleans exposed jumpers (male) and connectors seated in adapters (female) without swapping tips.
