Which of the following connectors allows a singular QSFP transceiver to have several physical connections?
The correct answer is D. MPO. The MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) connector is designed to handle multiple fiber strands in a single connector, and it is commonly used with high-density transceivers like QSFP (Quad Small Form- factor Pluggable). QSFP can support up to four channels (hence "quad"), and MPO…

Explanation
The MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) connector is designed to handle multiple fiber strands in a single connector, and it is commonly used with high-density transceivers like QSFP (Quad Small Form- factor Pluggable). QSFP can support up to four channels (hence "quad"), and MPO connectors can interface multiple fibers (e.g., 8, 12, 24), making them ideal for 40Gbps or 100Gbps deployments.
