Using an MTP12 connector instead of an LC connector will increase the maximum insertion loss +0.5 dB.

Bulk reconfiguration of connections between any two sets (back-to-back) involves detecting conflicts,
deleting some or all connections from the existing set, and remaking a new set of connections. Each bulk
set for CALIENT takes up to 200 msec. If an external controller were to manage these conflicts and send
deletes of the first set, followed by the making of a new set, the S320 OCS would be able to complete the
reconfiguration in less than 200 msec. If, however, S320 software were to manage these tasks, the time
could be increased up to 500 msec in a worst-case scenario.
A.4 Environmental Requirements
Table 5 in section 4.4.3 of this document provides detailed information on environmental
requirements for the S320 OCS.
