MMC-16 to MMC-16 APC Jumper, 16 FibersMMC-16 to MMC-16 APC Jumper, 16 Fibers, OS2
New Zealand engineering teams can use the documented values below to compare the product with the intended channel and as-built requirements. The 16FMMCSMF jumper links two MMC-16 APC female interfaces with sixteen OS2 fibers in a single 2.5mm plenum cable. It is appropriate for dense single-mode patching where a compact connector footprint and controlled fiber allocation matter as much as optical loss. G.657.A1 glass supports routing through crowded managers without abandoning single-mode bend behavior.

Where this MMC-to-MMC jumper fits
Use the supplied assembly between MMC adapter positions or other non-pinned MMC joint points in a structured cabling optical path. The two connection points are female; therefore, the mating interface must provide the corresponding guide pins. It is not equivalent to a standard replacement for an LC duplex cord: the sixteen fibers remain in one multi-fiber interface at every end, making the relevant jumper most helpful in parallel-optics and high-density panel environments.
Optical budget and routing details
Every MMC joint is specified at 0.35dB maximum insertion loss and at least 60dB return loss. Those data belong in the optical path calculation alongside each adapter and trunk in the channel. The relevant cable has a 10mm minimum fiber bend radius and a 20/10D dynamic/static cable bend requirement; leave adequate space behind the relevant panel to meet those limits rather than forcing the boot into a sharp turn.
Lengths, polarity and incoming inspection
Regular length versions are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft), with other lengths offered in feet or meters. This design uses jumper polarity, which should be checked against the end-to-end channel rather than assumed from the relevant connector shape alone. cross-check APC-to-APC compatibility, review the two ferrules and ensure that the relevant panel key orientation matches the relevant connector before final connection.
Ordering and Factory Support
Reference 16FMMCSMF with the intended length and quantity. For a non-standard channel, submit the desired length, identification and packing data; our support staff may additionally examine polarity and gender against the relevant panel schedule before production is released. New Zealand project orders can include documentation and labeling requirements alongside the technical configuration.
