MTP-16 APC to 8 x LC UPC Harness, 16 Fibers, OS2, Crossover

A factory terminated MTP®-16 Female with Offset Key harness: 16 Fibers, OS2 9/125μm, Plenum (OFNP). It is the cleanest way to connect a parallel optics port to several duplex ports on switches, servers or patch panels.
Standard lengths are 1m (3ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft), 30m (98ft) and 40m (131ft). Because we are the manufacturer, any other length between or beyond these steps can be produced on request, with your choice of jacket color, labeling and packaging.

Applications
Typical uses include connecting a parallel optics port to multiple duplex LC ports, wiring between an MPO backbone and LC equipped switches or servers, and neat fan-out at the equipment rack. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes.
LC Legs and Port Mapping
Every LC duplex leg is factory polished and tested individually, with return loss well above the multimode or single mode requirement. The fan-out is compact and strain relieved, and the leg numbering matches the polarity table for error-free patching.
Ordering Information
To order, quote 16FMTPLCSMF together with the length and quantity you need. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Private labeling, custom packaging and project specific documentation are all handled in-house.
Quality and Testing
Every MPO/MTP assembly leaving our factory is 100% tested for insertion loss and return loss, with end face geometry checks on the multi-fiber ferrules. Controlled polishing keeps the loss budget stable across the whole batch, which matters when several mated pairs sit in one link.
Logistics
Standard configurations normally ship within a few working days by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS. For project quantities we arrange air or sea freight, and we can ship on your own courier account or deliver to your appointed forwarder.
How We Pack
Every cable is protected with dust caps and individual packaging before being boxed for shipment. Batch test reports and your own part number labels can be included in each bag.
