Applications
Where a cassette would normally convert MPO to LC, this harness does the same job in one piece. The 8-fiber version matches 400G and 800G parallel interfaces that run on 4 or 8 lanes, such as QSFP112, OSFP and twin-port OSFP connections. Fewer mated pairs means better loss budget and fewer failure points.
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
Ordering is simple: send us 8FMTPLCSMF and your required lengths and quantities, and we return a factory quote the same working day. Small trial orders are welcome before you commit to a full project rollout.
Quality and Testing
Our test routine covers insertion loss, return loss and ferrule end face inspection on every assembly. Because testing is done in-house, custom variants receive exactly the same verification as standard models.
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.
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.
