MMC-16 to MTP-16 APC Jumper, 16 Fibers, OM4

Projects in the Philippines benefit from keeping the configuration, branch identification and installation requirement consistent across every participating site. This MMC-16 to MTP-16 jumper connects two separate multi-fiber form factors over sixteen OM4 fibers. The MMC termination and MTP Elite end are both APC female, and the bend-insensitive multimode cable uses a 2.5mm plenum jacket. It offers a direct, compact patching alternative between MMC infrastructure and existing MTP-16 multimode hardware.

Product Highlights

• Standard length options: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft)

Specifications

Practical role in a multimode channel

The factory-built assembly suits migrations where MMC panels are being introduced without replacing every MTP-based joint. A single factory-built jumper avoids an extra adapter pair that would otherwise be needed to convert form factors. It remains essential to inspect that the active equipment or cassette presents the right pinned mates and that the optical path requires APC at both cable ends.

Connector-specific return-loss requirements

The MMC interface is specified for at least 40dB return loss, and at the same time the MTP APC interface is specified for at least 45dB; maximum insertion loss across the factory-built assembly is 0.35dB. Keeping separate connector values in the documentation makes fault isolation more meaningful. OM4 attenuation is 2.3dB/km at 850nm and 0.6dB/km at 1300nm, with actual configuration reach set by the optics.

Installation length and cable care

Determine from 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft) standard versions, or order a custom meter or foot length. Take care not to pull the factory-built assembly by either connector boot during routing. Support the 2.5mm cable through the manager, retain the 7.5mm fiber bend allowance and keep dust caps fitted until both end faces have been inspected.

Ordering and Factory Support

Order by part number 16FMMCMTPOM4 with length and unit count. Custom tags may identify the MMC and MTP ends individually, which is helpful when numerous transition patch leads occupy the equivalent panel; order this labeling when submitting the order. Customers in the Philippines can include multi-site labeling or documentation requirements when requesting a project quotation.
