MTP-16 APC to 8 x LC UPC Harness, 16 Fibers, OM4, Crossover

Our MTP®-16 Female with Offset Key harness cable gives you a direct MTP to LC duplex connection without any intermediate hardware. 16 Fibers on OM4 50/125μm fiber with Plenum (OFNP) jacket, with each LC leg labeled for fast port mapping.

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.

This harness is ideal when your backbone is multi-fiber but the equipment side is duplex LC. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. It eliminates the cassette, reduces connection points and lowers total link loss.

The harness replaces a cassette with a direct optical path from the MPO connector to each LC pair. This removes two mated connections from the channel, improving both loss budget and reliability. Custom leg lengths and labels are available on request.

Ordering is simple: send us 16FMTPLCOM4 and your required lengths and quantities, and we return a factory quote the same working day. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Small trial orders are welcome before you commit to a full project rollout.

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.

We dispatch worldwide by international courier, with air and sea freight options for bulk orders. Goods can be sent collect on your courier account, and documentation for customs clearance is provided with every shipment.

Each assembly is coiled, capped and sealed in an individual bag, then packed into foam lined export cartons. Test reports can be attached per unit or per batch, and carton marks follow your shipping instructions.
