MTP-16 APC to 8 x LC UPC Harness, 16MTP-16 APC to 8 x LC UPC Harness, 16 Fibers, OS2, Crossover
One MTP®-16 Female with Offset Key harness replaces a cassette, two patch cords and the loss that comes with them. OS2 9/125μm fiber and Plenum (OFNP) jacket, built and tested end to end in our own facility.
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
Install this harness between an MPO trunk or panel and LC based transceivers. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. The labeled duplex legs make it easy to land each pair on the correct port.
LC Legs and Port Mapping
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 Information
Please reference 16FMTPLCSMF in your enquiry. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Our sales team can also advise on polarity, gender and jacket choices if your project documentation is not final yet.
Logistics
Most orders leave our facility within a few working days. Courier, air freight and sea freight are all available, and we are happy to hand goods to your nominated forwarder in China.
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.
Built to Your Spec
Our engineering team handles custom MPO/MTP assemblies daily. If the standard configuration does not match your link design, send us the requirement and we will build exactly what your network needs at factory-direct cost.
