MTP-16 to 2 x MTP-8 APC Breakout CableMTP-16 to 2 x MTP-8 APC Breakout Cable, 16 Fibers, OS2, Crossover
A MTP®-16 Female APC with Offset Key breakout cable for parallel to parallel or parallel to duplex connections. 16 Fibers, OS2 9/125μm, Plenum (OFNP). Each leg is labeled and length matched in the factory for a clean installation.
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
This breakout is used wherever one multi-fiber interface must serve several devices. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. The factory controlled fan-out keeps each leg at the right length and polarity, avoiding the tangle of separate patch cords.
Breakout Geometry and Wiring
Because the breakout is made in the factory, every leg has controlled length and identical optical performance. The mapping from trunk fibers to breakout connectors follows the specified polarity, and custom mappings are available for special transceiver combinations.
Ordering Information
Ordering is simple: send us 16FMTPSMF 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.
Quality and Testing
We do not ship untested product. Each unit is measured on calibrated equipment for optical performance and visually inspected for end face quality before packing. Batch traceability is maintained so any field issue can be tracked back to production.
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.
How We Pack
Products are packed in anti-static or PE bags with connector dust caps fitted, then boxed in sturdy export cartons. Custom labels, barcodes and carton markings are available on request.
