Description

MTP-16 APC to 8 x LC UPC Harness, 16 Fibers, OS2, Crossover

Factory-terminated MTP-16 APC to 8× LC UPC duplex breakout harness designed for 400G and emerging 800G data center singlemode interconnects. The singlemode MTP-16 connector on one end breaks out to eight LC UPC duplex legs on the other end, giving a 16-fiber (Base-16) channel mapped with Crossover (Type B inverted) polarity. The assembly uses bend-insensitive singlemode fiber (G.657.A1) under LSZH jacket, fully 100% factory tested for insertion loss and return loss, ready for direct plug-in between Base-16 MTP trunk cables and LC switch ports or patch panels.

Key Features

  • Base-16 (16 fibers) MTP breakout: one MTP-16 APC connector breaks out to 8× duplex LC UPC legs, providing a 2× density upgrade path from Base-8 systems.
  • Crossover (Base-16) polarity: inverted Type B mapping for 400G/800G PSM4/DR4 deployments and direct MTP cassette-to-cassette connection.
  • Low insertion loss: MTP-16 APC ≤ 0.35 dB typical; LC UPC ≤ 0.2 dB typical per IEC 61753-1 Grade B.
  • High return loss: APC end ≥ 60 dB; UPC end ≥ 50 dB.
  • Bend-insensitive OS2 fiber: G.657.A1 singlemode fiber with 7.5 mm minimum bend radius.
  • LSZH jacket (yellow): OFNR-rated LSZH jacket compliant with IEC 60332-3.
  • 100% factory tested: insertion loss, return loss and endface geometry per IEC 61300-3-35; test report shipped with each assembly.

Applications

  • 400G FR4/DR4 and 800G PSM8 singlemode data center backbone breakout
  • Hyperscale spine-leaf and AI/ML fabric aggregation
  • MPO/MTP cassette to LC patch panel fan-out inside ODF frames
  • QSFP-DD / OSFP transceiver fan-out to LC ports
  • Single-mode backbone links in enterprise and telecom equipment rooms
