A factory terminated MTP®-16 Female with Offset Key harness: 16 Fibers, OM4 50/125μm, Plenum (OFNP). It is the cleanest way to connect a parallel optics port to several duplex ports on switches, servers or patch panels.
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
Where a cassette would normally convert MPO to LC, this harness does the same job in one piece. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. Fewer mated pairs means better loss budget and fewer failure points.
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 16FMTPLCOM4 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
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.
How We Pack
Every cable is protected with dust caps and individual packaging before being boxed for shipment. Batch test reports and your own part number labels can be included in each bag.
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.
