This MTP®-16 Female APC with Offset Key breakout cable splits a high density multi-fiber interface into smaller legs, so one port can feed several lower speed links. OS2 9/125μm fiber and Plenum (OFNP) jacket with 16 Fibers make it a tidy alternative to cassette based fan-out.
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
To order, quote 16FMTPSMF together with the length and quantity you need. The 1m (3ft) version is the standard model; Private labeling, custom packaging and project specific documentation are all handled in-house.
How We Pack
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.
Built to Your Spec
We have manufactured fiber optic assemblies since 1995. MPO and MTP cabling is one of our core lines: fiber counts from 8 to 144, single mode and multimode, UPC and APC polish, trunk, jumper, harness and breakout formats. Send your drawing and we turn it into a ready to install assembly.
Quality and Testing
Our test routine covers insertion loss, return loss and ferrule end face inspection on every assembly. Because testing is done in-house, custom variants receive exactly the same verification as standard models.
