A factory terminated MPO Female/Male harness: 24-144 Fibers (Base-24), OS2 9/125μm, Plenum (OFNP)/LSZH. It is the cleanest way to connect a parallel optics port to several duplex ports on switches, servers or patch panels.
Available lengths are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft), 25m (82ft) and 30m (98ft). We can also produce any intermediate or longer length to order, with your choice of labeling and packaging.

Applications
Typical uses include connecting a parallel optics port to multiple duplex LC ports, wiring between an MPO backbone and LC equipped switches or servers, and neat fan-out at the equipment rack. A 24-fiber MPO interface is the standard for 100GBASE-SR10 CFP, CFP2 and CPAK modules, and is equally at home in structured trunking between panels.
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 XXMPOXXSMF in your enquiry. Our sales team can also advise on polarity, gender and jacket choices if your project documentation is not final yet.
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.
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.
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.
