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
In leaf-spine and GPU cluster cabling, this breakout replaces a cassette plus multiple jumpers with one tested assembly. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. Each leg is marked so port mapping is unambiguous during installation.
Breakout Geometry and Wiring
Each breakout leg is individually jacketed, labeled and measured, and the transition from trunk to legs is protected against pulling forces. If your installation needs different leg lengths or a different lane mapping, we can build it to your drawing.
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.
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.
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
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.
