MTP-16 to 2 x MTP-8 APC Breakout Cable, 16 Fibers, OM4, Crossover
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. OM4 50/125μm 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
Use this cable to break a high speed parallel connection into independent links to switches, adapters or DPUs. The 16-fiber interface matches 400G SR8 optics, where all 16 fibers carry active transmit and receive lanes. It is a clean, low loss alternative to modular cassettes in dense AI and HPC fabrics.
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
To order, quote 16FMTPOM4 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.
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.
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
Every MPO/MTP assembly leaving our factory is 100% tested for insertion loss and return loss, with end face geometry checks on the multi-fiber ferrules. Controlled polishing keeps the loss budget stable across the whole batch, which matters when several mated pairs sit in one link.
