Bend insensitive fibre paired with high-performance MPO connectors delivers reliable connectivity for dense data centre and carrier-grade applications.
Overview
The NSComm MPO 16F APC to 8xLC UPC Duplex harness cable is a high-density OM4 multimode breakout solution designed for migration from duplex Ethernet to parallel optics in modern 400G/800G data centers. With one 16-fiber MPO-16 APC (Female) trunk breaking out to eight LC UPC duplex connectors, this harness provides sixteen active fibers to serve LC-based switch, server, or patch panel ports while aggregating cabling onto a compact MPO backbone.
Factory-terminated and 100% tested, the MPO-LC harness delivers verified low insertion loss and stable return loss for improved network integrity in 50/100G duplex and 400/800G parallel Ethernet environments. Built on bend-insensitive OM4 50/125 μm multimode fiber and a riser-rated OFNR jacket, it is ideal for high-density cabling in data centers, local area networks, equipment rooms, and telecommunication rooms where space savings, airflow, and clean cable management are essential. The crossover polarity design simplifies connectivity between MPO-based backbones and LC front-panel ports when migrating from duplex to parallel optics.
Need support confirming polarity, LC mapping, or compatibility with your 50/100G and 400/800G multimode transceivers? Contact us now and our team will help validate your design before deployment.
