MTP-8 APC to 4 x LC UPC Harness, 8 Fibers, OS2, Type B
A factory terminated MTP® Elite Female harness: 8 Fibers, OS2 9/125μm, Plenum (OFNP). 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) and 2m (7ft). 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. The 8-fiber version matches 400G and 800G parallel interfaces that run on 4 or 8 lanes, such as QSFP112, OSFP and twin-port OSFP connections.
LC Legs and Port Mapping
Every LC duplex leg is factory polished and tested individually, with return loss well above the multimode or single mode requirement. The fan-out is compact and strain relieved, and the leg numbering matches the polarity table for error-free patching.
Ordering Information
Ordering is simple: send us 8FMTPLCSMF and your required lengths and quantities, and we return a factory quote the same working day. 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.
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.
