MMC-24 APC to 3 x MTP-8 APC Breakout Cable, 24 Fibers, OM4

The APC-to-APC version of the 24FMMCMTPOM4 breakout carries 24 OM4 fibers from one MMC APC female connector to three MTP-8 APC Elite female legs. All connection points use APC polish, and the fan-out follows factory harness polarity. It provides three eight-fiber multimode paths in one compact, factory-terminated assembly.

Product Highlights

• MMC Female to MTP® Female, 24 Fibers
• OM4 50/125µm, bend-insensitive fiber
• MMC insertion loss ≤0.35dB, return loss ≥40/45dB (MMC/MTP®)
• Harness Polarity wiring scheme
• 2.5mm Plenum (OFNP) cable
• Standard length options: 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft)

This cable is appropriate when both the MMC infrastructure and all three MTP destinations are designed for APC. The connectors are female and non-pinned, so pinned mates are required throughout. Before deployment, verify that the application truly calls for three eight-fiber branches and that no additional polarity reversal is introduced by the connected trunk or cassette.

The assembly is rated at 0.35dB maximum insertion loss, with at least 40dB return loss at MMC and 45dB at MTP APC. Use these connector-specific values when reviewing the passive link. OM4 performance at 850/1300nm supports multimode systems, but allowable distance and total connection count remain properties of the complete transceiver channel.

Standard lengths are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft), with custom lengths in meters or feet. Because three similar MTP connectors leave one fan-out, branch labels are particularly valuable. Maintain gentle routing around the breakout body, inspect every ferrule and cap any branch that is not connected immediately.

Specify 24FMMCMTPOM4 in the APC-to-APC three-leg configuration, with length and quantity. If the three branches terminate in different rack locations, provide the required leg arrangement and labeling rather than relying on a generic fan-out drawing.
