MMC Harness Cables

MMC-to-LC harness cables fan one MMC-16 APC interface out to eight LC UPC duplex legs. OS2 and OM4 versions provide sixteen fibers as eight duplex paths, connecting high-density MMC infrastructure directly to LC-equipped switches, servers or patch panels.

A direct alternative to cassette-based fan-out

A harness removes the cassette and its additional mated connection, but it does not perform electronic conversion or negotiate lane rates. The active port must expect the corresponding parallel-to-duplex fiber map. Confirm harness polarity and record each LC branch's transmit and receive destination before installation.

Review MMC and LC performance separately

The specifications list insertion and return loss for each connector type. OS2 and OM4 models have different fiber and return-loss characteristics, while the LC ends use UPC polish in both cases. Include the selected MMC and LC values in the loss budget for every complete duplex channel.

Eight branch pairs require orderly routing

Standard overall lengths are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft), with custom meter or foot lengths. Place the fan-out where every LC leg reaches without side tension. Number the eight duplex branches before dressing them, support the breakout body and preserve the applicable bend radius.
