MPO APC 24 Fibers to 3 x 8 Fibers MPO APC OM2 OFNP Breakout Polarity Type B Yellow

Product Description:

This fanout cable transitions one 24-core MPO APC connector into three 8-core MPO APC connectors. Designed for multimode high-speed data transmission, this cable enables efficient breakout in 100G/200G applications using 8-fiber transceivers. The APC polish enhances return loss, improving signal integrity for short-reach optical links.
