MTP Breakout Cables Overview

The MTP Breakout Cables category contains four Elite fiber breakout cables for high-density data center optical links. The series includes one OS2 single-mode model and three OM4 multimode models, using female MTP®-8 or MTP®-16 trunk connectors that divide into two female MTP®-4 or MTP®-8 branches. All cables feature OFNP plenum-rated jackets and are available in lengths from 1m to 50m. Depending on the model, the branch connectors use APC or UPC finishes. These 8-fiber and 16-fiber assemblies support direct breakout connections between optical transceivers without requiring a separate breakout enclosure.

S2-8F-MTPA-2MTPA is an 8-fiber OS2 single-mode Elite breakout cable with one female MTP®-8 APC connector dividing into two female MTP®-4 APC branches. It features a yellow OFNP plenum-rated jacket and is available in lengths from 1m to 50m. The assembly supports direct breakout connections in high-speed data center optical links and removes the need for a separate breakout enclosure.

M4-8F-MTPA-2MTPA is an 8-fiber OM4 multimode Elite breakout cable configured with one female MTP®-8 APC trunk connector and two female MTP®-4 APC branch connectors. It uses a magenta OFNP plenum-rated jacket and is offered in lengths from 1m to 50m. The cable is designed for high-density transceiver breakout links, including connections between NVIDIA InfiniBand OSFP and QSFP112 optical interfaces.

M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPA is a 16-fiber OM4 multimode Elite breakout cable with one female MTP®-16 APC connector splitting into two female MTP®-8 APC connectors. The trunk-side APC interface uses an 8-degree angled polish. This magenta OFNP plenum-rated cable is available from 1m to 50m and is designed to connect two 200G QSFP56 optical transceiver links to a 400G QSFP-DD or OSFP optical transceiver interface.

M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPU uses 16-fiber OM4 multimode cable with one female MTP®-16 APC trunk connector and two female MTP®-8 UPC branch connectors. It features a magenta OFNP plenum-rated jacket and length options from 1m to 50m. The assembly provides a direct two-branch optical connection for high-speed data center links between 200G QSFP56 transceivers and 400G QSFP-DD or OSFP transceiver interfaces.

Which connector layouts are included in the MTP Breakouts Cables category?

It includes two layouts. S2-8F-MTPA-2MTPA and M4-8F-MTPA-2MTPA use one female MTP®-8 APC connector to two female MTP®-4 APC branches, while M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPA and M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPU use one female MTP®-16 APC connector to two female MTP®-8 branches.

Which MTP Breakouts Cables model uses OS2 single-mode fiber?

S2-8F-MTPA-2MTPA uses OS2 single-mode fiber. It is an 8-fiber Elite breakout cable with one female MTP®-8 APC trunk connector, two female MTP®-4 APC branch connectors, a yellow OFNP plenum-rated jacket, and 1m to 50m length options.

How do M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPA and M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPU differ in connector polish?

The branch-side polish is different. M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPA uses two female MTP®-8 APC branch connectors, while M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPU uses two female MTP®-8 UPC branch connectors. Both models use a female MTP®-16 APC trunk connector and OM4 multimode fiber.

Can M4-8F-MTPA-2MTPA be used between NVIDIA InfiniBand OSFP and QSFP112 optical interfaces?

Yes. M4-8F-MTPA-2MTPA is designed for high-density transceiver breakout links, including connections between NVIDIA InfiniBand OSFP and QSFP112 optical interfaces, using one female MTP®-8 APC trunk connector and two female MTP®-4 APC branches.

Which MTP Breakouts Cables models support two 200G QSFP56 links to a 400G QSFP-DD or OSFP interface?

M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPA and M4-16F-MTPA-2MTPU support that breakout application. Both are 16-fiber OM4 multimode assemblies with one female MTP®-16 APC trunk connector splitting into two female MTP®-8 branch connectors.

Do MTP Breakouts Cables require a separate breakout enclosure?

No. The listed MTP Breakouts Cables are factory-built breakout assemblies that divide one MTP® trunk connector into two MTP® branch connectors, supporting direct transceiver breakout connections without a separate breakout enclosure.

What length range and jacket rating are available for MTP Breakouts Cables?

1m to 50m. All four MTP Breakouts Cables models are offered in lengths from 1m to 50m and use OFNP plenum-rated jackets for data center cabling spaces that require plenum-rated cable.

Can AICPLIGHT help confirm the correct MTP Breakouts Cables configuration before ordering?

Yes. Customers can contact AICPLIGHT before ordering to confirm fiber type, connector count, APC or UPC branch polish, length from 1m to 50m, and the required breakout connection for the target optical interfaces.
