MPO to FC APC 8 Fiber Breakout Cable, Single Mode OS2, MPO Male to FC/APC Fanout Cable

Product Overview

The MPO to FC APC Cable is an 8-fiber breakout assembly designed to convert a high-density MPO interface into multiple FC/APC connections. This design enables efficient fiber management while reducing installation complexity in optical networks.

Using premium OS2 single mode fiber, the cable provides low attenuation and excellent optical performance across long-distance transmission applications. The FC/APC connectors feature an angled physical contact polish that minimizes back reflection, making them ideal for GPON, XGS-PON, CATV, and other sensitive optical systems.

This MPO to FC Fanout Cable is widely used in telecom networks, central offices, fiber distribution frames, and backbone infrastructure where reliable optical connectivity is essential.

Why Use FC/APC Connectors?

FC/APC connectors are widely used in optical transmission systems that require excellent return loss performance and high connection stability.

Typical return loss values:

• FC/UPC: 50–55 dB
• FC/APC: 60–70 dB

The threaded coupling mechanism of FC connectors provides superior vibration resistance compared to push-pull connectors, making FC/APC assemblies particularly suitable for:

• Telecom Networks
• CATV Systems
• Optical Test Equipment
• Long-Haul Fiber Links
• GPON and XGS-PON Deployments

For networks sensitive to optical reflection, MPO to FC APC Cable assemblies help improve signal quality and transmission stability.
