16-Fiber OS2 MPO-16 Cable for 800G DR8 and Emerging 1.6T
This 16-fiber OS2 MPO-16 assembly supports compatible eight-lane single-mode parallel-optics interfaces such as 800G DR8-class links. It can also be considered in physical-layer planning for emerging 1.6T architectures, subject to the final transceiver MDI and published standard. Link reach is governed by the optics and complete channel loss budget.
Fiber type
OS2 single-mode, 9/125 µm
Fiber count
16 fibers
Connector
MPO-16; APC/UPC and gender by optical MDI
Lane capacity
8 transmit/receive lane pairs
