US Conec MTP® 16 Connector

The US Conec MTP® 16 connector is a high-density fiber solution designed for modern networks that require increased fiber counts without increasing panel space. iFiber Optix manufactures MTP® 16 assemblies using processes and handling methods based on official training from US Conec, ensuring proper construction, precise alignment, and reliable performance.

What Is a US Conec MTP® 16 Connector?

The MTP® 16 connector houses sixteen fibers in a single compact interface, allowing higher bandwidth per port compared to traditional MTP® connectors. This design supports efficient migration to next-generation architectures while maintaining compatibility with high-speed data center, enterprise, and telecom environments. The connector is engineered for consistent optical performance and dependable mating in high-density installations.
