GLOBALfiber MPOP-16OM4-APCFF-xx is an OM4 multimode MPO patch cable for multi-fiber links between compatible equipment or distribution points. The documented product uses polarity B and 16 fibers.
Connector compatibility and polarity
Which MPO cable configuration is required? Match the fiber class, contact count, connector gender, polish and polarity to both ends of the complete connection. This patch uses polarity B; it must not be substituted solely on fiber count. APC polish must match the mating port.

Installation requirements
Check guide-pin compatibility and the complete polarity map through every adapter, cassette and cable. Clean and inspect both end faces before mating. Verify the transceiver optical interface, fiber lane allocation and loss budget. Never assume that the series list of 40G/100G/200G/400G applications guarantees a specific speed or reach for this ordered assembly.
The linked datasheet includes wider series options. Only the configuration identified for this product is listed above; custom lengths or alternative fiber/gender options are not assumed to be stocked variants.
