Abstract: Fiber optic equipment that supports 8-fiber MPO configurations that enable migration between duplex transmission and 8-fiber parallel transmission is disclosed. The fiber optic equipment comprises a fiber optic module having a front end, a rear end, and opposing sides, wherein the front end, the rear end, and the opposing sides defining an area therewithin. The fiber optic module comprises a linear array of single fiber optical connector adapters arranged in a width direction at the front end, each of the single fiber optical adapters having a front side and a rear side. The fiber optic module also comprises a rear multi-fiber adapter at the rear end of the module, the rear multi-fiber adapter having a front side and a rear side.
