I splice everything myself. There's no way I get 16 customers out of a single handhole. My average is 2.3. We only have 450b in HH right now. (F1+F2+an apple core or two for drops). I think the biggest design we have is 8 and the biggest use was 5 drops.
I have no idea what they cost - they were in a storage locker last week with a billion other Commscope items. My only idea is a 450b with four apple cores - that's 16 drop cables. It'll fit inside the case easily. IDK how the hell you're getting 16 drops into one HH anywhere TBH.
