What does this cable connect?

It takes one MPO-12 APC multimode trunk and breaks it out to two MPO-12 APC connectors. That lets one 12-fiber run feed two separate links.

Is it singlemode or multimode?

It is multimode fiber (MMF). It is meant for short-to-medium data center runs, not long singlemode spans.

No. It is a passive fiber cable with no electronics, so it needs no power or configuration.

APC means angled physical contact, with an 8-degree polish that reduces back reflection. APC and UPC MPO endfaces should not be mated to each other.

No. The breakout is directional: one MPO-12 APC connector splits into two. It is not a merger for two sources.
