Easy to Install without Tools

The cassette module snaps right in to Tripp Lite’s N482-01U 1U chassis (capacity: 5 cassettes, up to 60 Duplex LC ports) or the N482-02U 2U chassis (capacity: 14 cassettes, up to 168 Duplex LC ports). Just pop out the chassis’ blanking panel, slide in the cassette and secure it with the integrated retention clips. Three 8-fiber MTP multimode cables are already attached to reduce installation time. All you need to do is connect your LC duplex fiber cables to complete the connection. Factory-terminated OM4 connectors further reduce labor time and cost.

Guaranteed Compatibility with Tripp Lite Cables

The N482-3M8L12-B is built for use with N820- and N821-Series cables. You can connect up to 12 LC duplex fiber cables to the cassette. Tripp Lite’s compatible cables have built-in push-pull tabs so adding or removing cables in the N482-3M8L12-B is very easy and can be done without using a tool.

Future-Proof Your Installation

Tripp Lite’s modular solution makes it easy to modify, upgrade or expand your infrastructure as your needs grow. If you need to change out a single cassette, you can do so without replacing the panel or removing other cassettes. Because this system supports both 10 GB and 40 GB, you can connect network equipment of different speeds. The cassette supports 40 GbE internally using OM4 fiber optic cables and is ideal for QSFP fabric switches that use eight out of 12 available MTP fibers for four-lane parallel optics to 40 Gb.

Compliant with IEEE and ANSI Fibre Channel Standards

This breakout cassette complies with IEEE 802.3ae (10 GbE) and ANSI T11.2 (Fibre Channel) requirements. The 0.35 dB maximum insertion loss falls under IEEE 802.3ae maximum channel loss spec of <25 dB.


Lifetime Warranty and Environmentally Responsible Design

For peace of mind, the N482-3M8L12-B comes with a lifetime warranty. It’s also manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS specifications, reflecting Tripp Lite’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
