Singlemode Breakout Cassette for 40/100 Gb MTP/MPO to 10 Gb LC Connections
The N482-3M8L12S 8.3/125 Singlemode Fiber Optic Breakout Cassette works in tandem with Tripp Lite’s N482-00U, N482-01U or N482-02U chassis (sold separately) to connect 12 LC duplex fiber cables with three 8-fiber MTP/MPO connections in high-density network applications.
Optimized for Parallel Optics and Base-8 Connectivity
Ideal for interconnecting any combination of 10 Gb, 40 Gb and 100 Gb network equipment in a simple, elegant and highly flexible way, the N482-3M8L12S is compatible with recommended Tripp Lite cabling, including the N370- and N390-Series patch cables. Its 8-fiber MTP ports are Polarity B, optimized for parallel optics and Base-8 connectivity.
Easy to Install with No Tools Needed
The fiber optic cassette installs easily in the N482-00U, N482-01U or N482-02U chassis with no tools required. Just insert the cassette into the chassis, and tighten its retention clips to secure it. Plug LC patch cables into the cassette using the cables’ convenient push/pull tabs. One cassette fits into the N482-00U chassis, five fit into the N482-01U, and 14 fit into the N482-02U. Dust tabs protect unused ports from potential damage.
Constructed from Premium Components
With a durable plastic housing and factory-terminated connectors that reduce time and labor costs, the N482-3M8L12S is made from only the finest materials to ensure fast installations and optimal performance.
Meets or Exceeds the Latest Standards
The N482-3M8L12S complies with IEEE 802.3ae (10 GbE) and ANSI T11.2 (Fibre Channel) requirements. Maximum insertion loss of 0.35 dB falls well under the IEEE 802.3ae maximum channel loss specification of <25 dB.
Upgrade or Expand Your Application
The modular design 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 devices of varying speeds, you can mix and match 10 Gb, 40 Gb and 100 Gb network equipment. The N482-3M8L12S supports 40/100 Gb internally using singlemode fiber optic cables. It is ideal for QSFP fabric switches that use eight out of 12 available MTP fibers for four-lane parallel optics to 40/100 Gb.
Lifetime Warranty and Environmentally Responsible Design
The N482-3M8L12S comes with a lifetime warranty. It’s manufactured in compliance with strict RoHS specifications, reflecting Tripp Lite’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
