FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Tripp Lite N482-3M8L12S-B Fiber Breakout Cassette?
The Tripp Lite N482-3M8L12S-B is designed to connect 12 LC duplex fiber cables with three 8-fiber MTP/MPO connections in high-density network applications. It's specifically engineered for 40 GB to 10 GB conversion, working with Tripp Lite's N482-01U or N482-02U chassis. The cassette is ideal for QSFP fabric switches that use eight out of 12 available MTP fibers for four-lane parallel optics to 40 GB.
What are the compatibility requirements for this fiber breakout cassette?
The N482-3M8L12S-B is compatible with Tripp Lite's N482-01U and N482-02U chassis systems. It complies with IEEE 802.3ae (10 GbE) and ANSI T11.2 (Fibre Channel) requirements. The cassette supports 40 GbE internally using 9/125 singlemode fiber optic cable and is compatible with devices of varying speeds, including 10 GB and 40 GB network equipment.
How many ports does the N482-3M8L12S-B cassette have?
The N482-3M8L12S-B features a total of 12 LC duplex ports and 3 MT ports. It comes with three built-in 2-meter 8-fiber MTP singlemode cables. The LC ports are duplex configuration, allowing for bidirectional communication.
What is the installation process for this fiber breakout cassette?
Installation of the N482-3M8L12S-B is tool-free and straightforward. Simply insert the cassette into the compatible chassis (N482-01U or N482-02U) and secure it using the retention clips. You can install up to 5 cassettes in the N482-01U 1U chassis or up to 14 cassettes in the N482-02U 2U chassis. The factory-terminated connectors reduce installation time and labor.
What is the performance specification for insertion loss?
The N482-3M8L12S-B has a maximum insertion loss of 0.35 dB, which falls well under the IEEE 802.3ae maximum channel loss specification. This low insertion loss ensures optimal signal transmission and network performance.
