Tripp Lite 40/100/400G Multimode 50/125 OM3 Fiber Optic Cable (24F MTP/MPO-PC F/F), LSZH, Aqua, 2 m (6.6 ft.)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N846B-02M-24-P is a 2 meter multimode fiber optic cable designed to support high-speed data transmission up to 400 gigabit Ethernet. Featuring a 50/125 micron OM3 core and terminated with 24-fiber MTP/MPO-PC female connectors on both ends, this cable consolidates multiple duplex runs into a single manageable assembly. It is well suited for short-distance, high-bandwidth connections within data centers, telecom rooms, or wiring closets where space and airflow are critical.

Key features

• Supports Ethernet speeds up to 400 Gb, enabling demanding data and voice applications to run smoothly.
• OM3 rating allows signal transmission up to 100 meters at 850 nm wavelength, ideal for in-rack or inter-rack links.
• 24-fiber MTP/MPO connectors with slim boots provide easier installation and removal in dense patch panels.
• Backward compatibility with 10, 25, 40, and 100 Gb networks allows gradual upgrades without replacing cables.
• Factory tested for low insertion loss and attenuation, ensuring consistent and reliable signal quality.
• Aqua-colored LSZH jacket improves cable identification and enhances safety by releasing less smoke in confined spaces.

Connectivity and compatibility

This cable is designed to connect high-speed switches, storage area networks (SANs), and other networking equipment that support multimode fiber optics. Its 24-fiber MTP/MPO connectors simplify consolidation of multiple duplex fiber runs, reducing cable clutter and improving airflow in racks. The backward compatibility with lower-speed Ethernet standards means it integrates smoothly into existing network infrastructures while supporting future upgrades.

Ideal uses and environments

The Tripp Lite N846B-02M-24-P fits well in data centers and telecom rooms where short, high-bandwidth fiber links are needed. Its compact design and LSZH jacket make it suitable for environments with strict safety requirements and limited space. Network administrators will appreciate the ease of installation and reliable performance for switch-to-switch connections or SAN links, especially in setups where maintaining signal integrity and minimizing downtime are priorities.
