Eaton N482-2M24-6M12 OM4 MTP/MPO 100/120Gb to 40Gb Breakout Cassette

The Eaton N482-2M24-6M12 is a high-density fiber optic breakout cassette engineered for seamless integration within modern data center and enterprise network environments. Designed to facilitate efficient transition between high-speed fiber optic protocols, this specialized cassette enables 100/120 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to be broken out into multiple 40 Gigabit links. It is an essential component for optimizing fiber utilization and managing complex network topologies that demand reliable, high-bandwidth interconnections. Leveraging OM4 multimode fiber, the cassette features two 24-fiber MTP/MPO male input connections that fan out to six 12-fiber OM4 MTP/MPO male output connections. This configuration, adhering to Polarity B and optimized for parallel optics with Base-8 connectivity, ensures reliable signal integrity and minimizes latency for high-performance applications. Its design is particularly suited for environments upgrading to higher data rates while needing to maintain compatibility with existing 40Gb infrastructure or distribute high-bandwidth capacity. Housed in a robust, heavy-duty steel chassis, this breakout cassette is designed for quick and tool-less installation into Tripp Lite N482-01U and N482-02U high-density fiber enclosure panels. This modular approach simplifies deployment and streamlines maintenance, allowing network administrators to rapidly expand or reconfigure their fiber optic networks. The factory-terminated connectors further reduce installation time and labor costs by eliminating the need for complex field terminations, ensuring consistent performance with a maximum insertion loss of just 0.35dB.
