Eaton Tripp Lite N846D-01M-24CAQ 400G OM4 Breakout Fiber optic cable

Detailed Specifications

The Eaton N846D-01M-24CAQ is a high-performance, 1-meter multimode OM4 fiber optic breakout cable, specifically engineered to support the demanding bandwidth requirements of next-generation 400 Gigabit Ethernet (400GbE) networks. This essential connectivity solution is designed for cloud services, hyperscale data centers, and telecom applications, where reliable, high-speed data transmission is paramount. It efficiently addresses the challenge of increasing network traffic by providing robust support for advanced data and voice networking infrastructures. This particular breakout cable features a 24-fiber MTP/MPO-PC (female) connector on one end, transitioning to eight LC Duplex (male) connectors on the other. This configuration is optimized for use with the latest 400G QSFP-DD transceivers, enabling high-density fiber patching between main distribution frames (MDFs) and intermediate distribution frames (IDFs). The 50/125 OM4 multimode fiber ensures low insertion loss and excellent back reflection characteristics, guaranteeing optimal performance for applications up to 100 meters at an 850nm wavelength. Constructed with a ruggedized 3.0-millimeter plenum-rated jacket, the N846D-01M-24CAQ is suitable for installation in air ducts and drop ceilings, adhering to strict fire safety standards with its low smoke and flame characteristics. The distinctive aqua jacket provides rapid visual identification as an OM4 cable, minimizing misidentification risks and potential downtime in complex cabling environments. Its design facilitates efficient and secure connections in high-density rack setups, simplifying cable management and optimizing rack space.
