Eaton N845-15M-12-MG Tripp Lite 40/100Gb OM4 Fiber Cable
Overview
The Eaton N845-15M-12-MG is a robust 15-meter MTP/MPO multimode fiber optic patch cable designed to support the demanding bandwidth requirements of modern data centers and telecommunication rooms. Engineered under the Tripp Lite Series, this OM4-rated cable provides the essential infrastructure for high-density, high-speed network connections, addressing the critical need for reliable 40 Gigabit and 100 Gigabit Ethernet transmission within complex IT environments. It facilitates seamless communication between critical network equipment, ensuring minimal signal loss and maximum data throughput. This cable leverages OM4 multimode fiber with a 50/125 µm core/cladding diameter, optimized for extended reach with 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR4 connections. Its 12-fiber MTP/MPO female connectors offer a high-density, compact solution, significantly reducing the physical footprint compared to traditional LC or SC connectors. The plenum (CMP) rated jacket ensures compliance with stringent fire safety codes, making it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces like ceilings, walls, and ducts, thereby providing both performance and safety. Ideal for connecting high-speed network components, the N845-15M-12-MG is commonly deployed for fiber patching between Main Distribution Frames (MDFs) and Intermediate Distribution Frames (IDFs). The inclusion of push/pull tabs on the connectors simplifies installation and removal in high-density environments, streamlining maintenance and upgrades. Its magenta jacket provides instant visual identification as an OM4 cable, an important factor for efficient cable management and troubleshooting in large-scale deployments.
