Tripp Lite 10Gb Duplex Multimode 50/125 OM3 LSZH Fiber Patch Cable (Mini-LC / LC) - Aqua, 3M (10 ft.)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N836-03M is a duplex multimode fiber patch cable designed to support 10 gigabit Ethernet connections over distances up to 300 meters at 850 nm wavelength. With a length of three meters (ten feet), it is well suited for linking adjacent racks, patch panels, or nearby servers without excess cable slack. One end features a Mini-LC connector compatible with Mini-LC SFP transceivers like the Brocade FC8-64, while the other end uses a standard LC connector for broad compatibility with switches and storage devices.

Key features

• Duplex OM3 50/125 multimode fiber enables high-speed 10 Gb Ethernet transmission over extended distances.
• Mini-LC to LC connector configuration allows seamless integration between Mini-LC SFP transceivers and conventional LC ports without adapters.
• Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) jacket reduces toxic fumes and corrosive gases in case of fire, enhancing safety in confined or ventilated spaces.
• Aqua-colored outer sheath provides clear visual identification, simplifying cable management in dense network environments.
• Compact 3-meter length minimizes clutter and optimizes cable routing in data centers and wiring closets.

Connectivity and compatibility

This cable is designed to connect devices equipped with Mini-LC SFP transceivers, such as the Brocade FC8-64, to standard LC ports found on switches, storage appliances, and other networking hardware. Its duplex multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications commonly found in enterprise networks, data centers, and storage area networks. The cable’s LSZH jacket makes it suitable for use in environments where fire safety and air quality are priorities.

Ideal uses and environments

The Tripp Lite N836-03M fits well in data centers, wiring closets, classrooms, and other spaces where high-speed, reliable fiber connections are needed without excess cable length. It is a strong choice for network administrators upgrading campus backbones, expanding server clusters, or patching storage area networks. Its safety features and clear color coding help maintain organized and secure installations in confined or densely populated network racks.
