Eaton N484-12LC Tripp Lite 10GbE (x12 LC) Pass-Through Cassette
Overview
The Eaton N484-12LC is a high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) pass-through cassette, meticulously engineered to streamline fiber optic network connections within structured cabling environments. This essential component is designed for seamless integration into Tripp Lite’s N484-00U and N484-01U high-density fiber chassis, providing a robust solution for consolidating and organizing fiber runs in data centers, server rooms, and enterprise wiring closets. It addresses the critical need for efficient and reliable high-speed data transmission by minimizing cable clutter and simplifying infrastructure management, thereby enhancing operational efficiency and network reliability. At its core, the N484-12LC cassette features twelve LC duplex connections, facilitating up to 24 individual fiber strands. Each connection is rated for 10GbE, ensuring it meets the demands of high-bandwidth applications. A standout technical advantage is its ultra-low maximum insertion loss of just 0.35 dB. This figure is significantly below the IEEE 802.3ae maximum channel loss specification of <25 dB, which guarantees superior signal integrity and minimizes data degradation over the fiber optic link. Such low loss is paramount for maintaining optimal network performance and extending the reach of 10GbE signals. The cassette is compatible with both singlemode and multimode fiber optic cables, offering versatile deployment options to suit existing or evolving network infrastructures. Designed for straightforward implementation, this pass-through cassette boasts a tool-less installation mechanism, utilizing simple screw tabs for secure mounting and easy removal from compatible chassis. This feature drastically reduces installation and maintenance time, translating into lower labor costs. Furthermore, all connectors are factory-terminated, eliminating the need for time-consuming and often complex field terminations, which further boosts deployment speed and ensures consistent, high-quality connections. The housing itself is constructed from heavy-duty 1.0mm cold-rolled steel, providing exceptional durability and protection for critical fiber connections within demanding IT environments.
