Eaton N845-02M-8L-MG Tripp Lite 40Gb OM4 Fan-Out Cable
Overview
The Eaton N845-02M-8L-MG is a 2-meter (6.6-foot) OM4 multimode fiber optic fan-out patch cable engineered to support high-density 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) networks. Designed for robust performance in demanding data center and enterprise environments, this cable facilitates connections between 40GBASE-SR4 network equipment, enabling efficient data transmission over multiple fiber connections. Its specialized design addresses the challenges of high-speed data transfer and cable management within complex IT infrastructures. This cable features a female MTP/MPO connector on one end and eight male LC connectors on the other, allowing it to fan out a single MTP/MPO port to multiple LC ports. It fully supports 40GBASE-SR, utilizing four fibers to transmit at 10 Gbps in each direction. The inclusion of a premium-grade ceramic ferrule ensures optimal signal integrity for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and faster applications. Its Base-8 fiber compatibility also extends its utility to QSFP+ 40GBASE-SR4 and QSFP28 100GBASE-SR4 connections, offering a degree of future-proofing. Ideal for deployment in ceilings, walls, and ducts, the N845-02M-8L-MG features a plenum-rated (OFNP) jacket for compliance with strict fire safety codes in air-handling spaces. Its slim, space-saving uniboot design simplifies cable management within crowded racks and cabinets, while the distinctive magenta color aids in quick identification of OM4 fiber. Push/pull tab connectors enhance accessibility, making installation and removal effortless, even in high-density installations.
