Network cable for singlemode links

The Tripp Lite N368-05M is a duplex singlemode fibre patch cord built for computer networking. It connects hardware that requires 8.3/125 micron fibre with LC and ST interfaces. The 5 metre length suits rack-to-panel or cross-connect runs. Installers who need multimode fibre or different connector types should choose another cable.

Consistent loss on long runs

Every connector is insertion-loss tested at 0.2 dB typical and the result ships with the cable. Singlemode glass carries twice the bandwidth throughput of multimode cable over the same distance. The bevelled glass ends ease repeated mating without degrading the optical path. Performance stays stable across the full 15 foot span.

Riser-rated jacket for indoor routes

A yellow PVC jacket carries an OFNR rating for vertical shaft installation. Colour-coded shrouds identify transmit and receive fibres at a glance. The zipcord construction keeps the two strands together while allowing easy separation. No polymer fibre is used — only glass core and cladding.

Questions about this item

Does the 8.3/125 singlemode cable generate heat or draw power during continuous operation?

The passive glass fibre carries only light signals, so it produces no heat and requires no electrical power.

What ports must my equipment already have to use the LC and ST connectors on this patch cable?

One side needs an LC duplex port and the other an ST duplex port, both specified for 8.3/125 µm singlemode fibre.

Will the OFNR riser-rated jacket and 0.2 dB typical insertion loss work reliably with legacy singlemode gear I keep in the rack?

The cable meets FDDI and OFNR standards and each connector is tested at 0.2 dB loss, matching the performance expectations of older singlemode hardware.
