What this cable is and who needs it

The Tripp Lite N820-05M is a 16 ft duplex multimode fibre patch cable with LC connectors on both ends. It is built for 10 Gb Ethernet links up to 300 meters at 850 nm and suits installers running short-reach backbone or SAN connections in racks or cabinets.

Practical limits of the OM3 interface

The 50/125 micron OM3 fibre supports 10 Gb speeds to 300 meters using VCSEL or LED sources at 850 nm. It is backward compatible with legacy LAN equipment, but the cable will not reach the longer distances that single-mode fibre achieves.

The spec that decides fit

The aqua LSZH jacket identifies this as OM3 multimode cable rated for low-smoke zero-halogen environments. If your project requires plenum or riser ratings, single-mode fibre, or a different connector type, this patch cable is not the correct part.

Questions about this item

Is the 16 ft length right for my rack, or should I use a shorter patch cable?

The cable is 16 ft long, matching the 5 metre specification; choose a shorter length only if your patch panel and switch ports are closer together.

What does the 10 Gb rating mean for actual throughput in my server?

It supports 10 Gb Ethernet up to 300 metres at 850 nm, so a 16 ft run will deliver full line-rate 10 Gbps with minimal loss.

Will the LC duplex connectors work with my OM3 50/125 multimode transceivers?

Yes, the LC/LC duplex ends are built for 50/125 OM3 multimode fibre and work with VCSEL or LED light sources used in standard 10 Gb transceivers.
