Tripp Lite N366-15M Duplex Single-mode Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N366-15M is a duplex single-mode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-bandwidth data transmission in structured cabling installations. Single-mode fiber supports longer transmission distances compared to multimode, making this cable well suited for backbone runs, telecom rooms, and data center interconnects where signal integrity over extended lengths is critical. Licensed electricians, low-voltage cabling technicians, and network infrastructure specialists are the primary installers of this cable type.

This patch cable is intended for use in commercial and enterprise environments where duplex fiber connectivity is required between active equipment such as switches, transceivers, media converters, and patch panels. The duplex configuration carries simultaneous transmit and receive signals over two fibers, supporting full-duplex communication. Typical applications include server room cross-connects, inter-building fiber links, and telecommunications closet patching.

Key Features

• Duplex single-mode fiber construction supports long-distance optical signal transmission
• Full-duplex operation via two-fiber configuration for simultaneous send and receive
• 15-meter length provides routing flexibility in telecom rooms and data centers
• Designed for structured cabling environments in commercial and enterprise settings
• Sold as a single unit for straightforward inventory and procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with single-mode fiber optic equipment including switches, transceivers, and patch panels that accept duplex single-mode fiber connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed electrician familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Inspect connector end-faces for contamination before mating, as debris is a leading cause of signal loss in fiber connections. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and do not route it through areas with sharp edges or pinch points. Refer to applicable standards such as ANSI/TIA-568 for structured cabling installation requirements.
