Tripp Lite N370-03M Singlemode Fiber Patch Cable 3M

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N370-03M is a duplex singlemode fiber optic patch cable engineered for high-bandwidth, low-loss fiber connections in structured cabling systems. Built around an 8.3 micron core diameter, singlemode fiber, this cable supports long-distance signal transmission with minimal attenuation. At 3 meters in length, it is sized for equipment-room and data-center patching between optical transceivers, switches, patch panels, and other active or passive fiber equipment. Installation is handled by network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors working in telecommunications rooms, server rooms, and enterprise data centers.

This patch cable is suited for singlemode fiber infrastructure in both commercial and enterprise environments. Typical applications include connecting fiber-optic switches, routers, media converters, and patch panels where a short duplex run is required. The duplex configuration carries simultaneous bidirectional signal paths over two fiber strands, making it appropriate for standard full-duplex optical links. It ships as a single unit and is ready to install out of the packaging.

Key Features

• Singlemode 8.3 micron core fiber for long-distance, low-attenuation optical transmission
• Duplex configuration supports full-duplex bidirectional links over two fiber strands
• 3-meter length suited for in-rack and short equipment-room patching
• Factory-terminated connectors for plug-and-play installation with no field polishing required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental patch cable for singlemode duplex fiber optic infrastructure compatible with standard 8.3 micron singlemode fiber equipment and patch panels.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and network installers typically handle fiber patch cable termination and routing. Before patching, ensure all fiber end faces are clean using approved fiber optic cleaning tools, as contamination is the leading cause of insertion loss. Do not bend the cable tighter than its minimum bend radius, and do not expose the fiber to pinch points or sharp edges during routing. Follow applicable TIA-568 and local structured cabling standards for fiber plant documentation and testing.
