Tripp Lite N424-05M Duplex Singlemode Fiber Cable 5M

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N424-05M is a duplex singlemode conduit-style fiber optic cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise network environments. Spanning 5 meters, this cable supports high-bandwidth data transmission over singlemode fiber, making it suited for backbone runs, patch connections between panels, and equipment room links. The conduit-style construction provides added mechanical protection for the fiber strands. Network technicians and low-voltage installers are the primary trades that deploy this cable in data centers, telecom rooms, and enterprise infrastructure builds.

This cable is intended for singlemode fiber optic runs in commercial and enterprise settings where a 5-meter duplex patch is required. Typical applications include connecting fiber distribution panels to active equipment such as switches, transceivers, and media converters. The conduit-style jacket makes it appropriate for installations where additional abrasion resistance or pathway routing is needed within equipment rooms or between adjacent cabinets.

Key Features

• Duplex configuration supports simultaneous bidirectional transmission
• Singlemode fiber for long-distance, high-bandwidth signal integrity
• Conduit-style construction adds mechanical protection for the fiber core
• 5-meter length suits equipment room and inter-cabinet patch runs
• SC/LC connector pairing supports mixed-panel installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard singlemode duplex fiber patch cable for use with SC and LC fiber optic ports on compatible switches, transceivers, patch panels, and media converters in enterprise network environments.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network technicians and structured cabling installers typically handle fiber optic patch cable deployment. Follow TIA-568 bend-radius guidelines to avoid signal degradation or physical damage to the fiber. Clean all fiber connectors before mating using approved fiber cleaning tools. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius and avoid pinching or kinking the cable during routing.
