Tripp Lite N48S-2M24L12-20 Mtp Lc Duplex Sm Fiber Panel

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N48S-2M24L12-20 is a preterminated fiber optic panel designed to provide high-density MTP to LC duplex single mode connectivity in structured cabling environments. The panel arrives factory-terminated and tested, eliminating field splicing and reducing installation time in data center and enterprise network deployments. It serves as a breakout solution between MTP trunk cables and LC duplex patch cords, bridging backbone fiber runs to active equipment ports. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the primary installers.

This panel is suited for enterprise data centers, telecom rooms, and high-density server environments where organized, high-port-count fiber management is required. It supports single mode OS2 applications and fits into standard 19-inch rack enclosures. The preterminated design is particularly useful in structured cabling projects where rapid deployment and minimal field labor are priorities.

Key Features

• Factory-preterminated and tested for reliable, plug-and-play installation
• MTP to LC duplex breakout configuration for high-density fiber distribution
• Single mode construction supports long-distance OS2 transmission
• Reduces field termination labor and associated error risk
• Designed for rack-mount deployment in structured cabling infrastructures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for standard rack-mount fiber enclosures accepting MTP trunk-to-LC duplex preterminated panel assemblies in single mode structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure specialists. Ensure all connected active equipment is powered down or ports are disabled before mating or disconnecting fiber connectors to avoid signal disruption and potential damage to optical transceivers. Follow TIA-568 and ANSI/BICSI guidelines for fiber handling, bend radius, and strain relief. Inspect all connector end-faces and clean with appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools before making connections.
