Tripp Lite N845-02M-12-MG Mtp Mpo Fiber Patch Cable 12F

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE N845-02M-12-MG is a 12-fiber MTP/MPO multimode fiber optic patch cable with a 2-meter length, designed for high-density structured cabling applications in data centers and enterprise network environments. It serves as a trunk or interconnect cable between MTP/MPO cassettes, panels, and active equipment ports. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of cable during initial infrastructure builds or when reconfiguring fiber backbone runs. The 12-fiber configuration supports parallel optic transmission common in 40G and 100G network architectures.

This patch cable is suited for multimode fiber backbone and horizontal runs in data center, telecom room, and enterprise LAN installations. It connects MTP/MPO-based patch panels, fiber cassettes, and transceivers that require a 12-fiber interface. The 2-meter length makes it well matched for short rack-to-rack or panel-to-switch connections within a single enclosure row or adjacent cabinets.

Key Features

• 12-fiber MTP/MPO connectors on both ends for high-density parallel optic links
• 2-meter cable length suited for short intra-rack and inter-rack runs
• Multimode fiber construction compatible with 40G and 100G parallel optic transceivers
• Pre-terminated factory assembly for consistent insertion loss and reliable field deployment
• Designed for use with MTP/MPO patch panels and fiber cassette systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard interconnect for MTP/MPO multimode fiber patch panel and cassette systems requiring a 12-fiber interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling contractors or qualified network technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Inspect connector end-faces with a fiber inspection scope before mating, and clean connectors per IEC 61300-3-35 procedures to prevent contamination-related insertion loss. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing and dressing. Avoid over-tightening cable management rings or tie wraps, which can stress the fiber and increase attenuation.
