40GbE to 10GbE Breakout Cassette
The Tripp Lite N482-3M8-LC12 is a factory-terminated breakout cassette designed for high-density fibre networks. It converts three 8-strand MTP male connectors into twelve LC duplex female ports using OM4 multimode fibre. The module supports 40 GbE internally and complies with IEEE 802.3ae and ANSI T11.2 requirements. Installation requires no tools and fits select Tripp Lite enclosure chassis.
Network engineers upgrading density
This cassette suits network engineers migrating 40 GbE backbone links to 10 GbE server or switch ports in a single rack unit. It is not for buyers who need single-mode fibre or direct MTP-to-MTP patching without a breakout. The module also does not suit installations lacking a compatible Tripp Lite N482-01U or N482-02U chassis for mounting.
Check chassis compatibility first
Before ordering, verify that your rack enclosure is a Tripp Lite N482-01U or N482-02U chassis, as the cassette installs only in those panels. Confirm your existing cabling uses OM4 multimode fibre with 8-strand MTP male terminations on the trunk side. Ensure the LC duplex patch cords you plan to connect match the twelve female ports provided.
