Tripp Lite

Tripp Lite N820-01M-TAA OM3 LC/LC 1m fibre optic cable

SKU CH-79QX-NRMSV

One-metre OM3 multimode fibre patch cable with duplex LC connectors, plenum-rated aqua jacket, supporting 10/40 Gb Ethernet up to 300 metres at 850 nm

  • Supports 10/40 Gb Ethernet up to 300 m
  • Laser-optimised OM3 fibre works with VCSEL sources
  • Duplex LC/LC connectors for high-speed parallel links
  • Aqua OFNP plenum jacket meets fire-safety standards
  • 1 m length suited for rack-to-rack connections

Application Scope

This LC-to-LC multimode fibre patch cable is built for 10 and 40 Gb Ethernet links in LANs, SANs and high-speed parallel interconnects. It suits data-centre, head-end and central-office installations that require OM3 performance. It is not for single-mode infrastructure or runs that exceed the 300 metre multimode reach.

Capacity and Headroom

The 50/125 µm OM3 core supports 10 Gb and 40 Gb Ethernet up to 300 metres at 850 nm using VCSEL or LED sources. Bandwidth scales with parallel optics for higher aggregate throughput. Beyond 300 metres the multimode design reaches its distance limit and signal integrity drops.

Thermals, Noise and Power

Passive fibre construction draws no power, generates no heat and produces no acoustic noise. The aqua OFNP plenum jacket meets fire-resistance requirements for drop-ceiling and raised-floor routing. No active cooling or electrical supply is needed in normal operation.

Highlights

  • Laser-optimised OM3 fibre works with VCSEL sources
  • Duplex LC/LC connectors for high-speed parallel links
  • Aqua OFNP plenum jacket meets fire-safety standards
  • 1 m length suited for rack-to-rack connections

Questions about this item

Will the 1 m OM3 LC/LC cable work with the 10 Gb Ethernet SFP+ modules already in my switches?

Yes, the OM3 50/125 µm multimode fibre is designed for 10/40 Gb Ethernet at 850 nm and connects directly to LC transceivers.

How can I confirm the link is running at the expected speed after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC interface counters — a clean 10 Gb or 40 Gb link will show zero CRC errors and the negotiated speed matching the module rating.

Does the cable come with any dust caps or cleaning tools, or do I need to buy them separately?

The cable ships with protective dust caps on both LC connectors; cleaning wipes and inspection scopes are sold separately.
