Model #: N422-10M

Mode Conditioning Fiber Optics - 10-meter (33-ft.) Mode Conditioning Patch Cable, LC/ST

Highlights

10 Meter LC/ST Mode Conditioning Cable

Run 1000Base-LX Gigabit Ethernet over MMF by offsetting signal loss

IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet Compliant

Description

Tripp Lites Mode Conditioning Cables are designed for use in Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-LX applications. They are fully compliant with IEEE 802.3z application standards. Mode Conditioning Cables are needed in applications where new high-speed Gigabit 1000BASE-LX routers and switches are being deployed into existing multimode plants. The need for this patch cord is due to the single-mode launch nature of the -LX or long-wave (1300 nm) transceiver modules used for Gigabit Ethernet. Launching a single-mode laser into the center of a multimode fiber can cause multiple signals to be generated that confuses the receiver at the other end of the fiber. These multiple signals, caused by Differential Mode Delay (DMD) effects, severely limit the cable distance lengths for operating Gigabit Ethernet. A mode conditioning patch cord eliminates these multiple signals by allowing the single-mode launch to be offset away from the center of a multimode fiber.

N422-10M specifications

The Tripp Lite N422-10M is a high-performance network patch cable designed to enhance connectivity in various networking environments. This cable is particularly suited for data centers, server rooms, and enterprise networking setups where reliable connectivity is paramount.

One of the standout features of the Tripp Lite N422-10M is its length of 10 meters (approximately 33 feet), providing ample reach for connecting devices that may be situated far apart. This long reach is ideal for applications where cable management is crucial, giving users the flexibility to connect servers, switches, routers, and other network devices without the constraints of shorter cables.

Constructed with premium materials, the N422-10M utilizes a high-quality Category 6a specification, offering data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps. This capability is essential for modern networking applications, including video streaming, large file transfers, and high-speed internet access. The cable supports bandwidths of up to 500 MHz, ensuring that it can handle the demanding requirements of today’s networking tasks without degradation in performance.

The Tripp Lite N422-10M incorporates advanced shielding technologies, including both foil shielding and twisted pair configurations. This design minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI), crosstalk, and signal loss, ensuring a stable and fast connection. This is particularly important in environments where multiple cables run in close proximity, as interference can significantly impact network performance.

Moreover, the cable features snagless connectors, which help prevent damage to the connectors during installation. The connectors are also gold-plated, enhancing durability and reducing corrosion over time. The cable’s flexible design allows for easy routing around corners and tight spaces, making installation straightforward and hassle-free.

Another notable characteristic of the Tripp Lite N422-10M is its backward compatibility with previous Ethernet standards. This means that users can connect to older devices without worrying about compatibility issues, making it a versatile choice for both current and legacy equipment.

In conclusion, the Tripp Lite N422-10M is a robust and reliable networking solution that combines length, performance, and advanced technologies. Whether for professional data centers or home networking setups, this cable is designed to meet the demanding needs of modern connectivity, offering both speed and stability for a wide range of applications.
