Tripp Lite 40/100G Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Fiber Optic Cable (3x8F MTP/MPO-APC F/F), LSZH, Yellow, 30m (98 ft.)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N392B-30M-3X8AP is a 30-meter singlemode fiber optic cable designed to support high-speed 40G and 100G Ethernet connections in data centers and enterprise networks. Featuring 9/125 micron OS2 fiber and terminated with female-to-female 3x8-fiber MTP/MPO APC connectors, it ensures low latency and minimal signal loss for reliable, high-bandwidth data transmission. Its yellow LSZH jacket enhances safety by reducing smoke and halogen emissions in enclosed spaces while making cable identification straightforward.

Key features

• Supports 40G and 100G Ethernet links with backward compatibility for 10G and 25G equipment, allowing flexible network upgrades.
• APC-polished MTP/MPO connectors reduce back reflection and insertion loss, maintaining clean and consistent throughput even in dense port environments.
• Slim, factory-tested connector boots enable quick routing and removal without disturbing adjacent cables, ideal for crowded racks and patch panels.
• Yellow LSZH jacket provides enhanced fire safety by producing very little smoke and no halogens, suitable for spaces with limited airflow.
• 30-meter length fits well for switch-to-switch or rack-to-rack connections within enterprise data centers, telecom rooms, and campus backbones.

Connectivity and compatibility

This cable is designed to link high-speed network devices such as switches, servers, and storage area networks that require 40G or 100G aggregation. Its backward compatibility with 10G and 25G hardware ensures it can integrate smoothly into existing infrastructures while supporting future bandwidth needs. The female-to-female MTP/MPO APC connectors are industry-standard for multi-fiber connections, making it a versatile choice for modern data center environments.

Ideal uses and environments

The cable is well suited for enterprise data centers, telecom rooms, and campus network backbones where high-capacity, low-latency connections are critical. Its LSZH jacket makes it a strong option for installations in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces where fire safety is a concern. Network administrators upgrading top-of-rack switches or extending links between patch panels will find this cable meets both performance and practical installation demands.
