High-density 9/125 singlemode breakout panel seamlessly and conveniently integrates 10Gb equipment with 40Gb networks or 25Gb equipment with 100G networks to meet current connectivity needs and future-proof your network in a cost-effective manner.

  • Total of 15 12-fiber MTP/MPO switch ports and 60 LC ports
  • Base8 wiring uses all LC ports—no dead ports as in Base12
  • Hardwired cassettes for 30% improvement in insertion loss
  • Easily identifiable color-coded yellow singlemode cables

Overview

The N48K-15M8L60S-B 9/125 Breakout Fiber Patch Panel not only integrates equipment with 10G and 40G speeds, but also provides a simple, flexible path from 25Gb to 100Gb as well as upcoming 50Gb to 200Gb speeds and beyond. The 1U chassis features five breakout cassettes. Each cassette contains 12 LC duplex ports and three built-in two-meter MTP singlemode cables for a total of 15 QSFP fiber switch ports breaking out to 60 LC ports.

Base8 wiring with built-in MTP trunks maximizes rack space and link performance, while enabling simple cable deployment and optimized harness mapping. The N48K-15M8L60S-B uses all 60 LC ports, meaning no dead ports as in Base12 wiring, with streamlined 1-to-1 port mapping. Eliminating the need for 12-fiber conversion modules results in a reduction of up to 50 percent in link attenuation.

Hardwired cassettes offer a 30-percent improvement in insertion loss with no separate MTP connection in the rear, resulting in longer duplex link distances. Color-coded yellow singlemode cables are easily distinguished from traditional aqua OM3 multimode fiber.

The front panel folds down to protect the LC patch cords, as well as provide wire mapping by matching each cassette’s labeled MTP cables to the LC clusters. Writing space on the inside panel lets you custom-label each port. Each panel is serialized and insertion loss data is available upon request via the unit’s serial number.
