Tripp Lite 400G Multimode 50/125 OM4 Plenum Fiber Optic Cable, 16F MTP/MPO-APC to 24F MTP/MPO-UPC (F/F), Magenta, 5 m

The Tripp Lite N846D-05M-16CMG is a 5-meter OM4 multimode fiber optic cable built for network teams that need to move up to 400 GbE traffic inside a rack or across a row without fuss. It pairs a 16-fiber MTP or MPO connector that uses an angled physical contact with a 24-fiber MTP or MPO connector that uses an ultra-physical contact, so it drops straight into ports designed for QSFP-DD transceivers and other high-density hardware.

This cable maintains reliable performance up to 100 meters at the 850 nm wavelength, which makes it a practical link for cloud services, hyperscale data centers, enterprise cores, and telecom rooms. Engineers who are consolidating spine-leaf architectures or planning east-west traffic lanes can count on the low insertion loss and minimal back reflection to preserve signal integrity across every hop.

The magenta jacket stands out in crowded trays and ladders, reducing the chance of pulling the wrong line during moves, adds, and changes. Because the jacket carries a plenum rating, it can run through ceilings or other air-handling spaces without violating building codes. Integrated pull tabs let installers seat or release each connector quickly, even when the patch panel is packed tight.

At five meters, the cable reaches between adjacent racks or from the top of rack switch to middle-row aggregation gear without leaving excess slack. Tripp Lite backs the assembly with a lifetime limited warranty, giving operators confidence that the link will keep pace with future refresh cycles.
