Tripp Lite 40/100Gb Fiber Breakout Patch Panel, 40Gb to 4 x 10Gb, 100Gb to 4 x 25Gb, 15 MTP QSFP to 60 LC Duplex OM4 50/125 Multimode Ports, 1U

The Tripp Lite N48K-15M8L60-B is a one-rack-unit fiber breakout patch panel that helps network teams turn each 40 Gb or 100 Gb QSFP port into four independent 10 Gb or 25 Gb LC links. Fifteen internal MTP connectors fan out to sixty LC duplex OM4 multimode ports, giving you the density needed for modern server rooms while keeping cable routing straightforward.

Because the panel follows a Base 8 wiring scheme, every fiber is put to work and no ports sit idle. The built-in cassettes are hardwired, a choice that trims insertion loss by roughly 30 percent compared with modular systems. That lower loss lets you stretch duplex links farther without adding extra MTP couplings or repeaters.

Installation is simple in any standard 19-inch rack. A fold-down front panel shields the connectors, provides room for labeling, and folds back when you need to map or clean fibers. The magenta OM4 cabling makes it easy to spot multimode runs at a glance, which reduces errors during moves, adds, or changes.

This panel suits enterprise data centers, campus distribution frames, and colocation cages where equipment generations often mix. It works seamlessly with QSFP+ 40GBASE-SR4 to SFP+ 10GBASE-SR and QSFP28 100GBASE-SR4 to SFP28 25GBASE-SR breakout applications, giving you a clear upgrade path as switch speeds increase.
