Tripp Lite Rigid Industrial IP68 Duplex Multimode Fiber Coupler (LC/LC) with Dust Cap, 10G Ethernet, TAA

The Tripp Lite N455-BC01-IND is a duplex LC-to-LC multimode fiber coupler built for places where ordinary patch hardware fails. Whether you are running cable along a factory ceiling, mounting gear on a warehouse wall, or wiring an outdoor control cabinet, this coupler keeps the link alive and clean without asking for special maintenance.

An IP68 seal surrounds the ports, blocking dust, grit, and water. The enclosure can even sit under 1.5 meters of water for up to an hour and still maintain a stable signal. A snap-on dust cap guards the connectors whenever the link is disconnected, so ferrules stay contamination-free in areas filled with metal shavings, sawdust, or blowing sand.

Inside, precision ceramic alignment sleeves hold the fibers steady and limit insertion loss to just 0.2 dB. That efficiency protects signal integrity on 10 Gb Ethernet backbones and other high-bandwidth services that depend on clean multimode paths.

Installation is simple. The coupler drops into most surface-mount boxes and standard wall plates, giving technicians a quick retrofit option when upgrading existing runs. Compliance with TAA and RoHS requirements makes it suitable for government projects and environmentally regulated sites, and Tripp Lite backs the hardware with a Lifetime Limited Warranty for long-term peace of mind.
