Panduit FQXA-12-10U Fiber Cassette

Overview

The Panduit FQXA-12-10U is a QuickNet™ fiber cassette designed for high-density fiber optic system deployments. It provides a clean interface between MPO-12 male connectors and duplex LC connectors, facilitating structured cabling within network racks. This cassette is built for OM3 multimode fiber, supporting 50/125µm cable types and delivering reliable data transmission for enterprise and data center applications. The FQXA-12-10U simplifies fiber management by consolidating 12 fibers into a compact, rack-mountable unit.

Compatibility

This Panduit QuickNet™ cassette is compatible with Panduit's fiber optic panel systems and enclosures that accept MPO-based cassettes. It is specifically designed for OM3 fiber, ensuring optimal performance with corresponding OM3 patch cords. The duplex LC connectors interface with standard LC patch cords, commonly used for server, switch, and patch panel connections. While not specific to a single product line, it integrates into Panduit's broader fiber optic infrastructure solutions.

Installation Notes

The cassette utilizes a universal wiring method, simplifying installation. The MPO-12 male connector requires careful alignment during insertion into the corresponding MPO adapter or trunk cable. The ceramic zirconia material used for the ferrules ensures durability and precise alignment. The overall dimensions (10" H x 9.9" W) are designed for standard 10-inch wide Panduit fiber panels or enclosures, ensuring a secure fit and efficient use of rack space.
