Panduit FAP12WEORORDLCZ 12 Position Keyed Adapter Module

Overview

The Panduit FAP12WEORORDLCZ is a 12-position keyed adapter module designed for high-density fiber optic terminations using LC connectors. This module addresses the need for organized and secure fiber management in enterprise data centers and telecommunications rooms, ensuring that only the correct patch cords are used in specific applications. Its keyed design prevents accidental cross-connection, a critical factor in maintaining network integrity and performance. The E-Orange color coding further aids in visual identification and segregation of fiber types or network segments.

Compatibility

This adapter module is engineered for use with Panduit's Fiber Adapter Panels (FAPs) and Fiber Optic Enclosures. It specifically accommodates 12 LC-style fiber optic connectors, supporting both single-mode and multimode applications. The keyed nature of the module ensures it mates only with corresponding keyed FAP housings and keyed LC patch cords, preventing unauthorized or incorrect patching. It is designed to integrate into Panduit's comprehensive structured cabling solutions, including the Pan-Net® and Net-Access™ product lines.

Installation Notes

Installation involves snapping the FAP12WEORORDLCZ module into a compatible Panduit Fiber Adapter Panel (FAP) or enclosure. Ensure the panel or enclosure is properly mounted and secured within the rack or cabinet. The keyed design requires alignment with the corresponding keyway in the FAP. Once seated, the LC adapters are ready to accept keyed LC patch cords. No specialized tools are required for module insertion, but standard fiber optic handling practices should be observed to maintain cleanliness and prevent damage to the adapter ferrules.
