Panduit F92ERLNLNSNM009 Opti-Core 9m LC Duplex Single-Mode Fiber Patch Cord
The Panduit F92ERLNLNSNM009 is a 9-meter OS2 single-mode fiber patch cord engineered for high-performance data center, telecom room, and campus backbone applications. Built on Panduit's Opti-Core platform, this duplex LC jumper delivers the low insertion loss and mechanical durability commercial integrators need when interconnecting cassettes, panels, or active equipment across riser pathways. The yellow 1.6 mm jacket provides instant visual identification in dense fiber environments, while OFNR riser rating ensures code compliance for vertical cable runs between floors.
Key Features
- OS1/OS2 single-mode fiber — 9/125 µm core supports 10G/40G/100G Ethernet and long-distance runs up to 10 km at 10 Gbps
- Duplex LC connectors on both ends — industry-standard interface for SFP/SFP+ transceivers and high-density patch panels
- 9-meter (29.5 ft) length — ideal for cross-connect or equipment-to-panel connections in mid-size telecom rooms and data center rows
- OFNR riser-rated jacket — UL listed for vertical installation between floors without conduit
- Standard insertion loss spec — factory-terminated and tested for reliable link budgets
- Yellow jacket color — rapid circuit identification in multi-wavelength or multi-tenant deployments
- 1.6 mm cable diameter — tight bend radius tolerance for congested pathways and zero-U cable managers
Single-mode OS2 fiber is the backbone of modern enterprise and service-provider networks, offering the bandwidth and distance performance multi-mode cannot match. The 9/125 µm core supports wavelengths from 1310 nm to 1550 nm, making this jumper compatible with BiDi transceivers, CWDM/DWDM multiplexers, and standard 10GBASE-LR optics. Panduit's Opti-Core manufacturing process ensures each connector is epoxy-polished to sub-0.5 dB insertion loss, then inspected under 400× magnification — critical when your link budget accounts for multiple splice points or long campus runs. The duplex LC footprint is half the size of SC, letting you populate 144-fiber panels in a single rack unit while maintaining bend-radius compliance.
Nine-meter jumpers occupy the sweet spot between equipment-row patch cords and cross-connect trunk cables. Use this length to connect top-of-rack switches to MDA panels in the same aisle, bridge fiber distribution frames across a large telecom room, or run from a wall-mount enclosure to a remote antenna unit on a mast. The OFNR jacket meets NEC Article 770 requirements for riser spaces — install vertically through cable trays, J-hooks, or innerduct without expensive plenum-rated alternatives, provided the pathway doesn't penetrate an air-handling space. Yellow is the TIA-598-C standard color for single-mode fiber; in deployments mixing OS2 backbones with OM3/OM4 horizontal links, the instant visual distinction prevents accidental cross-patching that would create link failures.
Factory-terminated jumpers eliminate the field labor, consumables cost, and performance variability of on-site connectorization — especially critical in single-mode links where a 1 dB penalty from a poor polish can cut your reach in half. This cord ships ready to install: pull from the spool, route through your cable management, click into the transceiver and panel, then verify with an OTDR or optical loss test set. Meets or exceeds TIA-568-C.3, ISO/IEC 11801, and FOCIS-3/FOCIS-10 connector geometry standards, ensuring interoperability with any standards-compliant LC interface. For data center migrations, campus network upgrades, or any project where single-mode performance and riser-rated jacket are non-negotiable, the Panduit F92ERLNLNSNM009 delivers the factory quality and spec consistency that keeps your fiber infrastructure audit-ready.
