Panduit FZ2ERQ1Q1SNM002 Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit FZ2ERQ1Q1SNM002 is a 2-meter (6.56 ft) duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for high-speed data transmission in enterprise and data center environments. It features OM4 multimode fiber, offering a 50-micron core diameter suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and beyond, up to 400 meters. The aqua jacket indicates OM4 performance. This cable is ideal for interconnecting equipment in telecommunications rooms, data centers, and network distribution areas, ensuring reliable connectivity between patch panels and active equipment.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any standard LC Push-Pull connector interface. It is designed for use with Panduit Opti-Core™ systems and other network infrastructure components that utilize LC connectors, including standard patch panels, network switches, routers, and servers. The OM4 fiber type supports 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE applications over shorter distances compared to OM3, making it suitable for switch-to-switch or server-to-switch links within racks or adjacent racks.

Installation Notes

This patch cord features a 1.6mm (approx. 0.06 inch) diameter jacket and is rated 'Câble ascendant' (OFNR - Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser), meaning it meets flame-retardant and smoke-per-unit-length requirements for use in riser pathways in commercial buildings. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation or damage. The LC Push-Pull connectors provide a secure latching mechanism for reliable connection.
