Description

Panduit FQ3ZO-08-10NMBN Fiber Cassette

Overview

The Panduit FQ3ZO-08-10NMBN is a QuickNet™ fiber cassette designed for efficient conversion between high-density MPO and standard LC duplex connections. It facilitates the transition from 40Gbps MPO-based infrastructure to 10Gbps LC duplex ports, a common requirement in data center uplinks or aggregation layers. This specific unit uses OM4 multimode fiber, optimized for performance and reach within its intended bandwidth. The unit's polycarbonate housing ensures durability in rack-mount environments. The model number FQ3ZO-08-10NMBN is key for identifying this specific 8-fiber conversion cassette.

Compatibility

This cassette is engineered for use within Panduit's QuickNet™ fiber optic system. It accepts an MPO-8 male connector on the rear and provides two LC duplex adapters on the front. It is designed to work with MPO trunks and LC patch cords, enabling a 40Gbps (QSFP+) to 10Gbps (SFP+) transition. This cassette is typically deployed in Panduit's fiber optic enclosures and panels that support QuickNet™ cassettes.

Installation Notes

The cassette utilizes Method B polarity, which is critical for ensuring correct signal pathing between transceivers. Ensure your MPO trunk cable also adheres to Method B for proper link establishment. The MPO connector is male (pin) type, requiring a female (pinless) MPO trunk cable. The LC duplex adapters are Aqua colored, indicating OM4 fiber compatibility.
