Panduit FIVRA2X2LYL FiberRunner Inner Vertical Right Angle
The Panduit FIVRA2X2LYL inner vertical right angle fitting solves a recurring data-center problem: transitioning fiber bundles from horizontal cable tray to vertical ladder rack without violating bend-radius specs or creating service loops that block airflow. Designed for the FiberRunner 2×2 pathway system, this polycarbonate/ABS elbow mounts inline to create a 90-degree upward bend from straight horizontal routing. Pair it with the FOVRA2X2LYL outer vertical connector to complete plane changes in tight overhead-to-rack transitions. Yellow high-visibility finish simplifies pathway identification during adds/moves and helps field techs trace routes in densely populated hot-aisle layouts.
Key Features
- Inner 90-degree vertical transition for FiberRunner 2×2 fiber routing systems
- Polycarbonate/ABS construction — impact-resistant and dimensionally stable across -40°C to +60°C operating range
- NEBS Level 3 compliant per Telcordia GR-63-CORE for seismic, thermal, and EMC requirements in central-office deployments
- UL Listed under 2024A for communications cable routing assemblies
- Yellow finish for visual pathway tracing and cross-trade coordination
- 6.95" overall height maintains minimum bend radius for OS2 singlemode and OM3/OM4/OM5 multimode fiber per TIA-568
FiberRunner modular pathway systems separate structured fiber from copper and power distribution — critical in hyperscale and colocation environments where a single severed trunk can take down multiple racks. The FIVRA2X2LYL inner elbow handles the geometry where horizontal overhead tray drops into vertical cabinet distribution. Its 2.42" profile fits the 2×2 channel width, and the snap-together design lets you reconfigure pathways without tools as cabinet layouts evolve. Polycarbonate/ABS blend resists UV degradation under metal-halide work lights and won't crack during HVAC startups in winter commissioning.
NEBS Level 3 certification matters in carrier-grade telecom central offices and MSO headends, where earthquake-zone building codes mandate that all pathway hardware survive Zone 4 seismic events without fiber breakage. Telcordia GR-63-CORE testing validates performance under thermal cycling, humidity, and conducted/radiated EMI — the same battery of tests applied to the servers and transport gear the fiber connects. UL 2024A listing covers flammability and smoke generation, ensuring the assembly meets plenum and riser code requirements when installed with appropriately rated FiberRunner channel sections.
Ships as a single fitting; carton quantity is five for stock rooms managing multiple build-outs. Use this inner angle in combination with the FOVRA2X2LYL outer angle to construct smooth radius bends that keep insertion loss below 0.1 dB per connector pair and prevent kinking during high-count MTP trunk pulls. Compatible with all Panduit 2×2 FiberRunner straight sections, couplers, tees, and end caps — the yellow color-coding integrates with Panduit's six-color pathway scheme for logical/physical topology mapping in multi-tenant facilities.
