Panduit FXTRL8NUHSNM007 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit FXTRL8NUHSNM007 is a 12-fiber, OM3 laser-optimized multimode fiber optic cable assembly. It features an MPO connector on one end, breaking out to 12 individual LC connectors on the other. This configuration is designed for high-density interconnects in data centers and enterprise networks, enabling efficient transitions from trunk cabling to active equipment ports. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket minimizes hazardous emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for plenum spaces and environments where safety is paramount. This 7-meter cable is critical for structured cabling deployments requiring reliable, high-speed data transmission.

Compatibility

This MPO-to-LC breakout cable is designed for use with standard MPO/MTP trunk cables and LC-terminated patch panels or active equipment. It is compatible with any network infrastructure requiring OM3 fiber performance, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) up to 300 meters, 40GbE and 100GbE (using parallel optics) up to 100 meters, and future higher-speed applications. It integrates seamlessly into Panduit's comprehensive fiber optic cabling systems and is interoperable with equipment from major network hardware vendors.

Installation Notes

When installing the FXTRL8NUHSNM007, maintain a minimum bend radius of 1.0 inch (25.4 mm) for the LSZH jacketed cable to prevent signal degradation. Ensure the MPO connector is clean before mating to avoid contamination. The breakout configuration requires careful management of the 12 individual LC fibers to prevent tangling and maintain orderly cable runs within racks and enclosures.
