Panduit FXTYP5EL2SAF120 Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Panduit FXTYP5EL2SAF120 is a 12-fiber, OM3, OFNP-rated trunk cable assembly designed for high-density interconnects in data centers and enterprise networks. It features an MPO connector on one end, breaking out to 6 duplex LC connectors on the other. This configuration is ideal for migrating from 10Gbps to 40Gbps or 100Gbps Ethernet standards where MPO connectivity is required at the equipment or patch panel side, and LC is used for transceiver connections. The FXTYP5EL2SAF120 simplifies cable management by consolidating multiple fiber runs into a single, manageable trunk.
Compatibility
This trunk cable is compatible with any system utilizing MPO (12-fiber, keyed correctly) to LC duplex connectivity. It is suitable for use with 40GBASE-SR4 (QSFP+) and 100GBASE-SR4 (QSFP28) transceivers that use an MPO-12 connector, and standard LC duplex interfaces found on network switches, servers, and patch panels. It is designed for use within Panduit's high-density fiber optic cabling infrastructure, including their QuickNet™ systems.
Installation Notes
Ensure MPO connector keying is correct (typically 'up' or 'down' orientation) for proper polarity. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius of 1.2 inches (30mm) to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. The OFNP (Plenum) rating indicates suitability for use in air-handling spaces, meeting stringent fire safety codes.
