Panduit FX2ERQ1SNSNM014 OM3 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FX2ERQ1SNSNM014 OM3 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit QuickNet™ FX2ERQ1SNSNM014 is a 14-meter (45.9 ft) OM3 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-bandwidth applications within data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas. This pre-terminated cable utilizes push-pull LC duplex connectors, enabling rapid deployment and simplifying infrastructure setup where quick fiber connectivity is critical. Its 1.6mm jacket diameter and OFNR (Riser) flammability rating make it suitable for vertical cable runs within building infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with network equipment featuring LC duplex ports, common in high-density fiber optic environments. It supports TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant network infrastructure components. While not specific to a single vendor's equipment, its OM3 fiber type is optimized for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it compatible with a wide range of enterprise-grade switches, routers, and transceivers requiring multimode fiber connectivity.

Installation Notes

The push-pull LC duplex connectors facilitate a secure, snap-in connection without requiring special tools, streamlining installation in densely populated racks. The 1.6mm jacketed cable is robust yet flexible enough for routing within cable management systems. Ensure proper bend radius management (minimum 1.0 inch for OM3 fiber) to maintain signal integrity and prevent performance degradation. The OFNR rating indicates suitability for general-purpose riser applications within commercial buildings.
