Panduit FX2ERQ1SNSNM038 OM3 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FX2ERQ1SNSNM038 OM3 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit QuickNet™ FX2ERQ1SNSNM038 is a 38-meter (124.7 ft) OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for rapid deployment in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas. It terminates with LC Duplex connectors, providing a robust and efficient solution for high-bandwidth backbone connectivity where quick installation is paramount. The cable's OFNR (Riser) rating makes it suitable for vertical pathway installations within commercial buildings.

Compatibility

This cable is engineered to meet TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring broad interoperability with standard fiber optic networking equipment. The LC Duplex connectors are compatible with a wide range of network switches, routers, and transceivers that utilize this common form factor. Its OM3 fiber type supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it suitable for demanding network backbones.

Installation Notes

The push-pull connector design facilitates quick and secure mating without tools, reducing installation time and potential for error. The 1.6mm cable diameter with OFNR rating requires standard fiber optic installation practices, avoiding sharp bends that could exceed the minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Ensure connectors are clean before mating.
