Panduit FX23LSNSNSNM0.5 OM3 Fiber Cable

Panduit FX23LSNSNSNM0.5 OM3 Fiber Cable

Overview

The Panduit FX23LSNSNSNM0.5 is a pre-terminated OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density network environments. It utilizes SC Duplex connectors on both ends, terminating two 50/125µm fibers. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket ensures compliance with stringent safety standards in enclosed spaces, making it suitable for data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas where rapid deployment of reliable fiber infrastructure is critical.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with standard SC Duplex fiber optic ports found on network switches, servers, transceivers (like SFP, SFP+, QSFP+), and other networking equipment. Its OM3 fiber type supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 150 meters, aligning with IEEE 802.3ae and 802.3ba standards. It meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B requirements for structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

The LSZH jacket requires careful handling during installation to avoid damage. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 30mm for OM3 fiber to prevent signal loss or cable damage. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to guarantee optimal performance and signal integrity. This cable is intended for indoor, non-conduit applications where LSZH compliance is mandated.
