Panduit FS2EPKKLNNKM003 Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit FS2EPKKLNNKM003 is a 3-meter (9.84 ft) OM4+ duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. It features a keyed duplex LC connector on one end and a standard duplex LC connector on the other, ensuring correct polarity and simplifying installation in environments requiring specific connection configurations. This cord is built with a 1.6mm jacket and carries an OFNP (Plenum) flammability rating, making it suitable for installation within air-handling spaces without compromising safety standards. It adheres to RoHS directives, confirming its compliance with environmental regulations.

Compatibility

This patch cord is engineered for use within Panduit's Opti-Core™ fiber optic systems and other structured cabling solutions utilizing duplex LC connectors. The keyed LC connector provides a unique physical interface, ensuring it pairs only with compatible keyed LC components, thereby preventing misconnections and maintaining signal integrity. It is suitable for high-speed networking applications that demand OM4+ performance, such as 10/40/100 GbE Ethernet, and is compatible with network equipment and patch panels supporting duplex LC connectivity.

Installation Notes

The keyed duplex LC connector requires alignment with its corresponding keyed receptacle to establish a connection. Ensure the cable jacket color (Gris internacional/International Gray) matches system color-coding schemes if applicable. The 1.6mm jacket diameter offers flexibility while providing adequate protection. The OFNP rating mandates installation practices suitable for plenum spaces.
