Panduit FS2EPKCKCNCM008 Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit FS2EPKCKCNCM008 is an 8-meter (26.25 ft) duplex fiber optic patch cord utilizing OM4+ Opti-Core™ technology. It features keyed LC connectors on both ends, ensuring a secure physical layer connection by preventing mispatching with components that do not share the same color code. This cable is designed for plenum spaces, carrying an OFNP (plenum-rated) flammability rating, making it suitable for installation within air-handling spaces in commercial buildings. The green cable jacket and keyed connectors provide visual confirmation of correct pairing within a structured cabling system.

Compatibility

This patch cord is designed for use within Panduit's structured cabling systems, specifically those employing keyed LC duplex connectors and OM4+ fiber optic infrastructure. It is compatible with network switches, servers, and other network devices that utilize standard duplex LC connectors. The keyed nature of the connectors ensures it will only mate with corresponding keyed ports, enhancing physical security and preventing accidental disconnections or incorrect pairings in high-density environments. It adheres to RoHS directive standards, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations for electronic components.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is 1.6mm in diameter, suitable for zipcord applications. The OFNP rating signifies it can be installed in plenum air spaces. The keyed LC connectors require alignment with the corresponding keyed ports on network equipment or patch panels to establish a connection. Ensure the color-coded connectors (green) are matched with the correct ports as per your network design to maintain system integrity and security.
