Panduit FZ2RLU1ZNONM8.5 OM4 2F 2MM PC LSZH LC Uniboot/CS Connector

Overview

The Panduit FZ2RLU1ZNONM8.5 is a 2-fiber OM4 multimode fiber optic cable assembly featuring LC Duplex connectors. Its Uniboot design simplifies cable management by using a single cable jacket for both transmit and receive fibers, enabling push-pull mating for rapid deployment in high-density environments. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety and minimal smoke emission are critical, such as data centers and telecommunications rooms.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with LC Duplex ports on network switches, servers, and other data center equipment. It is compliant with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with equipment adhering to these specifications. The OM4 fiber type supports up to 100 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over shorter distances, making it ideal for backbone and horizontal connectivity within enterprise networks and data centers.

Installation Notes

The Uniboot design requires careful management to ensure proper polarity and prevent fiber damage. The LSZH jacket offers enhanced fire safety but may have slightly different bend radius limitations compared to standard PVC jackets; consult Panduit's general QuickNet™ installation guidelines for specific handling requirements. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation.
