Panduit FS2RLU1U1NNM001 OM4+ Signature Core LC Uniboot Fiber Patch Cord
The Panduit FS2RLU1U1NNM001 delivers datacenter-grade optical performance in a space-saving Uniboot form factor. This 1-meter duplex OM4+ Signature Core™ patch cord features LC Uniboot connectors on both ends, ultra-low insertion loss optics, and LSZH jacketing for code-compliant installations. At 2.0mm diameter, it reduces pathway congestion compared to traditional 3.0mm duplex cords while maintaining 50/125μm multimode fiber performance rated for 40/100GbE applications up to 150 meters.
Key Features
- OM4+ Signature Core™ 50/125μm multimode fiber exceeds standard OM4 specifications for insertion loss and return loss
- LC Uniboot duplex connectors with integrated pull-boot reduce footprint by 50% vs. traditional LC duplex
- Ultra-low insertion loss optics maximize link budget for 40GBASE-SR4, 100GBASE-SR4, and emerging 400G standards
- LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) 2.0mm jacket meets IBC/NEC requirements for risers and limited plenum applications
- Aqua jacket color follows TIA-598-C color coding for immediate OM4+ fiber identification
- 1-meter (3.2 ft) length ideal for rack-to-rack, panel-to-switch, or switch-to-server connections in high-density environments
Uniboot LC connectors solve two persistent datacenter problems: port density and cable management. The FS2RLU1U1NNM001's single-body connector design occupies half the space of traditional duplex LC, letting you populate all ports on 1U 48-port switches without connector crowding. The integrated pull-boot allows polarity reversal in the field without re-termination—pull the boot, flip the fiber position, reseat—a critical feature when troubleshooting A/B polarity mismatches or adapting between Method A and Method B backbone architectures. The 2.0mm reduced-diameter cable further improves airflow and simplifies moves/adds/changes in cable-dense vertical managers and horizontal pathways.
OM4+ Signature Core fiber delivers measurably lower attenuation than baseline OM4 (typically 2.5 dB/km vs. 3.0 dB/km), which translates to longer reach or greater margin for 40G/100G links. In a 100GBASE-SR4 deployment with four parallel 25Gb/s lanes, every 0.1 dB of excess loss you eliminate buys back margin against future connector contamination, aging, or additional patch points. That margin matters in spine-leaf fabrics where a single bad connector can trigger lane re-balancing and performance degradation. Panduit factory-terminates and tests every cord to TIA-604-10 (FOCIS-10) and ISO/IEC 11801 standards, with insertion loss and return loss verified before packaging.
LSZH jacketing meets NEC Article 770 and IEC 60332-1 flammability requirements for limited-combustible and low-smoke applications. The halogen-free compound eliminates corrosive acid gas emissions during fire, protecting sensitive electronics in the same space—a code requirement in many international datacenters and increasingly specified by US colocation operators. The aqua jacket follows TIA-598-C OM4 color coding, ensuring instant visual identification during installation and troubleshooting. Combined with laser-etched length markings every meter, the FS2RLU1U1NNM001 supports fast, error-free deployments in time-sensitive cutovers and maintenance windows.
This cord is factory-terminated and tested by Panduit, eliminating the variability and rework associated with field terminations. Supplied as single units (10 per carton), it's stocked for immediate shipment to support emergency replacements, phased buildouts, or top-off orders. Backed by Panduit's manufacturer warranty, the FS2RLU1U1NNM001 integrates seamlessly with Panduit fiber cassettes, panels, and enclosures as part of a unified Signature Core structured cabling system designed for 25+ year performance in enterprise datacenters, telecom central offices, and broadcast facilities.
