Panduit FZ2RPU1ZNONM019 QuickNet OM4 LC Uniboot Plenum Fiber Cable

The Panduit FZ2RPU1ZNONM019 delivers factory-terminated OM4 multimode fiber in a 19-meter (62.3 ft) plenum-rated assembly, purpose-built for rapid datacenter and telecommunications infrastructure deployment. This 2-fiber cable features LC duplex uniboot connectors and OFNP jacket compliance, eliminating field termination labor while meeting air-handling space fire codes. OM4 50/125µm fiber supports 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR4 Ethernet at distances up to 150 meters, making this length ideal for intra-rack, rack-to-rack, and equipment distribution area (EDA) connections in structured cabling systems. QuickNet factory termination ensures consistent insertion loss performance and eliminates the variability and testing overhead of field splicing.

OM4 laser-optimized 50/125µm multimode fiber operates at 850nm wavelengths with significantly lower modal dispersion than OM3, enabling 40GBASE-SR4 and 100GBASE-SR4 transmission over distances up to 150 meters—sufficient for the vast majority of intra-building datacenter links. The factory-terminated LC connectors utilize physical contact (PC) polish for low insertion loss, typically measuring ≤0.35 dB per mated pair with return loss ≥-35 dB. This performance consistency eliminates the 0.5–1.0 dB variability common in field terminations and removes the need for OTDR testing or rework. The uniboot LC connector design consolidates both fibers into a single compact boot, cutting the connector footprint in half compared to standard duplex LC—critical when populating 96-port fiber panels or ultra-dense switch faceplates where every millimeter of port spacing matters. The 2mm round cable jacket further aids high-density installations by reducing bundle diameter and pathway congestion compared to 3mm zip-cord designs.

OFNP plenum rating ensures compliance with NEC Article 770 for installation in environmental air spaces, drop ceilings, and raised floors without requiring conduit—a mandatory requirement in the majority of commercial office buildings, healthcare facilities, and telecom central offices. QuickNet pre-terminated assemblies arrive ready to deploy: pull the cable, seat the connectors, verify link light, and move to the next drop. This approach eliminates the labor, tooling, and skill requirements of field termination (fusion splicing or epoxy-polish), cutting installation time per link from 30–45 minutes to under 5 minutes. In a 48-port fiber build-out, that's the difference between 24 man-hours and 4 man-hours—plus zero risk of contaminated end-faces, cracked ferrules, or failed continuity tests. The 19-meter length suits common datacenter row lengths, equipment distribution area (EDA) patch-downs, and entrance facility (EF) cross-connects without excess slack that complicates cable management or introduces microbend attenuation.

TIA-568.3-D and ISO/IEC 11801 compliance confirms this assembly meets commercial building telecommunications cabling standards for multimode optical fiber channels, including geometry, attenuation, bandwidth, and connector performance specifications. ANSI/TIA-942-B datacenter infrastructure standard alignment ensures compatibility with spine-leaf architectures, three-tier network topologies, and converged storage/compute fabrics common in modern enterprise and colocation environments. Typical deployments include 40G/100G server NIC to top-of-rack (ToR) switch connections, ToR to end-of-row (EoR) aggregation uplinks, and storage area network (SAN) interconnects where low latency and deterministic performance are non-negotiable. The aqua jacket color follows TIA-598-D coding for immediate visual identification of OM4 fiber, reducing the risk of cross-patching OM3 and OM4 links in mixed-generation environments. For integrators managing large-scale fiber deployments, QuickNet factory termination delivers the performance consistency and installation speed required to meet aggressive project schedules without sacrificing link quality or long-term reliability.
