Panduit FZ2RPU1U1NNM003 Fiber Optic Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit FZ2RPU1U1NNM003 is a 3-meter (9.84 ft) OM4 duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for high-speed data center interconnects. Its Opti-Core® construction and uniboot pull-boot LC connectors simplify cable management in dense environments by allowing both fibers to travel within a single jacket, reducing clutter and installation time. This cord is ideal for applications requiring reliable, low-loss connections between telecommunications rooms, main distribution areas, and equipment distribution areas within enterprise networks.

Compatibility

This patch cord utilizes standard duplex LC connectors, making it compatible with any networking equipment, transceivers (SFPs, QSFPs), and patch panels that support duplex LC connections. The OM4 fiber type ensures backward compatibility with OM3 infrastructure while providing enhanced bandwidth for 10/40/100 GbE applications. It is suitable for use with equipment from all major network hardware vendors.

Installation Notes

The uniboot design features a pull-boot connector that allows users to switch the polarity (A-to-B or A-to-A) without re-terminating the cable. The plenum (OFNP) rating indicates suitability for installation in air-handling spaces, meeting stringent fire safety codes. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to maintain optimal signal integrity and prevent performance degradation.
