Panduit FZ2RPU1U1ONM004 Fiber Optic Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit FZ2RPU1U1ONM004 is a 4-meter (13.12 ft) OM4 duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for high-speed data center and telecommunications room interconnects. Featuring LC duplex uniboot connectors on both ends, this patch cord simplifies cable management by allowing both fibers to travel within a single jacket, reducing bundle size and improving airflow. Its Aqua color and Plenum (OFNP) flammability rating make it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces, ensuring compliance with building codes.
Compatibility
This Panduit Opti-Core® patch cord is designed for use within Panduit's fiber optic systems and general data center infrastructure. It connects standard LC duplex ports found on network switches, servers, transceivers, and pre-terminated cassette systems. The OM4 fiber type supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it suitable for demanding network backbones and storage area networks.
Installation Notes
The uniboot design features pull-boot connectors, facilitating easier insertion and removal from high-density patch panels and equipment ports. The 2-fiber, duplex configuration requires two adjacent ports on network devices or patch panels. Ensure proper cable management practices are followed to avoid kinking or exceeding the minimum bend radius, especially in dense rack environments.
