Panduit FZ23LSNSNSNM4.5 OM4 Fiber Patch Cable
Overview
The Panduit FZ23LSNSNSNM4.5 is a pre-terminated OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in enterprise network backbones. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rating makes it suitable for environments where fire safety is paramount, such as data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas. This cable facilitates rapid deployment by eliminating the need for on-site termination, ensuring a clean and efficient installation process.
Compatibility
This cable utilizes SC Duplex connectors, compatible with standard SC ports found on network switches, servers, and fiber optic transceivers. The OM4 (50/125µm) fiber type supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications within these distances. It adheres to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant network equipment.
Installation Notes
The LSZH jacket material reduces the emission of toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, a critical consideration for plenum spaces or areas with strict environmental regulations. The duplex configuration allows for simultaneous transmit and receive signals over separate fibers, common in active network equipment.
