Panduit FZ23RSNSNSNM0.5 OM4 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FZ23RSNSNSNM0.5 OM4 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit QuickNet™ FZ23RSNSNSNM0.5 is a 2-fiber OM4 multimode patch cable featuring SC Duplex connectors on both ends. Designed for high-density environments, this cable provides a plug-and-play solution for connecting network equipment in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas. Its pre-terminated nature accelerates deployment, reducing installation time and potential errors compared to field-terminated fiber.

Compatibility

This cable is engineered for compatibility with standard SC Duplex ports found on network switches, servers, transceivers (like SFP, SFP+, QSFP+), and other network interface devices. It adheres to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability within compliant network infrastructures. Use this cable for backbone and horizontal cabling applications where high bandwidth and reliable connectivity are critical.

Installation Notes

The OM4 fiber type supports up to 400 Gbps Ethernet speeds over short distances, making it suitable for switch-to-switch or server-to-switch connections within racks or adjacent racks. The Riser (OFNR) flammability rating means it is suitable for use in vertical pathways between floors but not in plenums. Ensure proper bend radius management to maintain signal integrity; avoid sharp bends exceeding 30mm diameter.
