Panduit FRZ8PYYL011M024 OM4 Fiber Cable
Overview
The Panduit FRZ8PYYL011M024 is a 24-meter (78.7 ft) OM4 multimode fiber optic cable designed for high-density data center and telecommunications room deployments. It features MPO connectors with APC polishing, ensuring low insertion loss for critical network links. This pre-terminated cable simplifies installation by eliminating the need for on-site termination, accelerating network build-outs in environments like data centers, telecom rooms, and equipment distribution areas.
Compatibility
This cable is built to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, making it compatible with standard OM4 fiber optic equipment and infrastructure. The MPO Female connectors interface with MPO Male ports found on many fiber optic transceivers, patch panels, and equipment racks. Its OM4 (50/125µm) specification supports higher bandwidth applications than OM3, suitable for 10GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE links over shorter distances.
Installation Notes
The FRZ8PYYL011M024 utilizes MPO connectors with APC (Angled Physical Contact) polishing. This angled polish is critical for reducing back-reflection, which is essential for high-speed optical transmission and laser-based systems. Ensure mating connectors are clean and aligned correctly to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage. The cable jacket is UL-rated for plenum spaces, allowing for installation within air-handling spaces.
