Panduit FRZ8PYYL011M028 OM4 Fiber Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit FRZ8PYYL011M028 is a factory-terminated OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cord designed for high-density network infrastructure. It utilizes an MPO-8 Male APC connector on one end and is intended for rapid deployment in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas where pre-terminated solutions minimize installation time and potential errors. This 28-meter cable provides the necessary reach for backbone or horizontal cabling runs.

Compatibility

This Opti-Core® cable is built to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment and structured cabling systems that support MPO-8 connectors and OM4 multimode fiber. It is suitable for use with equipment requiring high-speed data transmission up to 400GbE and beyond, common in modern data center environments.

Installation Notes

Ensure proper handling of the MPO connector to avoid contamination or damage to the APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish, which is critical for minimizing return loss in high-speed optical networks. The 28-meter length is suitable for fixed installations where cable pathways are established, preventing unnecessary slack that could impede airflow or create management challenges.
