Panduit FRZ8PHHY011M005 OM4 8-Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit FRZ8PHHY011M005 is a 5-meter OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density interconnects within data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas. It features MPO connectors on both ends, facilitating rapid deployment of pre-terminated fiber infrastructure where high bandwidth and reliable connections are critical for network backbone and storage area networks. This cable utilizes the Opti-Core® sub-brand.

Compatibility

This cable connects MPO Female ports to MPO Male ports. It is suitable for use in systems requiring OM4 fiber performance, including high-speed Ethernet (10GbE, 40GbE, 100GbE) and Fibre Channel applications. Ensure your equipment ports match the MPO Female to MPO Male configuration. Compliance with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards ensures broad compatibility with industry-standard networking equipment.

Installation Notes

The MPO connectors require careful handling to avoid contamination and damage. Polarity B configuration is standard for TIA standards, ensuring correct signal path for duplex communication. The 5-meter length provides moderate reach for rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections. Ensure proper bend radius management to maintain signal integrity, especially in dense installations.
