Panduit OM4 8F 4:1 CONV LSZH MPO-M TO L - FZ8RL8NQSVNM009

Panduit FZ8RL8NQSVNM009 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Panduit FZ8RL8NQSVNM009 is an 8-fiber, OM4, MPO-to-LC conversion cable designed for high-density fiber infrastructure. It consolidates four 2-fiber LC connections into a single 8-fiber MPO connector, simplifying trunking and reducing cable bulk in environments where space is at a premium. This cable is critical for efficient patch panel management and backbone connectivity in data centers and enterprise networks. The FZ8RL8NNM009 model features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, providing enhanced safety in plenum spaces or areas with strict fire code requirements.

Compatibility

This conversion cable is engineered to interface with standard MPO/MTP trunk cables and LC patch panels or equipment ports. It's suitable for use with any OM4 fiber optic infrastructure, supporting 40GbE (QSFP+ to 4x10GbE SFP+) and 100GbE (QSFP28 to 4x25GbE SFP28) applications where a 4:1 fiber breakout is required. It is compatible with Panduit's extensive line of fiber optic enclosures, patch panels, and trunk assemblies, as well as third-party equipment utilizing MPO and LC connectors.

Installation Notes

Ensure proper connector keying (key-up to key-down) when mating the MPO connector to maintain correct polarity. The LSZH jacket requires careful handling during termination to avoid damage. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 1 inch (25mm) to prevent signal degradation. Use appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools before and after connecting to ensure optimal performance.
