Panduit FW2ERLNLNSNM5.5 Fiber Patch Cable
Overview
The Panduit FW2ERLNLNSNM5.5 is a pre-terminated OM5 wideband multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for rapid deployment in high-density data center and telecommunications environments. Its 1.6mm jacketed construction with LC Duplex connectors on both ends simplifies installation by eliminating field termination, ensuring consistent performance for backbone and horizontal cabling needs. This cable meets Riser (OFNR) flammability standards, making it suitable for in-wall applications where plenum-rated cable is not required.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered to connect equipment with LC Duplex ports, commonly found in network switches, servers, and fiber optic transceivers. It is compatible with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant network infrastructure components. The OM5 wideband fiber type supports higher bandwidth applications, including short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) technologies, making it suitable for future-proofing network infrastructure.
Installation Notes
The 1.6mm jacket diameter allows for high port density. Ensure proper bend radius management to avoid signal degradation; a minimum bend radius of 1.6 inches (40mm) is recommended for this cable type. The LC Duplex connectors provide a secure push-pull latching mechanism.
