Panduit FW2ôFW2ERLNSNSNM011 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable
Overview
The Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM011 is a 36.1-foot (11m) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for rapid deployment in high-bandwidth environments. It features LC Duplex connectors on one end and SC Duplex connectors on the other, facilitating connections between network equipment like switches, transceivers, and patch panels. The cable's OFNR (Riser) rating makes it suitable for vertical runs within commercial buildings, supporting data center, telecommunications room, and equipment distribution area infrastructure.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered for use with OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber infrastructure, supporting applications requiring high data rates such as 40GbE and 100GbE. It is compatible with standard LC Duplex and SC Duplex ports found on network switches, servers, and optical transceivers from various manufacturers. Its TIA-568.3-D and ANSI/TIA-942-B compliance ensures interoperability within structured cabling systems.
Installation Notes
The FW2ERLNSNSNM011 utilizes 1.6mm diameter fibers within a riser-rated jacket. Ensure proper bend radius management during installation to avoid signal degradation; avoid sharp bends tighter than the recommended minimum (typically 10x cable diameter for multimode). The OFNR rating restricts its use to intra-building runs and not for use in plenums or risers requiring specific plenum-rated cables.
