Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM026 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM026 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM026 is a 26-meter (85.3 ft) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic cable assembly. It features LC Duplex connectors on both ends and is rated OFNR (Riser) for vertical pathway installations. This pre-terminated cable is designed for rapid deployment in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas where high-speed, reliable fiber connectivity is critical for backbone infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable utilizes OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber, compatible with transceivers and equipment supporting 50/125µm fiber, including those for 40GbE and 100GbE applications (e.g., QSFP+ and QSFP28 optics) over short to medium distances. It is designed to meet TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring broad interoperability within standards-compliant network architectures.

Installation Notes

The Riser (OFNR) rating indicates suitability for use in vertical pathways within a building, but not in plenums or air-handling spaces where plenum-rated (CMP) cable is required. Maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x cable diameter (approx. 16mm or 0.63 inches for the 1.6mm jacketed fibers) during installation to prevent signal degradation or damage.
