Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM038 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM038 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM038 is a 38-meter (124.7 ft) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density data center and telecommunications room deployments. It features LC Duplex connectors on one end and SC Duplex connectors on the other, terminated with a 1.6mm riser (OFNR) rated jacket. This pre-terminated cable accelerates infrastructure rollout by eliminating field termination, ensuring consistent performance for 40Gbps and 100Gbps applications.

Compatibility

This cable is engineered for use in environments requiring TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B compliant fiber optic infrastructure. It is suitable for connecting network equipment, switches, and servers within data centers, telecommunications rooms, entrance facilities, and equipment distribution areas that utilize both LC and SC connector types. The OM5 fiber type supports a wide range of short-wavelength applications and is backward compatible with OM3 and OM4 infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The 1.6mm jacket is suitable for standard patch panel deployments. The riser (OFNR) rating indicates it can be used in vertical pathways within non-plenum spaces. Ensure proper bend radius management to maintain signal integrity; avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum specified radius for OM5 fiber to prevent performance degradation. The cable's 38-meter length is ideal for longer runs between racks or across equipment rows.
