Panduit OM5 2F 1.6MM PC Ofnr LC Dup/sc DUP Stea - FW2ERLNSNSNM048

Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM048 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2ERLNSNSNM048 is a 48-meter (157.5 ft) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density data center and telecommunications environments. It enables rapid deployment of pre-terminated fiber infrastructure, reducing installation time and complexity. This cable features LC Duplex connectors on one end and SC Duplex connectors on the other, providing versatile connectivity for network equipment.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use in applications requiring OM5 fiber connectivity, supporting 40GbE and 100GbE standards. It is compliant with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant network equipment and patch panels. The specific connector types (LC Duplex and SC Duplex) dictate its use with corresponding ports on switches, servers, and optical transceivers.

Installation Notes

The Riser (OFNR) flammability rating means this cable is suitable for use in vertical pathways within a building but not in plenums. The 1.6mm cable jacket diameter provides a balance between flexibility and durability. Proper bend radius management is critical for OM5 fiber to maintain signal integrity, especially at higher data rates. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal loss or damage.
