Panduit FW2ectFW2ERQ1Q1SNM023 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2ERQ1Q1SNM023 is a 2-fiber, 1.6mm diameter OM5 wideband multimode fiber optic patch cable, 75.5 feet (23 meters) in length. Featuring push-pull LC duplex connectors on both ends, this Riser-rated (OFNR) cable is engineered for high-density data center and telecommunications room deployments where rapid installation and reliable performance are critical. Its OM5 classification supports wavelengths from 450nm to 1300nm, enabling efficient operation for short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) applications and future-proofing network infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable is designed 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, servers, and patch panels within data centers, telecommunications rooms, entrance facilities, and equipment distribution areas. The LC duplex connectors ensure compatibility with standard LC ports found on most enterprise networking and surveillance equipment.

Installation Notes

The 1.6mm cable jacket with Riser (OFNR) rating makes this patch cord suitable for in-building vertical runs where plenum-rated cable is not required. The push-pull LC connectors facilitate quick and secure mating, reducing installation time and the need for specialized tools. Ensure proper bend radius management to maintain signal integrity, especially within high-density patch panel configurations.
