Panduit FW2ERQ1Q1SNM042 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FW2ERQ1Q1SNM042 OM5 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2ERQ1Q1SNM042 is a 42-meter (137.8 ft) OM5 wideband multimode fiber optic cable assembly. It features LC duplex connectors on both ends and is rated OFNR (Riser) for vertical cable runs. This cable is designed for rapid deployment in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas where high-speed, pre-terminated fiber infrastructure is required.

Compatibility

This cable assembly is compatible with any network equipment, patch panels, and transceivers utilizing LC duplex connectors and supporting OM5 wideband multimode fiber specifications. It meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability within standardized network environments. Use with equipment requiring 50/125µm OM5 fiber for optimal performance in high-bandwidth applications.

Installation Notes

The cable's Riser (OFNR) rating restricts its use to vertical pathways within a building; it is not suitable for plenum spaces without a plenum-rated jacket. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation and potential damage. The 1.6mm cable diameter with LC duplex connectors allows for dense cable management within racks and enclosures.
