Panduit FW2RLU1U1ONM046 OM5 2-Fiber LC Uniboot to LC Duplex LSZH Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2RLU1U1ONM046 is a 46-meter (150.9 ft) OM5 wideband multimode fiber patch cable from the QuickNet™ pre-terminated infrastructure line. It ships ready to install — no field termination, no splicing — making it the right pick for structured cabling deployments in fiber optic cabling environments where installation speed and repeatability matter. The 2-fiber LC Uniboot connector on one end and LC Duplex on the other handles the common scenario where you're connecting uniboot-based high-density panels to standard LC duplex switch or transceiver ports. At 150.9 ft, this cable spans typical inter-rack or MDA-to-EDA runs without mid-span splices.

OM5 wideband multimode (50/125µm) supports both legacy 10/25G optics and next-generation short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) transceivers — meaning this infrastructure investment doesn't need to be replaced when you migrate from 40G to 100G using SWDM4 optics. That's a meaningful distinction versus OM3 or OM4 in any network switching environment being planned for density upgrades.

The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket matters in occupied buildings and plenum-adjacent spaces: under fire conditions, it won't emit the toxic halogen gases that PVC jackets produce. Required by many European standards and increasingly specified in US data center cabling projects where personnel safety codes are enforced.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Panduit QuickNet™ pre-terminated cassette systems, patch panels, and high-density fiber enclosures accepting LC Uniboot and LC Duplex connectivity. Compatible with any IEEE 802.3 OM5-rated SFP+ or SFP28 transceiver (10G, 25G, 40G SWDM, 100G SWDM4). Meets structured cabling standards TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B — suitable for installations requiring documented standards compliance in telecom rooms, entrance facilities, and equipment distribution areas. The LC Uniboot end interfaces with uniboot-capable panels and adapters; verify your patch panel accepts uniboot LC connectors before ordering if the termination point is not a standard LC duplex port.

Installation Notes

Pre-terminated — no field polishing or cleaving required. At 46m (150.9 ft), route carefully to avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius; LSZH jackets are slightly stiffer than PVC at lower temperatures. Confirm polarity (Method A/B/C per TIA-568.3-D) before deploying — the Uniboot connector's polarity is set at the factory. Store coiled with a minimum 30mm bend radius to protect the fiber before installation.
