Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM017 OM5 Patch Cable

Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM017 OM5 Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM017 is a 17-meter (55.8 ft) OM5 wideband multimode fiber optic patch cable. This specific cable uses LC duplex connectors on both ends and features an OFNP (Plenum) flammability rating, making it suitable for installation in air handling spaces. It's designed for rapid deployment in environments like data centers, telecommunications rooms, and equipment distribution areas where high-speed fiber connectivity is essential.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with network equipment featuring LC duplex ports. It is compliant with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring broad compatibility with compliant networking hardware. The OM5 fiber type supports high-bandwidth applications, including 40GbE and 100GbE, when used with appropriate transceivers and infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable's uniboot design simplifies management by consolidating two fibers into a single jacket with push-pull tab connectors. Ensure proper bend radius management to maintain signal integrity; avoid sharp bends which can exceed the minimum bend radius for OM5 fiber. The OFNP rating indicates it can be installed in plenum spaces above drop ceilings.
