Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM024 OM5 LC Uniboot Plenum Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM024 is a pre-terminated, 2-fiber OM5 Wideband Multimode (50/125µm) patch cable from the Panduit QuickNet pre-terminated fiber system, measuring 24 meters (78.7 ft). It ships ready to install — no field termination, no fusion splicing, no polishing — which matters in data center environments where labor cost and uptime risk both scale with every connector you touch. This is the cable to reach for when you need a reliable, standards-compliant fiber optic patch cable run between structured cabling zones, active equipment, or patch panels in plenum-rated spaces.

OM5 glass (lime-green jacket per TIA standards) is backwards-compatible with OM4 and OM3 equipment but adds wideband support for short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) — meaning this cable can carry parallel 40G or 100G applications over a single duplex pair using four wavelengths simultaneously. If you're pre-building infrastructure now and expect density demands to grow, OM5 avoids a cable rip-and-replace later. At 24m, the FW2RPU1U1NNM024 fits most intra-row or inter-row equipment room runs without requiring a fusion splice mid-run.

The LC Uniboot connector format collapses the duplex pair into a single, slim housing with a pull-tab — useful in high-density patch panel environments where pulling standard duplex boots out of packed ports causes adjacent port damage. The Plenum (OFNP) jacket rating satisfies NEC Article 770 requirements for installation in air-handling plenum ceilings and raised floors without conduit.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any LC Duplex port equipment accepting 50/125µm multimode fiber, including LC-port switches, transceivers, and patch panels from manufacturers such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and HPE. The OM5 glass is backward-compatible with OM4 and OM3 transceivers (SFP+, QSFP+, QSFP28) commonly used in 10G, 25G, 40G, and 100G network switch deployments. Meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B — the three standards governing structured cabling in U.S. and international data centers and telecommunications facilities.

Installation Notes

OFNP (plenum) jacket rating qualifies this cable for installation in air-handling spaces without conduit under the NEC — verify your local AHJ accepts OFNP for the specific plenum zone before pulling. The LC Uniboot pull-tab is designed for extraction from high-density panels; use the tab, not the cable jacket, to seat and unseat connectors. At 78.7 ft (24m), confirm your channel length budget against the TIA-568.3-D OM5 multimode distance limits for your target data rate before routing.
