Panduit FW2U1U1NNM039 OM5 2F 2MM PC Ofnp LC Uniboot Patch Cable - FW2RPU1U1NNM039

Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM039 OM5 LC Uniboot Plenum Fiber Patch Cable, 39M

Overview

The Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM039 is a 39-meter (128 ft) OM5 wideband multimode fiber patch cable from the Panduit QuickNet pre-terminated cabling system. It carries two fibers on 50/125µm glass with LC Uniboot connectors on both ends and an OFNP plenum jacket — purpose-built for structured fiber optic cabling runs through air-handling spaces where fire code mandates plenum-rated materials. At 39 meters, this cable spans inter-rack and inter-row distances typical in large data center halls, eliminating on-site termination labor and the associated performance variability. The Uniboot design routes both fibers through a single connector boot, which cuts pathway fill roughly in half compared to standard duplex LC assemblies — a real advantage in densely loaded cable management trays and patch panels.

Compatibility

OM5 wideband multimode (WBMMF) per TIA-568.3-D is backward-compatible with OM4 and OM3 infrastructure, so this cable works in existing multimode plants as a drop-in. The LC Uniboot interface mates with standard LC duplex ports on transceivers, patch panels, and fiber adapter plates — compatible with Panduit QuickNet cassettes, MTP/MPO breakout modules, and any LC-duplex-equipped active equipment including 1G/10G/25G/40G/100G optical transceivers operating over multimode fiber. OM5 specifically supports short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) for 40G-BiDi and 100G-BiDi applications over two fibers, making this cable a forward-compatible choice for spine-leaf fabrics planning a bandwidth upgrade path. Meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B, covering both North American and international data center cabling standards.

Installation Notes

OFNP plenum rating is mandatory — not optional — in any cable pathway that doubles as an HVAC air-return plenum. Substituting a riser (OFNR) or general-use cable in a plenum space violates NEC Article 770 and will fail inspection. The Uniboot connector requires a push-pull tab release; confirm patch panel adapter plates accept standard LC Uniboot ferrule geometry before installation. At 128 ft, verify bend-radius compliance through conduit bends — OM5 50/125µm fiber maintains a minimum bend radius of approximately 30mm under load.
