Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM022 OM5 Fiber Optic Patch Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM022 is a 72.2-foot (22-meter) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for high-speed data center and telecommunications room deployments. Its uniboot construction consolidates two fibers into a single cable jacket with duplex LC connectors on both ends, simplifying cable management and reducing bulk. This cable is plenum-rated (OFNP) for installation in air handling spaces, ensuring compliance with building codes. It's engineered for rapid deployment where pre-terminated infrastructure is essential for efficient network build-outs.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment, patch panels, and transceivers utilizing LC Duplex connectors and supporting OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber. It adheres to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant infrastructure. The OM5 fiber type supports short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) for increased bandwidth over existing infrastructure, making it suitable for 40GbE and 100GbE applications and beyond.

Installation Notes

The uniboot design allows for easy polarity reversal by simply rotating the connector, eliminating the need for manual re-termination or specialized tools for common polarity changes. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation. The OFNP rating mandates installation within plenum-rated pathways.
