Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM042 Fiber Optic Cable

Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM042 Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM042 is a 42-meter (137.8 ft) OM5 Wideband Multimode fiber optic cable designed for high-density data center environments. Its plenum rating (OFNP) ensures compliance with building codes for air-handling spaces, making it suitable for telecommunications rooms, entrance facilities, and equipment distribution areas where rapid, pre-terminated infrastructure is crucial for efficient deployment. This cable utilizes LC Duplex connectors on both ends, facilitating straightforward integration into existing network equipment.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with network equipment featuring LC Duplex ports. Its OM5 fiber type supports applications requiring higher bandwidth and shorter wavelengths, making it compatible with modern high-speed networking standards and equipment. It meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ANSI/TIA-942-B standards, ensuring interoperability within compliant network architectures.

Installation Notes

The cable features a Uniboot/Unibea design, optimizing cable management by reducing the number of cables and connectors. OM5 fiber supports 40/100 Gbps Ethernet applications over distances up to 150 meters. Ensure proper bend radius management during installation, particularly in dense rack environments, to maintain signal integrity. The OFNP rating necessitates installation in air-handling plenums according to local building codes.
