Panduit F91ER1NB1SNM002 OS2 2m LC Simplex to LC/APC Riser Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit F91ER1NB1SNM002 is a 2-meter (6.5 ft) OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in network infrastructure. This specific assembly features a yellow, riser-rated (OFNR) 1.6mm simplex cable, terminated with an LC Simplex connector on one end and an LC/APC (Angled Polish Connector) on the other. This configuration is crucial for maintaining signal integrity in environments where precise optical alignment is critical, such as connecting network equipment or extending fiber runs where standard insertion loss is acceptable. It's built for commercial and enterprise deployments requiring dependable fiber connectivity.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any network equipment, transceivers, or patch panels utilizing standard LC Simplex and LC/APC Simplex fiber optic interfaces. The OS2 single-mode fiber type supports high-bandwidth, long-distance applications common in data centers, telecommunications, and enterprise backbone networks. It is suitable for use with devices requiring standard insertion loss specifications and riser-rated cabling.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is rated Riser (OFNR), suitable for vertical runs within a building's main communication pathways but not for use in air-handling plenums. The connectors are designed for standard LC port types; ensure dust caps are removed immediately prior to connection and reinstalled after disconnection to protect the polished fiber ends. The LC/APC connector requires careful alignment to ensure optimal performance and prevent back reflection.
