Panduit F91ER3NB1SNM008 OS2 1.6MM PC Riser SC/LC-APC Patch Cord
Overview
The Panduit F91ER3NB1SNM008 is an OS2 single-mode, simplex fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in enterprise and carrier networks. Its 1.6mm riser-rated (OFNR) jacket makes it suitable for in-wall and riser-shaft deployments where fire safety standards are critical. This 8-meter (26.2 ft) cord terminates in an SC Simplex connector on one end and an LC Simplex APC connector on the other, providing a standard interface for connecting network equipment like transceivers, switches, and patch panels.
Compatibility
This patch cord is compatible with standard OS2 single-mode fiber optic infrastructure. It connects devices utilizing SC Simplex ports to devices with LC Simplex APC ports. The APC (Angled Physical Contact) polish on the LC connector minimizes back reflection, which is crucial for high-speed data transmission and sensitive optical networking applications. It is suitable for use with equipment from any manufacturer that employs these connector types and fiber standards.
Installation Notes
The cable features a yellow, 1.6mm diameter jacket rated for Riser (OFNR) applications, meeting EN 60332-1-2 flammability standards. The SC Simplex connector uses a standard push-pull latching mechanism, while the LC Simplex APC connector requires a standard clip engagement. Ensure proper connector cleaning before installation to maintain signal integrity and prevent performance degradation. The standard insertion loss specification ensures reliable optical power transfer.
