Panduit F91ERANB1SNM010 Opti-Core® 1-Fiber Patch Cord

Overview

The Panduit F91ERANB1SNM010 is a 10-meter OS2 simplex fiber optic patch cord designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems. Featuring a SC/APC simplex connector on one end and an LC/APC simplex connector on the other, this cord is built with a 1.6mm Riser (OFNR) rated jacket, making it suitable for vertical runs within commercial buildings where plenum-rated cable is not required. This specific assembly addresses the need for clean signal interconnections between network devices, such as transceivers, switches, or patch panels, ensuring minimal signal loss.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any network equipment or fiber optic patch panels requiring simplex OS2 fiber connections with SC/APC (green) and LC/APC (green) connectors. The OS2 fiber type supports single-mode transmission, ideal for longer distances or higher bandwidth applications compared to multimode fiber. The Riser (OFNR) rating indicates it's approved for use in non-plenum building spaces, commonly found in data closets, telecommunication rooms, and between network distribution points.

Installation Notes

The 1.6mm cable jacket offers a balance between flexibility and durability. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to maintain optimal performance and prevent damage. The SC/APC and LC/APC connectors are designed for precise alignment and low back reflection, critical for sensitive optical networks. The Riser (OFNR) rating means it can be used in vertical pathways within a building, but not in air handling spaces. Always adhere to bend radius guidelines for OS2 fiber to prevent signal degradation; a minimum bend radius of 1.0 inch (25.4mm) is recommended for this cable diameter.
