Panduit F92RLU1U1ONM011 Opti-Core™ OS2 LC Duplex Single-Mode Fiber Patch Cable

The Panduit F92RLU1U1ONM011 is an 11-meter duplex single-mode fiber patch cord engineered for high-density data center and enterprise network deployments. Built on Panduit's Opti-Core™ platform, this cable features LC Uniboot pull-boot connectors on both ends, a space-saving design that reduces cable congestion in tight patch-panel environments. The 2.0mm LSZH jacket meets strict fire-safety requirements for indoor installations while the optimized insertion loss ensures reliable 10G/40G/100G transmission over OS2 9/125µm fiber.

Key Features

• LC Duplex Uniboot connectors with pull-boot strain relief on both ends (A-B polarity)
• OS2 9/125µm single-mode fiber rated for distances up to 10km at 10GBASE-LR
• 2.0mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket for plenum-equivalent fire safety
• Optimized insertion loss specification for margin-critical 40G/100G links
• 11-meter (36-foot) length suitable for cross-connect and intra-rack applications
• Yellow jacket for easy visual identification in mixed-fiber environments
• Factory-terminated and tested to TIA-568-C.3 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards
• RoHS compliant with full compliance to EU Directive 2002/95/EC

The Uniboot LC connector design consolidates both transmit and receive fibers into a single compact boot, cutting the required patch-panel space in half compared to traditional duplex LC cables. The integrated pull-tab mechanism allows tool-free connector release in dense MPO-to-LC breakout scenarios or crowded switch faceplates—critical when you're working in live production environments where accidental disconnects cost uptime. Panduit's optimized insertion loss spec (tighter than generic TIA limits) preserves link budget on cascaded connections: in a typical spine-leaf data center topology with multiple patch points between optics, every 0.1dB matters when you're running at the edge of transceiver sensitivity. The 2.0mm LSZH jacket meets IEC 60332-1 and IEC 61034 flammability and smoke-density standards, making this cable compliant for installation in air-handling spaces, under-floor pathways, and overhead cable trays where building codes prohibit PVC jacketing.

This cable is designed for premise entry points, telecommunications rooms, horizontal distribution areas, and equipment zones where OS2 single-mode fiber provides the backbone for 10GBASE-LR, 40GBASE-LR4, or 100GBASE-LR4 Ethernet links. The 11-meter length is purpose-built for cross-connects between distribution frames and active equipment racks, or for intra-row server-to-switch connections in structured data center layouts. In enterprise campus networks, it's commonly deployed to interconnect preterminated cassettes in main distribution areas (MDA), horizontal distribution areas (HDA), and equipment distribution areas (EDA) per TIA-942 data center standards. The yellow jacket provides instant visual differentiation from OM3/OM4 multimode cables (typically aqua) or OS2 cross-connect cables in alternate colors, reducing mis-patching risk during adds/moves/changes. Integration teams spec this cable when building out Cisco, Juniper, or Arista leaf-spine fabrics, HPE or Dell server clusters with redundant NIC teaming, or Avigilon/Genetec/Milestone VMS backhaul networks where IP camera traffic aggregates onto 10G fiber uplinks.

Panduit Opti-Core components carry a performance guarantee backed by full end-to-end testing at the factory: every cable is swept for insertion loss, return loss, and geometry per TIA-604-3 (FOCIS-3) and TIA-604-10 (FOCIS-10) connector standards before it ships. The duplex polarity follows Method A (standard straight-through) wiring per TIA-568-C.0 Annex A, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with structured cabling systems designed to ANSI/TIA-942 or ISO/IEC 11801-5 specifications. For integrators managing multi-building fiber backbones, surveillance NVR uplink consolidation, or access-control server redundancy paths, this cable delivers the insertion-loss consistency and mechanical durability required for 20-year lifecycle installations where field re-termination isn't an option.
