Panduit F8RNM5E5EANM010 864-Fiber OS2 Singlemode MPO Trunk Cable Assembly

Overview

The Panduit F8RNM5E5EANM010 is a pre-terminated 864-fiber OS2 singlemode trunk cable assembly, 10 meters (32.8 ft) in length, terminated with MPO Female connectors on each end. With 864 individual fibers consolidated into a single sheath, this assembly is engineered for high-density fiber optic backbone infrastructure in environments where rack space and conduit fill are at a premium. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer jacket satisfies stringent fire-safety requirements in enclosed spaces — in a fire event, the jacket won't emit toxic halogen gases or dense smoke, a critical distinction for data center and telecommunications room installations governed by EN 50266 or equivalent codes. The OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rating further qualifies it for vertical runs between floors without conduit. OS2 singlemode glass (9/125µm, ITU-T G.652.D) provides essentially unlimited bandwidth headroom — wavelength selection and transceiver upgrades determine speed, not the fiber itself, so this trunk supports 10G, 40G, 100G, 400G, and beyond without cable replacement.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Panduit's OptiJack and Opticom MPO fiber infrastructure — specifically compatible with Panduit high-density MPO cassettes, modules, and panels (such as the FHMD and FHD series frames) that accept standard IEC 61754-7 MPO Female connectors. The OS2 singlemode glass and MPO Female interface are also cross-compatible with third-party MTP/MPO cassette systems from vendors including Corning, CommScope/Systimax, and Belden, provided the mating hardware accepts standard MPO Female push/pull connectors. Confirm cassette polarity method (Type A, B, or C) before ordering — trunk polarity must match the installed cassette scheme to avoid crossed pairs at the far end. Standards compliance to TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ITU-T G.652.D ensures interoperability across compliant structured cabling plant designs.

Installation Notes

At 864 fibers, this trunk will have significant physical weight and minimum bend radius requirements — do not route around tight corners or through undersized conduit. Verify pulling tension limits before installation in conduit runs; the LSZH jacket reduces lubricity compared to standard PVC. MPO Female connectors require a corresponding MPO Male adapter or cassette port — do not attempt to mate Female-to-Female without an intermediate adapter. The 10m fixed length suits top-of-rack to mid-row or cross-row runs in standard data hall layouts; measure actual cable path (not straight-line distance) before deployment to confirm fit.
