Panduit F8RNM5E5EANM050 OS2 864-Fiber MPO Trunk Cable Assembly

Overview

The Panduit F8RNM5E5EANM050 is a pre-terminated OS2 singlemode trunk cable assembly carrying 864 fibers across 50 meters (164.1 ft) via MPO Female connectors. At this fiber count, it targets high-density fiber optic infrastructure scenarios — specifically data center main distribution areas (MDAs), entrance facilities, and telecommunications rooms where a single conduit run must deliver massive parallel bandwidth capacity. Pre-termination eliminates field-splicing labor and the splice-loss variability that comes with it, which matters when you're commissioning dozens of parallel trunk runs against a tight cutover window.

Compatibility

Designed for deployment in Panduit fiber infrastructure systems including OptiJack and OptiMOM high-density cassette and module platforms that accept MPO Female trunk interfaces. Connects to MPO-based patch panel systems, high-density cassette shelves, and modular fiber distribution frames from any vendor conforming to TIA-568.3-D MPO interface standards. The OS2 9/125µm singlemode fiber (ITU-T G.652.D) is compatible with 1G, 10G, 40G, 100G, and 400G single-mode transceivers — the fiber itself won't be the bottleneck as you migrate speeds. MPO Female connectors on both ends mate with standard MPO Male adapters; confirm your patch panel or cassette uses Male-polarity adapter sleeves before ordering. Standards compliance with TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ITU-T G.652.D ensures interoperability across multi-vendor network infrastructure deployments. LSZH jacket rating is required by code in plenum and enclosed-space installations across Europe and increasingly in US data center builds — verify your local code jurisdiction before substituting a non-LSZH alternative. OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-conductive Riser) rating supports vertical riser routing between floors without conduit in compliant building types.

Installation Notes

At 864 fibers, this assembly is a large-diameter, high-mass cable — plan your cable management pathway and bend-radius compliance before pulling. OS2 singlemode requires tighter cleanliness discipline than multimode; end-face contamination is the leading cause of insertion-loss failures on MPO trunks at this fiber count. Inspect and clean all MPO connectors with an appropriate MPO-grade ferrule cleaner before mating. Minimum bend radius must be observed both during installation and at rest — consult the Panduit installation guide for this assembly's specific radius specification. The 50m length is fixed; confirm rack-to-rack or room-to-room distance including pathway routing (not straight-line) before ordering, as field-shortening a pre-terminated trunk is not an option.
