Panduit F8RNM5ENNABM030 864-Fiber OS2 Singlemode MPO Trunk Cable Assembly

Overview

The Panduit F8RNM5ENNABM030 is a factory-terminated 864-fiber OS2 singlemode trunk cable assembly, 30 meters (98.4 ft) in length, built for high-density fiber optic infrastructure in data centers, telecommunications rooms, entrance facilities, and equipment distribution areas. At 864 fibers in a single pre-terminated run, this assembly eliminates field splicing and connector termination labor — the primary source of installation error and schedule risk in large-scale structured cabling buildouts. The MPO Female connectors at each end mate directly into MPO-based cassette systems and patch panels, enabling rapid port activation without specialized fiber tooling on site. OFNR (riser) and LSZH dual-rated jacket satisfies both plenum-adjacent and halogen-sensitive environments where outgassing during a fire event is a design constraint — relevant in enclosed equipment rooms and any facility following IEC or European code standards.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Panduit OptiCom and FlexWheel high-density MPO cassette systems, MPO patch panels, and fiber distribution units that accept MPO Female connectors. The OS2 9/125µm singlemode fiber (ITU-T G.652.D compliant) is compatible with 10G, 40G, 100G, and 400G optical transceivers operating over singlemode infrastructure. Meets TIA-568.3-D, ISO/IEC 11801, and ITU-T G.652.D — compatible with any network switching or transport platform specifying these standards. OFNR/LSZH dual-jacket designation covers both North American riser applications and international/LSZH-required zones in the same cable run. Confirm that your MPO housing accepts Female MPO connectors and that your cassette polarity scheme (A, B, or universal) matches before ordering at this fiber count.

Installation Notes

At 864 fibers, this trunk requires careful route planning — bending radius violations at this fiber count cause measurable insertion loss across the bundle. Follow Panduit's published minimum bend radius for the specific jacket OD of this assembly. MPO Female connectors are keyed; verify connector key orientation (key-up/key-down) against your cassette or panel spec before pulling the cable through conduit or cable tray. The 30m length is fixed — pre-measure the route including slack loops at each termination point. LSZH jacket compounds are stiffer than standard PVC at low temperatures; if installing in an unheated space below 0°C, allow the cable to acclimate to room temperature before routing to reduce jacket stress.
