Panduit F98RP6NQSQNF017 Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Panduit F98RP6NQSQNF017 is an OS2 8-fiber conversion cable designed to bridge MPO (Multi-fiber Push On) connectors to LC (Lucent Connector) interfaces. This cable is critical for high-density fiber optic deployments, enabling seamless transitions in structured cabling systems within data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunications infrastructure. Its specific configuration, featuring 8 fibers with a 4:1 conversion ratio from MPO to LC, supports applications requiring efficient breakout from trunk cables to individual LC ports on active equipment.
Compatibility
This Panduit conversion cable is designed for use with standard MPO/MTP trunk assemblies and LC patch panels or network devices. It is compatible with any system utilizing OS2 single-mode fiber infrastructure where MPO connectivity needs to be terminated into multiple LC connections. This includes, but is not limited to, high-density server racks, SAN switches, and blade server environments that require breakout capabilities from a single MPO connector to four duplex LC connections.
Installation Notes
Ensure proper connector alignment when mating the MPO connector to the trunk cable to avoid fiber damage. The LC connectors should be cleaned prior to insertion into patch panels or equipment ports to maintain signal integrity. Verify that the fiber type (OS2) matches the rest of the installed fiber optic infrastructure to prevent performance degradation.
