Panduit FSMP996Y OS2 96F I/O ARMORED STR CABLE P

Overview

The Panduit FSMP996Y is a 96-fiber, OS2 single-mode, armored fiber optic cable designed for high-density backbone connections in demanding environments. Its armored construction provides superior crush and rodent resistance, making it suitable for direct burial or installation in conduits where physical protection is paramount. This cable ensures reliable data transmission for surveillance networks, data centers, and enterprise backbones requiring significant bandwidth and long-distance reach.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with standard fiber optic termination hardware and connectors compatible with OS2 single-mode fiber. It integrates seamlessly with Panduit's extensive line of fiber optic enclosures, patch panels, and splice trays, as well as third-party equipment supporting LC, SC, or MPO/MTP connectors. Its 96-fiber count makes it ideal for high-density applications requiring aggregation of multiple network links or future expansion capacity.

Installation Notes

Due to its armored construction, the Panduit FSMP996Y requires careful handling during installation to avoid kinking. Minimum bend radius specifications must be adhered to, especially during termination and pulling through conduits. Ensure proper grounding and bonding of the armor to meet electrical safety standards. Use of a cable lubricant is recommended for conduit pulls to reduce pulling tension and prevent damage.
