Panduit F923PANANSNM032 OS2 SC-APC DUPLEX PATCHCORD PLE

Overview

The Panduit F923PANANSNM032 is an OS2 single-mode, duplex fiber optic patch cord terminated with SC-APC connectors on both ends. This cable is designed for high-bandwidth, long-distance data transmission in enterprise and data center environments, ensuring clean signal integrity for critical network infrastructure. Its specific use case is connecting network equipment, such as switches or transceivers, where precise optical alignment and minimal signal loss are paramount.

Compatibility

This patch cord is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard SC-APC duplex fiber optic ports. It is suitable for use with transceivers (e.g., SFP, SFP+, QSFP) requiring SC-APC termination, and within structured cabling systems that utilize OS2 single-mode fiber. It integrates with equipment from major network hardware vendors where SC-APC duplex connections are specified.

Installation Notes

Ensure the SC-APC connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation or damage. The OS2 fiber rating supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 10 kilometers and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters, making it ideal for backbone and inter-building links. Avoid sharp bends (minimum bend radius of 10mm) to maintain signal performance.
