Description

Panduit F9UYPXRNNSNF050 FlexCore™ 24-Fiber OS2 LC Duplex Cassette Assembly

Pre-terminated fiber cassettes eliminate the cost, skill requirements, and reliability variables of field termination in high-density datacenter and enterprise backbone deployments. The Panduit F9UYPXRNNSNF050 delivers 24 strands of OS2 single-mode fiber in a front-access cassette with factory-terminated LC duplex connectors on a 50-meter tethered cable, plenum-rated for air-handling spaces. Built for Panduit's FlexCore™ ODF platform, this assembly combines tested insertion loss performance with the flexibility of an unterminated tail — you route the cassette where fiber counts matter, then terminate the breakout end to match your backbone or cross-connect topology.

Key Features

  • 24-fiber OS2 (9/125µm) single-mode capacity in a single cassette module
  • Factory-terminated LC duplex connectors on cassette side, tested for insertion loss and return loss
  • 50-meter tethered cable length supports flexible routing between distribution frames
  • Plenum-rated OFNP jacket meets NEC Article 770 for installation in air-handling spaces without conduit
  • Front-access design integrates with Panduit FlexCore enclosures for high-density patching
  • Polycarbonate housing (11.7mm H × 292.8mm W) fits standard FlexCore panel slots
  • Complies with TIA-568-C.3, ISO/IEC 11801, TIA-604-5 (FOCIS-5), TIA-604-10 (FOCIS-10), supports IEEE 802.3 Ethernet and ANSI T11.2 Fiber Channel
  • RoHS 2002/95/EC compliant for EU installations

OS2 single-mode fiber supports transmission distances up to 10km at 10GBASE-LR, 40km at 1000BASE-LX, and extended reaches for 40G/100G applications when paired with appropriate transceivers. The 9µm core diameter and tight modal dispersion characteristics make OS2 the standard choice for datacenter backbone links, campus distribution, and any application where future bandwidth growth or long spans are anticipated. Factory-terminated LC duplex connectors on the cassette end deliver consistent sub-0.3dB insertion loss, eliminating the variability and rework common in field terminations. Each connector is individually tested and documented before shipment — you're installing a known-good assembly, not gambling on a technician's fusion splice or epoxy-polish work under a raised floor.

The 50-meter tethered length gives you routing flexibility between main distribution areas (MDAs) and horizontal distribution areas (HDAs), or between equipment racks when floor plan constraints prevent direct overhead pathways. The unterminated tail end breaks out into 24 individual fibers, which you terminate to match your backbone architecture — splice to incoming outside plant cable, terminate to another cassette in a cross-connect model, or fan out to individual LC/SC connectors for direct equipment connections. This hybrid approach concentrates fiber density at the ODF while preserving field flexibility at the termination point. The OFNP plenum jacket eliminates the need for conduit in air-return plenums, reducing installation labor and material cost in raised-floor datacenters and drop-ceiling IT closets. Flammability and smoke ratings meet NEC 770.179(D), so inspectors pass the installation without plenum-box workarounds.

Panduit FlexCore cassettes install in seconds — slide the module into an open slot in a FlexCore enclosure, latch the retention clip, and route the LC duplex jumpers to your active equipment or patch panel. The front-access design means all connector access happens from the hot aisle or front face of the rack; no need to remove rear doors or work behind equipment when you're adding circuits or troubleshooting. Cassette-based architecture also supports incremental growth — deploy a 2U FlexCore enclosure with six cassettes (144 fibers) today, then add cassettes as port counts grow, rather than over-purchasing a 288-fiber panel and leaving half the infrastructure dark for years. The polycarbonate housing resists impact and provides bend-radius protection for the fiber fanout inside the cassette, and the compact 11.7mm height allows up to 12 cassettes per 2U enclosure (288 fibers in 2U, or 1,728 fibers in a 12U frame). For integrators managing multi-tenant datacenters or phased enterprise builds, this density-per-RU ratio directly translates to rack space savings and lease cost reduction.

Compliance with TIA-568-C.3 and ISO/IEC 11801 ensures interoperability with structured cabling systems worldwide, while TIA-604-5 and TIA-604-10 govern the LC connector physical interface and ferrule geometry. IEEE 802.3 support confirms compatibility with all Ethernet standards from 1000BASE-LX through 100GBASE-LR4, and ANSI T11.2 Fiber Channel certification makes this cassette suitable for SAN fabrics running 8GFC, 16GFC, or 32GFC protocols. Panduit's manufacturing process includes automated polishing, interferometric end-face inspection, and insertion-loss verification on every connector before the cassette leaves the factory — the test reports ship with the product. For projects subject to prevailing-wage labor rates or tight commissioning schedules, factory-terminated assemblies collapse weeks of field termination work into hours of cassette installation, and the labor-hour savings alone often justify the price delta over bulk cable and field connectors.
