Panduit F8ONM5ENNAAM050 OS2 576F Trunk Cable Ofnr Lszh

Product Description

The PANDUIT F8ONM5ENNAAM050 is a high-fiber-count OS2 single-mode trunk cable designed for large-scale structured cabling backbone installations. With 576 fibers in a single run, this trunk cable supports high-density fiber distribution between equipment rooms, telecommunications rooms, and data center zones. The cable is rated OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) and jacketed with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material, making it suitable for riser pathways and environments where flame spread and toxic smoke emission are code concerns. Licensed electricians, low-voltage cabling contractors, and data center infrastructure technicians are the primary installers.

This trunk cable is intended for indoor and outdoor transition runs in enterprise, campus, and data center environments. OS2 single-mode fiber supports long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission, making this cable appropriate for backbone links between buildings or across large floor plates where multi-mode distance limits are a constraint. The LSZH jacket rating makes it a fit for European code environments and domestic projects with strict smoke and toxicity requirements in occupied spaces or plenum-adjacent riser shafts.

Key Features

• 576-fiber OS2 single-mode construction for high-density backbone runs
• OFNR riser rating meets NEC requirements for vertical riser cable pathways
• LSZH jacket reduces flame spread and toxic smoke output in enclosed spaces
• Designed for indoor and outdoor transition applications
• Single-unit packaging for straightforward project quantity management

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style trunk cable for high-density OS2 single-mode fiber distribution systems using compatible MPO or MTP-style connectors in structured cabling backbones.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed electrician familiar with NEC Article 770 requirements for optical fiber cables. De-energize and lock out any active equipment in the pathway before pulling cable through conduit or riser sleeves. Avoid bending the cable below its minimum bend radius during pull, and use proper cable pulling lubricant and pulling grips rated for the cable diameter to prevent jacket damage or fiber stress.
