Panduit F923RANSNSNM042 OS2 2-fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT F923RANSNSNM042 is a single-mode OS2 duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations. Built with a 3mm duplex jacket and 2-fiber construction, this patch cord supports low-loss optical signal transmission across backbone and horizontal fiber runs. It is suited for data centers, commercial buildings, and industrial network environments where reliable single-mode connectivity is required. Licensed low-voltage and datacom technicians install this cable type as part of structured cabling systems governed by TIA-568 and ISO 11801 standards.

This patch cable is used in single-mode fiber optic networks requiring OS2-rated glass fiber performance. Typical installation scenarios include fiber distribution panels, patch bays, switch-to-panel connections, and inter-equipment links in telecommunications rooms and data center environments. The 3mm duplex jacket provides added protection compared to 2mm cordage, making it appropriate for runs subject to moderate handling or movement. Commercial and enterprise datacom installers are the primary end users for this cable type.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber optic construction for long-distance, low-attenuation signal transmission
• 2-fiber duplex configuration supports simultaneous bidirectional data transmission
• 3mm duplex outer jacket provides durability and resistance to handling stress
• Factory-terminated patch cord format enables plug-and-play installation at patch panels and active equipment
• Sold individually as a single unit for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install patch cord for OS2 single-mode fiber optic structured cabling systems using compatible duplex fiber connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or datacom technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. De-energize or power down active equipment before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords to protect optical transceivers. Avoid sharp bends beyond the cable minimum bend radius, and keep connector end-faces clean using approved fiber optic cleaning tools prior to insertion. Do not use this cable in applications requiring OM-rated multimode fiber.
