Panduit F92EPKEKESEM004 OS2 Duplex Fiber Patch Cord Lc

Product Description

The PANDUIT F92EPKEKESEM004 is an OS2 single-mode duplex fiber optic patch cord with LC keyed connectors, a 1.6mm cable diameter, and an OFNP-rated (plenum) jacket. Designed for high-density structured cabling environments, this patch cord supports long-distance single-mode transmission with low insertion loss. The duplex configuration carries two fiber strands in a single assembly, making it suitable for full-duplex data links. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of cord to connect patch panels, switches, media converters, and other active equipment in both horizontal and backbone cable runs.

This patch cord is suited for commercial and enterprise network installations where plenum-rated cabling is required by code, such as in air-handling spaces and above-ceiling cable trays. The OS2 single-mode design supports high-bandwidth, long-reach applications typical of campus backbones, data center interconnects, and telecommunications rooms. The keyed LC connector format helps prevent cross-connection errors in high-density patch fields.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber supports long-distance, high-bandwidth transmission
• Duplex construction carries two fibers for full-duplex data links
• 1.6mm cable diameter suits tight-bend, high-density routing environments
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket meets fire and smoke requirements for air-handling spaces
• Keyed LC connectors reduce mispatching risk in dense fiber panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with OS2 single-mode LC-keyed ports in structured cabling systems meeting TIA and IEC single-mode fiber standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling contractors or network technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling guidelines. Before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords, confirm that all associated optical transceivers and laser sources are powered down or port output is disabled, as live laser energy can cause eye injury. Inspect and clean LC connector ferrules with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing and dressing.
