Panduit F9TYP5EL2SAM080 OS2 12-fiber Mpo to Lc Trunk

Product Description

The PANDUIT F9TYP5EL2SAM080 is a pre-terminated OS2 single-mode fiber optic trunk cable rated for 12 fibers and plenum-rated OFNP jacket construction. It terminates with an MPO connector on one end and LC duplex connectors on the other, making it a practical solution for structured cabling installations where high-density backbone runs must break out to individual LC ports. The plenum rating meets air-handling space requirements per NEC Article 770. Licensed cabling installers and low-voltage technicians are the primary trades that handle this assembly.

This trunk assembly is suited for data center backbone infrastructure, enterprise LAN distribution frames, and telecommunications rooms where OS2 single-mode transmission is required. The MPO-to-LC duplex configuration supports fan-out to patch panels, switches, or transceivers. It is sold as a single unit and is well matched to structured cabling environments that use modular high-density fiber cassette or panel systems to manage backbone runs between equipment racks or MDA and HDA zones.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber construction for long-distance, low-loss transmission
• 12-fiber count in a single trunk assembly for high-density routing
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket approved for use in air-handling spaces
• MPO connector on one end with LC duplex breakout connectors on the other
• Pre-terminated factory assembly reduces field termination labor and error

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style pre-terminated trunk cable for use with high-density OS2 single-mode fiber optic panel and cassette systems utilizing MPO and LC duplex interfaces.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling technicians and licensed fiber installers typically handle trunk cable deployment. Before installation, verify that all connected equipment and patch panels are powered down or that active fiber ports are disabled to avoid laser exposure. Follow TIA-568 bend-radius minimums for OS2 single-mode cable to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. NEC Article 770 governs optical fiber cable routing and plenum-space requirements in the United States.
