Panduit FHCWA-24-10U Hd Flex Cassette OM5 2 MPO/12

Product Description

The PANDUIT FHCWA-24-10U is an HD Flex cassette module designed for high-density fiber optic patching in structured cabling infrastructure. Built for OM5 wideband multimode fiber, this cassette integrates two MPO/12 trunk-side connectors and provides a pre-terminated, plug-and-play patching solution. It is engineered for use in data centers, enterprise backbone installations, and high-density server room environments where space-efficient fiber management is critical. Network technicians and structured cabling installers work with this hardware to streamline moves, adds, and changes in active fiber plant systems.

This cassette is suited for data center and enterprise network environments requiring OM5 wideband multimode fiber connectivity. The two MPO/12 trunk ports support 24-fiber trunk cables, making it appropriate for parallel optic applications and high-bandwidth backbone runs. It is typically installed in compatible HD Flex or high-density patch panel enclosures and frames as part of a modular fiber distribution system.

Key Features

• OM5 wideband multimode fiber support for high-bandwidth parallel optic applications
• Two MPO/12 trunk-side ports provide 24-fiber capacity per cassette
• Pre-terminated cassette design enables fast, tool-free plug-and-play installation
• Modular form factor integrates with high-density fiber enclosure systems
• Compact HD Flex housing maximizes port density in rack space

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard modular insert for high-density HD Flex fiber optic patch panel enclosures supporting OM5 wideband multimode cassette modules.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified structured cabling technician or licensed low-voltage contractor familiar with fiber optic termination practices. Power down or disable active transceivers on connected ports before handling fiber connectors to avoid eye hazard from laser sources. Handle MPO connectors with care and keep dust caps in place until the moment of connection. Follow TIA-568 and applicable local low-voltage cabling codes for fiber plant documentation and bend-radius management.
