Panduit FS2EPKBLNNBM030 OM4+ Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FS2EPKBLNNBM030 is a 2-fiber duplex OM4+ fiber optic patch cable with LC keyed connectors, rated for plenum-grade OFNP jacket use. It features a 1.6mm cordage diameter and physical contact (PC) polished ferrules, making it suited for high-density structured cabling environments. The keyed LC connector design prevents cross-connection errors in installations where multiple fiber types share the same panel or switch. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of cord in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise backbone or horizontal runs.

This patch cable is designed for use with OM4+ multimode fiber infrastructure. The OFNP plenum rating makes it appropriate for air-handling spaces and plenum ceiling installations where fire and smoke propagation codes apply. The 1.6mm slim-diameter construction supports high port-density patching in switch panels and fiber enclosures. It ships as a single unit and is well suited for structured cabling projects following ANSI/TIA-568 standards for multimode fiber.

Key Features

• OM4+ multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth, short-reach applications including 40G and 100G Ethernet
• Duplex 2-fiber construction for bidirectional transceiver compatibility
• Keyed LC connectors prevent incorrect mating with non-keyed or different fiber-type ports
• OFNP plenum-rated outer jacket meets fire and smoke code requirements for air-handling spaces
• 1.6mm cordage diameter allows tight routing in high-density patch environments
• Physical contact (PC) ferrule polish minimizes back-reflection and insertion loss

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with OM4+ multimode fiber optic panels, transceivers, and equipment ports equipped with keyed LC duplex ports in plenum-rated structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 fiber optic standards. Deactivate or power down active transceivers before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords to avoid eye-safety hazards from laser sources. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cordage during routing, as overbending can cause signal loss or physical damage to the fiber. Inspect ferrule end-faces for contamination and clean per IEC 61300-3-35 guidelines before mating.
