Panduit FS2EPKFLNNFM005 OM4+ Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FS2EPKFLNNFM005 is a duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable built to OM4+ performance standards. It features a 1.6mm jacketed design with polished (PC) end-face finish and LC keyed connectors on both ends. The OFNP (optical fiber nonconductive plenum) rating qualifies it for installation in plenum air-handling spaces without additional conduit. This patch cable is used by structured cabling installers and network technicians to establish high-density fiber connections in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise LAN environments.

This cable is suited for high-bandwidth multimode applications including 10 Gigabit, 40 Gigabit, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet runs over short to moderate distances. The keyed LC connector design helps prevent mismatched polarity connections in high-density patching environments. The 2-fiber duplex configuration supports standard bidirectional data transmission, and the plenum-rated jacket makes it appropriate for above-ceiling or open-plenum pathway installations where fire code compliance is required.

Key Features

• OM4+ multimode fiber for extended reach at 10G, 40G, and 100G data rates
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket meets fire code requirements for open air-handling spaces
• LC keyed connectors help prevent incorrect polarity insertions in dense patch panels
• PC (physical contact) polished end faces reduce insertion loss and back-reflection
• 1.6mm duplex jacket construction provides flexibility in tight cable management spaces
• 2-fiber configuration supports standard full-duplex optical transmission

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental patch cord for structured cabling systems utilizing LC-keyed multimode fiber patch panels and equipment ports rated for OM4 or OM4+ fiber.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified structured cabling technician or low-voltage installer familiar with fiber handling best practices. Always inspect and clean LC connector end faces prior to mating to avoid contamination-related signal loss. Observe minimum bend radius requirements for the cable jacket to prevent microbend attenuation. In plenum installations, verify compliance with local building and fire codes, including NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 770 requirements for optical fiber cables.
