Panduit FS2EPKHLNNHM001 OM4+ Duplex Fiber Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT FS2EPKHLNNHM001 is a 2-fiber duplex fiber optic patch cord built for high-bandwidth multimode OM4+ applications. Featuring a 1.6mm jacket diameter and LC keyed connectors with a physical contact (PC) polish, this patch cord is rated OFNP (optical fiber nonconductive plenum) for installation in air-handling spaces and plenum-rated environments. The OFNP rating satisfies the most stringent fire and smoke requirements in commercial and enterprise structured cabling installations. Network technicians, low-voltage contractors, and data center cabling professionals are the typical installers.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and backbone cabling runs in commercial buildings, enterprise data centers, and campus network environments where OM4+ multimode fiber is deployed. The 1.6mm duplex construction keeps bend radius tight in congested cable trays and patch panels. The LC keyed connector format helps prevent mismatched fiber-type connections in installations that run both singlemode and multimode paths in the same physical plant.

Key Features

• OM4+ multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth, short-reach applications including 40G and 100G links
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket meets NEC requirements for air-handling and plenum space installations
• LC keyed connectors reduce cross-connection errors between singlemode and multimode fiber paths
• Physical contact (PC) polish minimizes back-reflection and insertion loss at each mating interface
• 1.6mm duplex jacket reduces bulk in dense patch panel environments
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for precise inventory management

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord compatible with LC-port fiber optic patch panels, switches, and transceivers supporting OM4+ multimode fiber in plenum-rated structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage cabling contractors and network technicians typically install fiber patch cords as part of structured cabling systems governed by ANSI/TIA-568 standards. Always inspect and clean LC connector end-faces before mating using approved fiber optic cleaning tools. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the 1.6mm cable during routing or dressing. Confirm the receiving port and transceiver are rated for OM4+ multimode fiber before installation to avoid signal loss.
