Panduit FS2EPKKKKNKM009 OM4+ Duplex Fiber Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT FS2EPKKKKNKM009 is a duplex multimode fiber optic patch cord built to OM4+ performance standards. It features a 1.6mm diameter cable jacket rated OFNP (plenum-rated, riser-and-plenum safe) and LC keyed connectors on each end. Polished (PC) connector end faces provide reliable low-loss connections in structured cabling systems. This patch cord is intended for use in data center, enterprise LAN, and backbone fiber infrastructure where high-bandwidth multimode links are required. Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure professionals.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and backbone runs in plenum airspace environments where fire code requires OFNP-rated cabling. The LC keyed connector design helps prevent incorrect polarity insertion in high-density fiber panels. Typical applications include switch-to-patch-panel connections, cross-connects in fiber distribution frames, and equipment room to telecommunications room links in multimode OM4+ systems.

Key Features

• OM4+ multimode fiber rating supports high-bandwidth applications including 40GbE and 100GbE over multimode infrastructure
• OFNP plenum-rated outer jacket meets requirements for installation in air-handling plenum spaces
• 1.6mm duplex cable construction provides flexibility in high-density routing environments
• LC keyed connectors prevent mis-mating and enforce polarity discipline in dense patch fields
• PC (physical contact) polished end faces reduce back-reflection and insertion loss at each connection point
• Sold as a single unit (EA), quantity one per package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with LC-keyed duplex fiber adapters and patch panels in OM4+ multimode structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Clean connector end faces with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating, and inspect with a fiber scope when possible. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing and termination. Plenum-rated installations must comply with applicable local fire and building codes, including NFPA 90A requirements for air-handling spaces.
