Panduit FW2RPU1U1NNM009 OM5 Lc Uniboot Fiber Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT FW2RPU1U1NNM009 is a 2-fiber OM5 fiber optic patch cord featuring a duplex LC uniboot connector and a 2mm jacketed construction rated for plenum-grade OFNP installation. OM5 multimode fiber supports wideband multimode fiber (WBMMF) applications, making this cord suited for high-density, short-reach data center and enterprise network runs. The uniboot design consolidates both fibers into a single connector body, reducing cable bulk at patch panels and switch ports. Licensed electricians and low-voltage data cabling technicians are the primary installers of this assembly.

This patch cord is used in horizontal and backbone cabling runs routed through plenum air-handling spaces where an OFNP-rated jacket is required by code. Typical applications include structured cabling in commercial office buildings, data centers, and campus network environments where OM5 multimode infrastructure supports 40G and 100G parallel optic or shortwave division multiplexing (SWDM) transmission. The uniboot LC interface is compatible with standard LC-duplex ports on switches, transceivers, and patch panels.

Key Features

• OM5 wideband multimode fiber supports SWDM and parallel optic applications up to 100G
• LC uniboot connector combines duplex fibers into a single compact connector body for high-density patching
• 2mm jacketed construction provides flexibility and reduced cable diameter in congested pathways
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket meets fire code requirements for air-handling space installation
• Polished PC (physical contact) ferrule finish reduces back-reflection and insertion loss
• 2-fiber duplex configuration for standard full-duplex transceiver connections

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard LC-duplex ports on OM5-compatible multimode switches, transceivers, and patch panels in plenum-rated structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage or data cabling technicians in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Route the patch cord through plenum pathways only where the OFNP jacket rating is required by local fire and building codes. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable to prevent signal loss or physical damage to the fiber. Inspect ferrule end faces for contamination before mating and clean with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool prior to connection.
