Panduit FW2RPU1U1ONM009 OM5 Lc Uniboot Fiber Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT FW2RPU1U1ONM009 is a 2-fiber OM5 multimode fiber optic patch cord terminated with LC Uniboot connectors on both ends. The 2 mm duplex cable jacket is rated OFNP (optical fiber nonconductive plenum), making it suitable for installation in plenum air-handling spaces where fire and smoke ratings are required by code. The LC Uniboot design consolidates both fibers into a single connector body, reducing port density demands and simplifying cable management in high-density fiber panels. This patch cord is polished with a physical contact (PC) finish to minimize back-reflection at the connection point.

This patch cord is used in structured cabling systems supporting wideband multimode fiber (WBMMF) applications, including high-speed data center interconnects, campus backbone runs, and enterprise LAN environments. The OM5 fiber type supports short-wavelength division multiplexing (SWDM) and is backward-compatible with OM3 and OM4 installations. It is typically installed by low-voltage cabling technicians, data center infrastructure teams, or licensed telecommunications contractors working in commercial or enterprise facilities.

Key Features

• OM5 wideband multimode fiber supports SWDM4 and high-speed parallel optics applications
• LC Uniboot connector consolidates duplex fibers into a single footprint for high-density patching
• OFNP plenum-rated jacket meets code requirements for air-handling plenum spaces
• 2 mm duplex cable construction balances flexibility with durability in patch field environments
• Physical contact (PC) polish reduces insertion loss and back-reflection at mated interfaces
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual port replacements or incremental installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and field-use patch cord for LC-duplex fiber optic panels, switches, and transceivers supporting OM5 multimode fiber infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or fiber optic cabling technician in accordance with TIA-568 and applicable local codes. Clean all fiber end-faces with an approved fiber optic cleaning tool before mating connectors to prevent contamination-related insertion loss. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing, and avoid over-cinching cable ties against the jacket. Power down or disable active transceivers on the relevant ports before disconnecting or connecting patch cords where possible.
