Panduit FX23LSNSNSNM043 OM3 Duplex Sc Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FX23LSNSNSNM043 is a duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable designed for structured cabling and data network installations. Built with OM3-rated 50/125 multimode fiber, it supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet and beyond. The cable features SC connectors on both ends, a 3mm low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) outer jacket, and a polished PC (physical contact) ferrule finish. Licensed electricians, data cabling technicians, and low-voltage specialists typically install this type of patch cable in horizontal or backbone fiber runs within commercial and enterprise environments.

This patch cable is suited for use in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and commercial network infrastructure where LSZH jacket materials are required by code or building specification. The duplex SC configuration makes it appropriate for full-duplex transceiver connections on network switches, servers, storage arrays, and fiber distribution panels. Its LSZH jacket meets requirements for plenum-adjacent or enclosed-space installations where low smoke and halogen-free materials are mandated.

Key Features

• OM3 50/125 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data transmission
• Duplex SC connectors provide a full-duplex fiber connection in a single cable assembly
• 3mm LSZH outer jacket reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in the event of fire
• PC polished ferrule finish minimizes back reflection and insertion loss at the connector interface
• 2-fiber construction in a single jacketed assembly simplifies cable management

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with SC-port fiber transceivers, patch panels, and fiber distribution hardware in OM3 multimode fiber infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed electrician familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius and do not apply tension to the fiber during routing. Inspect and clean SC ferrules with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating connectors. Follow applicable local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards for fiber termination and labeling.
