Panduit FX23LSNSNSNM049 OM3 Duplex Fiber Patch Cord Sc

Product Description

The PANDUIT FX23LSNSNSNM049 is an OM3 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for high-density structured cabling installations. Built with a 3mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, it connects two SC connectors in a duplex configuration, supporting high-bandwidth data transmission in environments where low-smoke, halogen-free materials are required. This patch cord is installed by network technicians and low-voltage cabling professionals in data centers, telecom rooms, and commercial building backbone or horizontal runs.

This patch cord is suited for OM3 multimode fiber infrastructures in commercial and enterprise environments. The LSZH jacket makes it appropriate for plenum-adjacent or enclosed spaces where fire code and air quality standards restrict the use of PVC-jacketed cables. It is commonly used to interconnect switches, patch panels, and active equipment in structured cabling systems. The duplex SC interface is a standard termination type found widely in 10G and legacy multimode fiber deployments.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber classification supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Duplex configuration with SC connectors on both ends for standard interconnect applications
• 3mm LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in enclosed or high-occupancy spaces
• 2-fiber construction in a single duplex cable assembly
• Sold as individual assembly (quantity: 1 each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for OM3 multimode fiber optic cabling systems using duplex SC interfaces in structured cabling environments.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage or network cabling technicians typically install fiber optic patch cords as part of structured cabling systems governed by ANSI/TIA-568 standards. Before installation, de-energize or power down active optical transceivers to avoid eye hazard from live fiber. Inspect and clean SC ferrules with appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools before mating. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable to prevent signal loss or fiber damage.
