Panduit FX2ERLNSNSNM016 OM3 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FX2ERLNSNSNM016 is a 2-fiber OM3 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable featuring a 1.6mm jacketed construction with LC duplex connectors on both ends. Rated OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser), this cable is designed for structured cabling installations where riser-rated fire resistance is required. The physical contact (PC) polish on the connector ferrules provides low insertion loss and reliable signal transmission. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of patch cable to interconnect active equipment, patch panels, and fiber distribution units in data centers, telecom rooms, and enterprise network environments.

This patch cable is suited for OM3 laser-optimized multimode fiber applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and similar high-bandwidth network deployments. The OFNR rating makes it appropriate for runs within building risers and between floors where riser-rated cabling is specified by code. The duplex LC configuration is standard for small-form-factor transceiver connections found in modern switches, routers, and SAN equipment.

Key Features

• OM3 laser-optimized multimode fiber for 10 GbE and high-bandwidth applications
• Duplex LC connectors with physical contact (PC) polish for low insertion loss
• 1.6mm jacket diameter for flexible, high-density routing
• OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) jacket rating for riser installations
• 2-fiber construction for full-duplex data transmission

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use with OM3 multimode fiber optic systems utilizing duplex LC small-form-factor connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technicians in accordance with TIA-568 standards and applicable local codes. Clean ferrule end-faces with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating connectors to avoid signal degradation. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius specified for the cable diameter during routing and dressing. Avoid over-tightening cable ties or hook-and-loop straps around the 1.6mm jacket.
