Panduit FX2ERLNSNSNM044 OM3 Duplex Fiber Patch Cord Lc

Product Description

The PANDUIT FX2ERLNSNSNM044 is a 2-fiber OM3 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cord designed for structured cabling and data network installations. Built with a 1.6mm diameter cable and LC duplex connectors on both ends, this patch cord supports high-bandwidth optical transmission in multimode fiber runs. The OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rating makes it suitable for vertical riser pathways within a building. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors use this cord to interconnect switches, patch panels, transceivers, and active equipment in telecommunications rooms and data centers.

This patch cord is suited for horizontal and vertical structured cabling applications in commercial and enterprise environments. It fits scenarios where OM3 multimode fiber infrastructure is already in place and a short-run connection is needed between equipment and the patch field. The LC duplex form factor is widely used in high-density fiber enclosures and modern active equipment ports. The OFNR rating permits installation in riser-rated pathways per applicable building and fire codes.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth applications
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for high-density panel and equipment connections
• 1.6mm cable diameter provides a compact, flexible form factor
• OFNR rating qualifies the cable for riser-rated vertical pathways
• 2-fiber duplex construction supports full-duplex optical transmission
• Physical Contact (PC) polish on ferrules reduces back-reflection and insertion loss

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for OM3 multimode fiber installations using LC duplex-style ports and patch panels in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or licensed data communications contractor. De-energize or power down active equipment ports before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords to avoid optical transceiver damage. Keep dust caps in place on unused connectors and clean ferrules with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating. Follow local building and fire codes, including applicable riser pathway requirements, when routing OFNR-rated cables.
