Panduit FX8RP7NUSQNF005 OM3 8-fiber Round Harness

Product Description

The PANDUIT FX8RP7NUSQNF005 is an OM3 multimode fiber optic harness assembly featuring 8 individual fibers in a round plenum-rated cable configuration. This type of harness converts a single multi-fiber trunk cable into individual fiber legs, allowing technicians to fan out connections at a patch panel, switch, or distribution point. The plenum rating makes it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces where fire and smoke codes require low-smoke, low-flame cable materials. Network cabling contractors and data center technicians are the primary installers of this assembly.

This harness assembly is designed for structured cabling installations in commercial buildings, data centers, and enterprise network environments. The OM3 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 10 Gigabit Ethernet and similar short-reach optical transmission standards over standard multimode distances. The round cable form factor suits conduit runs and tray installations where a compact, organized bundle is preferred over flat ribbon-style harnesses.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber grade supports 10 Gigabit and higher-speed optical applications
• 8-fiber configuration for fanning out multi-fiber trunk connections to individual ports
• Round cable construction compatible with conduit and cable tray routing
• Plenum-rated jacket meets air-handling space fire and smoke requirements
• Factory-terminated assembly reduces field termination time and error

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style factory-terminated harness assembly for use with OM3 multimode fiber optic patch panels, switches, and distribution frames in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network cabling technician following ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and applicable local building codes. Power down connected active equipment before mating or unmating fiber connectors. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing to prevent fiber damage or increased insertion loss. Connector end-faces should be inspected and cleaned prior to connection using appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools.
