Panduit FZ23LSNSNSNM008 OM4 Duplex Sc Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZ23LSNSNSNM008 is an OM4 duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density data center and enterprise network installations. Built with a 3mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, this cable provides SC to SC duplex connectivity over a 2-fiber construction. The LSZH jacket rating makes it suitable for plenum-adjacent and enclosed environments where smoke and halogen emissions are a safety concern. Licensed electricians, data center technicians, and low-voltage cabling contractors are the typical installers of this type of structured cabling component.

This patch cable is intended for use in multimode OM4 fiber optic networks supporting high-bandwidth applications such as 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet backbone runs and switch-to-server connections. The SC duplex connector configuration is common in enterprise switching equipment, fiber distribution panels, and data center structured cabling systems. The 2-fiber duplex design supports simultaneous bidirectional transmission, making it a standard choice for active equipment patch connections in both new installations and upgrades.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth 10G, 40G, and 100G applications
• SC duplex connectors on both ends for standard enterprise and data center equipment compatibility
• 3mm LSZH jacket rated for low smoke and zero halogen emissions in enclosed spaces
• 2-fiber duplex construction enables full bidirectional transmission
• Polished PC (Physical Contact) ferrules reduce back-reflection at the connector interface

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard patch cord for use with OM4 multimode fiber optic equipment, SC duplex ports, and fiber distribution panels in enterprise and data center structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or data center infrastructure specialists. Always inspect connector ferrules for contamination and clean with an appropriate fiber optic cleaning tool before mating. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the cable during routing, and avoid sharp bends or kinking. Disconnect active transceivers and follow site lockout procedures before patching into live fiber distribution equipment.
