Panduit FZ23LSNSNSNM014 OM4 Sc Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZ23LSNSNSNM014 is an OM4 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable terminated with SC connectors on both ends. Constructed with a 3mm LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer jacket, this cable carries two fibers in a duplex configuration suited for high-bandwidth data transmission in structured cabling environments. The polished PC (Physical Contact) ferrule finish reduces back-reflection and insertion loss, making this cable appropriate for demanding network infrastructure applications. It is installed by licensed low-voltage technicians and data cabling professionals in enterprise, data center, and industrial settings.

This patch cable is designed for use in environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required, such as plenum-adjacent spaces, transit facilities, and commercial buildings with strict fire and air quality codes. The OM4 fiber classification supports 10 Gigabit and higher Ethernet speeds over appropriate distances, making it a practical choice for backbone and equipment-room interconnects. The duplex SC format is widely used in switches, patch panels, transceivers, and fiber distribution units.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports 10GbE and higher bandwidth applications
• Duplex SC connectors on both ends for standard bidirectional data links
• 3mm LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke emission in enclosed or occupied spaces
• PC-polished ferrules minimize insertion loss and back-reflection
• 2-fiber duplex construction for full-duplex transmission

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit patch cable for OM4 multimode fiber infrastructure using SC duplex ports on switches, patch panels, and fiber transceivers.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Inspect ferrule end-faces before insertion and clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools to prevent contamination. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and avoid kinking or crushing the jacket during routing. Installations in commercial buildings should comply with applicable local fire codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards.
