Panduit FZ2ELQ1Q1NNM050 OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZ2ELQ1Q1NNM050 is a duplex multimode fiber optic patch cable built for structured cabling installations in commercial and enterprise environments. It features an OM4-rated optical core with a 1.6mm cordage diameter and low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacketing, making it suitable for plenum and enclosed spaces where fire safety codes restrict halogen-containing materials. The push-pull connector design allows for clean, tool-free insertion and removal in high-density fiber panels. This cable ships as a single unit and is handled by licensed low-voltage and structured cabling technicians.

This patch cable is used in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise network closets where OM4 multimode fiber infrastructure is deployed. The 1.6mm slim cordage diameter helps manage cable density in crowded patch panels and fiber enclosures. The LSZH jacket meets fire-safety requirements common in European installations and increasingly specified in North American commercial projects. The push-pull tab connector body simplifies moves, adds, and changes in dense LC fiber panels without requiring additional extraction tools.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber core rated for high-bandwidth applications including 40G and 100G network infrastructure
• 1.6mm slim cordage diameter reduces congestion in high-density fiber patch panels and enclosures
• LSZH jacket limits smoke and toxic gas emission in the event of fire, meeting strict indoor installation codes
• Push-pull connector design enables tool-free insertion and removal in tightly packed LC duplex port arrays
• Duplex configuration with 2 fibers supports simultaneous transmit and receive paths in a single cable assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install duplex fiber patch cable for OM4 multimode fiber optic panels and equipment ports using LC-style push-pull connectors in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or registered communications distribution designer familiar with TIA-568 cabling standards. Power down or place associated active equipment in a safe state before disturbing live fiber connections. Avoid sharp bend radii below the minimum specified for 1.6mm cordage to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. Do not force push-pull connectors — resistance typically indicates misalignment with the port keyway.
