Panduit FZ2ERLNSNSNM024 OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZ2ERLNSNSNM024 is an OM4 multimode duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations. Built with a 1.6mm duplex zipcord jacket rated OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser), this cable carries two fibers terminated with LC duplex connectors on each end. At 24 inches in length, it is suited for short-reach connections between adjacent rack-mounted equipment. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of patch cord in data centers, telecommunications rooms, and enterprise network closets where OM4 multimode performance is required.

This patch cable is intended for use in riser-rated indoor environments where OM4 multimode transmission is specified. The 24-inch length makes it practical for top-of-rack switching applications, patch panel to switch connections, and intra-cabinet fiber runs. The LC duplex form factor is widely used in SFP and SFP-plus transceiver applications operating at 10 Gbps, 40 Gbps, and 100 Gbps over multimode fiber. Installation is typically performed by low-voltage technicians and structured cabling contractors following TIA-568 standards.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth 10G, 40G, and 100G applications over multimode infrastructure
• OFNR riser-rated jacket meets building code requirements for vertical runs between floors
• 1.6mm duplex zipcord construction keeps both fibers together in a compact, manageable form
• LC duplex connectors on both ends for compatibility with SFP and SFP-plus port interfaces
• 24-inch length optimized for short intra-rack and patch panel connections
• 2-fiber configuration supports full-duplex transmission in a single cable assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with LC duplex SFP and SFP-plus transceivers in OM4 multimode fiber installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage cabling technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords, confirm that laser sources are powered off or ports are disabled to avoid eye hazard from active optical transceivers. Keep dust caps in place on unused connectors to protect end-faces from contamination, and inspect and clean connector end-faces with appropriate fiber optic cleaning tools before mating. Do not bend the cable tighter than its minimum bend radius during routing.
