Panduit FZ2ERQ1Q1SNM035 OM4 Duplex Fiber Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZ2ERQ1Q1SNM035 is a 2-fiber OM4 duplex fiber optic patch cord built with a 1.6mm diameter cable and a push-pull connector style. It carries an OFNR (Optical Fiber Nonconductive Riser) rating, making it suitable for riser-rated pathways in commercial and industrial structured cabling installations. The push-pull connector design allows for tool-free insertion and extraction in high-density panels where space is limited. Licensed network technicians, low-voltage contractors, and data center cabling crews are the primary installers of this type of patch cord.

This patch cord is intended for use in OM4 multimode fiber optic networks, supporting high-bandwidth applications in data centers, enterprise LAN backbones, and campus riser runs. The OFNR jacket rating qualifies it for installation in vertical riser pathways between floors, where fire code requires a riser-rated cable. It is sold as a single unit and is used to interconnect fiber optic equipment at patch panels, switches, transceivers, and media converters in structured cabling systems.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber classification supports high-bandwidth transmission over extended distances
• 2-fiber duplex configuration provides simultaneous transmit and receive paths in a single cord
• 1.6mm cable diameter for use in high-density, space-constrained fiber enclosures
• OFNR-rated jacket meets riser fire code requirements for vertical cable runs
• Push-pull connector style enables tool-free install and removal in dense patch environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for OM4 multimode fiber optic patch panels, switches, and active equipment ports using compatible push-pull style fiber connectors.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage contractor or qualified network cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Deactivate or power down connected active equipment before handling fiber connections to protect both the fiber end faces and optical transceivers. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable and keep end faces capped with dust covers when not in use. Riser-rated cable must be routed through fire-stopped penetrations in accordance with applicable building and fire codes.
