Panduit FZTYL5EL2SAM020 OM4 12-fiber Trunk Cable Lszh

Product Description

The PANDUIT FZTYL5EL2SAM020 is an OM4 12-fiber multimode trunk cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations. It features an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, making it suitable for enclosed or plenum-adjacent environments where low toxicity during a fire event is required. The cable terminates with an MPO female connector on one end and LC duplex connectors on the other, supporting parallel and breakout cabling architectures. It is typically installed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and data center infrastructure specialists managing backbone or horizontal distribution runs.

This trunk cable is well suited for data center, enterprise LAN, and campus backbone applications where OM4 multimode fiber is the specified medium. The MPO-to-LC duplex configuration supports migration between parallel optics and traditional duplex transceiver equipment. The LSZH jacket meets code requirements for installations in confined spaces such as air-handling areas and underground pathways. It ships as a single unit and is intended for use in structured cabling systems that demand reliable, low-loss multimode connectivity.

Key Features

• OM4 multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 40G and 100G parallel optic links
• 12-fiber count in a single trunk assembly reduces raceway congestion in high-density environments
• LSZH jacket limits smoke and halogen gas emission in confined or occupied spaces
• MPO female to LC duplex termination enables flexible breakout and fan-out cabling configurations
• Factory-terminated ends reduce field termination labor and provide consistent insertion loss performance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fitment trunk cable for OM4 multimode structured cabling systems using MPO and LC duplex infrastructure components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with TIA-568 fiber optic cabling standards. Inspect MPO and LC ferrules for contamination and clean per manufacturer guidance before mating connectors. Observe the minimum bend radius specified for the cable to avoid microbend losses. Do not exceed the rated tensile load during pulling operations, and secure cable slack with appropriate strain-relief hardware.
