Panduit NKFP923RSSSM005 2-fiber OS2 Patch Cord

Product Description

The PANDUIT NKFP923RSSSM005 is a 2-fiber OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cord with a 3.0mm riser-rated jacket. Designed for structured cabling installations, this patch cord supports long-distance, low-attenuation signal transmission in single-mode fiber optic networks. The riser jacket rating makes it suitable for vertical runs between floors in commercial and institutional buildings. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this type of cord to interconnect fiber optic equipment, patch panels, and network switches in data centers, telecom rooms, and enterprise network environments.

This patch cord is intended for use in riser (CMR-rated) pathway applications where a 3.0mm duplex OS2 single-mode cord is specified. Typical deployment includes patching between fiber optic panels and active networking equipment in building backbone cabling systems. The 2-fiber duplex configuration supports full-duplex transmission over a single cord assembly, making it a standard choice for structured fiber network terminations in commercial and enterprise settings.

Key Features

• OS2 single-mode fiber supports long-distance, low-loss optical transmission
• 3.0mm duplex riser-rated jacket meets CMR fire rating requirements for in-building vertical runs
• 2-fiber duplex construction enables full-duplex communication over one cable assembly
• Factory-terminated patch cord construction ensures consistent, tested optical performance
• Compact, manageable design suited for high-density fiber patching environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cord for use with OS2 single-mode fiber optic panels, adapters, and active equipment in structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician familiar with fiber optic handling practices. Power down or disable any active optical transceivers before connecting or disconnecting fiber patch cords to avoid eye hazard from live laser sources. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius of the cable, and do not over-tension the cord during routing. Fiber optic installations in commercial buildings should comply with applicable NEC riser cabling requirements for the pathway type.
