Panduit NKFPX1BN1NNM001 Lc OM3 Fiber Patch Cord 1M

Product Description

The PANDUIT NKFPX1BN1NNM001 is a single-fiber OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cord terminated with LC connectors. It provides a low-loss optical connection between active equipment ports, patch panels, and distribution frames in structured cabling systems. At 1 meter in length, this cord is suited for short-reach connections within enclosures or rack-to-rack links in data centers and telecommunications rooms. Licensed network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors are the typical installers. OM3 glass supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet runs and is compatible with 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser sources used in modern switch and transceiver hardware.

This patch cord is designed for use in enterprise LAN backbones, data center interconnects, and structured cabling installations that call for OM3 multimode fiber. The 1-meter length makes it practical for intra-rack or patch-panel-to-switch connections where cable management space is limited. It fits into PANDUIT NetKey and similar fiber distribution systems designed around LC-style connector ports.

Key Features

• OM3 multimode fiber supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over laser-optimized 50/125 micron glass
• LC connector termination provides a compact, high-density interface for switch and transceiver ports
• 1-meter length designed for short-reach intra-rack and panel-to-equipment runs
• Single-fiber construction for applications requiring individual strand routing
• Factory-terminated and tested for insertion loss to support reliable optical performance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for OM3 multimode fiber optic systems using LC-style connector ports in structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Low-voltage network cabling technicians install fiber optic patch cords following TIA-568 and ISO 11801 structured cabling standards. Always inspect LC ferrule end-faces with an optical fiber inspection scope before mating connectors to avoid contamination-related insertion loss. Do not bend the cord below its minimum bend radius and do not pull on the fiber cable body to seat or remove connectors. Power down or disable the optical port before handling connectors to avoid exposure to laser energy from active transceivers.
