Panduit NKFPX23LSSSM001 2-fiber OM3 Patch Cable

Product Description

The PANDUIT NKFPX23LSSSM001 is a 2-fiber OM3 multimode fiber optic patch cable featuring a 3.0mm low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket. Designed for structured cabling environments, this patch cable carries optical signals between network equipment such as switches, patch panels, and active components. The OM3 multimode glass fiber supports high-bandwidth, short-to-medium distance data transmission, making it a standard choice in data center and enterprise LAN applications. Network technicians and licensed low-voltage installers handle the termination and routing of this cable type during infrastructure builds and equipment moves.

This patch cable is suited for use in indoor commercial and enterprise network environments where LSZH jacket materials are required by local fire or building codes. The LSZH construction limits toxic smoke and halogen gas emissions in enclosed spaces such as data centers, telecommunications rooms, and plenum-adjacent pathways. It is intended for horizontal or equipment-bay patching runs where OM3 multimode connectivity is specified.

Key Features

• 2-fiber OM3 multimode construction for high-bandwidth data transmission
• 3.0mm diameter LSZH outer jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions in enclosed spaces
• LSZH jacket meets code requirements in installations where standard PVC jackets are not permitted
• Sold as an individual unit for single-cable replacement or infrastructure additions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style patch cable for use in structured cabling systems specifying OM3 multimode fiber with LSZH-rated jacketing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or structured cabling installer familiar with fiber optic handling practices. Avoid sharp bend radii that exceed the cable minimum bend radius, as this can cause signal attenuation or physical fiber damage. Clean all connectors before mating using approved fiber optic cleaning tools. Follow applicable local building and fire codes when routing LSZH cables through conduit, cable trays, or enclosed pathways.
