Panduit NKFPZ22LLLSM003 2-fiber OM4 Patch Cord Lszh

Product Description

The PANDUIT NKFPZ22LLLSM003 is a 2-fiber OM4 multimode fiber optic patch cord designed for high-density structured cabling installations. It features a 2.0mm low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket, making it suitable for enclosed or plenum-adjacent environments where halogen-free materials are required by code. OM4 graded-index multimode fiber supports high-bandwidth applications including 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet over standard multimode runs. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors install this cord as a structured cabling interconnect or cross-connect jumper.

This patch cord is used in data center, enterprise LAN, and telecommunications room environments where LSZH jacket materials are specified. It is appropriate for backbone and horizontal cabling patch points in multimode fiber distribution frames, wall-mount enclosures, and rack-mount fiber management panels. The LSZH jacket construction addresses fire-safety requirements common in European standards and specific North American project specifications requiring reduced smoke and halogen emissions.

Key Features

• OM4 graded-index multimode fiber for 10G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet support
• 2.0mm LSZH jacket reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions in fire conditions
• 2-fiber construction for standard duplex multimode interconnects
• Designed for use in high-density fiber distribution and patch panel environments
• Sold as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard interconnect patch cord for multimode OM4 fiber optic structured cabling systems using compatible duplex LC, SC, or other termination configurations as specified by the installation design.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician or registered communications distribution designer (RCDD) familiar with TIA-568 fiber optic cabling standards. Disable active optical transceivers on both ends before connecting or disconnecting the patch cord to avoid potential eye hazard from laser sources. Keep dust caps installed until the moment of connection and inspect end faces with a fiber inspection scope before mating. Avoid bending the cord below its minimum bend radius during routing to prevent signal loss or physical damage to the fiber.
