Product Description
The PANDUIT FXTYP5EL2SAM040 is a pre-terminated OM3 multimode fiber optic trunk cable designed for high-density structured cabling installations. It features an MPO female connector on one end and LC duplex connectors on the other, supporting 12-fiber breakout configurations. Rated OFNP (optical fiber nonconductive plenum), this cable meets plenum-space fire and smoke requirements without a conduit. It is installed by licensed low-voltage technicians and data communications cabling professionals in commercial and enterprise environments.
This trunk cable is suited for data center interconnects, enterprise backbone runs, and high-density patch panel applications where OM3 multimode performance is required. The MPO-to-LC duplex format allows direct connection between MPO trunk infrastructure and standard LC-based active equipment such as switches, transceivers, and patch panels. Its factory-terminated ends eliminate field termination and reduce installation time on structured cabling projects.
Key Features
- OM3 multimode fiber supports 10GbE and 40GbE applications over appropriate distances
- MPO female to LC duplex breakout configuration for high-density connectivity
- OFNP plenum rating permits installation in air-handling spaces without conduit
- 12-fiber count in a single trunk assembly reduces pathway congestion
- Factory-terminated ends ensure consistent insertion loss and eliminate field polishing
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit trunk cable for OM3 multimode MPO-based structured cabling systems using LC duplex equipment interfaces.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or fiber optic cabling technician in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 standards. Deactivate connected equipment and follow proper ESD precautions before handling fiber connectors. Inspect connector end-faces and clean with an approved fiber cleaning tool prior to mating. Observe minimum bend radius requirements throughout the cable route to avoid signal degradation.
