Signature Core Push-Pull LC Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cords SPECIFICATION SHEET general information Signature Core Push-Pull LC Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cords allow for rapid deployment of high-density permanent links in a single assembly for data center applications requiring high bandwidth, extended reach, and extremely low insertion loss. Push-Pull LC Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cords containing the custom push-pull strain relief boot and duplex clip, allow users easy accessibility in tight areas when deploying very high density LC patch fields in data center applications. They are available in riser (OFNR), plenum (OFNP), and low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) rated jacket materials to comply with local cabling ordinances. technical information Signature Core Fiber is a modal and chromatic dispersion compensating multimode fiber designed for optimum performance with high-speed Vertical Cavity Surfacing Emitting Lasers (VCSEL) transceivers. The refractive index profile is engineered to correct for the interaction between modal and chromatic dispersion increasing the total channel bandwidth. Current industry standards for OM3 and OM4 fibers neglect this interaction and as a result, channel reach can be significantly limited for a large population of VCSEL transceivers. Like OM3 and OM4 fiber types, the actual supported reach for Signature Core Fiber depends on the electrical and optical 1 characteristics of the VCSEL transceiver . Under worst-case conditions, Signature Core Fiber will provide at least a 20% increase in reach over uncompensated OM4 fibers. Under nominal conditions, Signature Core Fiber will support a 600m reach 2 with 10GBASE-SR transceivers compared to a 400m maximum reach over OM4 as specified in IEEE 802.3 . Applying the 20% minimum increase in reach for OM4 reach published in FC-PI-5 for Fibre Channel communication yields a reach of 225 meters 3 with an 8G Fiber Channel transceiver (800-M5F-SN-I), and 150m with a 16G Fiber Channel transceiver (1 600-M5F-SN-I) . Signature Core Fiber is 100% standards compliant meeting all OM4 specifications, with an additional requirement for 4 Differential Mode Delay (DMD) that compensates for modal and chromatic dispersion effects . application: Provide interconnect and cross-connect of applications in entrance facilities, telecommunication rooms, data centers, and network applications to interconnect pre-terminated cassettes in main distribution, horizontal distribution, and equipment distribution areas. construction physical properties Fiber count: Duplex (2-fiber) jacketed zipcord Cable outside diameter (OD): 1.6mm duplex Cable jacket ratings: Plenum (OFNP) Bend radius, minimum: 32mm Riser (OFNR) Bend radius, minimum (long term): 16mm Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) Connector cable retention: 50N (4.24 lb) Fiber types: Multimode: Signature Core 0C (32F) OM4+ 19.4N (4.4 lb) 90C (194F) Connector types, End A: Duplex LC Connector durability: 500 cycles Connector types, End B: Duplex LC environmental properties Jacket color: Aqua Storage and -40C to 70C (-40F to 158F) shipping temperature: optical properties Operating and -10C to 60C Connector insertion 0.10dB max (14F to 140F) installation temperature: loss: standards Connector return loss: 26dB min Meets or exceeds ISo/IEC 11801, TIA/EIA-568-C.3, TIA-604-10 (FOCIS-10) Restriction of Hazardous All patch cord Substances (RoHS) Compliance: components meet the requirement of Directive 2002/95/EC 1 The actual channel reach of a laser optimized, multimode ber (OM3, OM4, or Signature Core ) depends on the optical and electrical parameters of the VCSEL transceiver. For worst-case optical and electrical parameters, Signature Core Fiber will provide at least 20% greater reach over standard un-compensated OM4 ber. 2 OM4 ber was rati ed in the IEEE802.3/D3.0 proceedings from Dec.15, 2011, Table 52-6 with an Operating Range of 2m to 400m. 3 Reach values are a minimum. 4 Differential Mode Delay (DMD) is a metric de ned in telecommunications industry association standard EIA/TIA 455-220-A, January 2003, which describes a method for measuring the modal dispersion of laser optimized multimode ber. www.panduit.com Signature Core Push-Pull LC Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cords part number configurator Example: FS2ERQNQNNNM005 = Fiber, OM4+, 2- ber, 1.6mm cable, riser rated, LC push-pull connector to LC push-pull connector, ultra IL, 5 meters Character 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Example F S 2 E R Q N Q N N N M 0 0 5 1 Fiber Product 5 Jacket Type 9 Connector Variant F = Fiber L = Low Smoke Zero N = No variant Halogen (LSZH) 2 Fiber Type 10 Performance/Construction P = Optical Fiber Non-Conductive S = OM4+ Signature Core Fiber N = 0.10dB -IL / A-B Plenum (OFNP) (Straight Through) 3 Fiber Count R = Optical Fiber Non-Conductive 11 Connector Variant 2 = 2-fiber Riser (OFNR) N = No variant 4 Cable Type 6 Connector Type 12 Unit of Length E = 1.6mm Q = LC push-pull connector M = Meters 7 Connector Variant 13, 14, 15 Length N = No variant 001 020m, 025m, 030m 8 Connector Type and 035m Q = LC push-pull connector Push-Pull Duplex LC Fiber Optic Patch Cords Push-Pull Duplex Clip Other options are available as follows contact Panduit for part number.
