Overview

The Panduit OPTICOM CASSETTE OM5+ (SKU: FC2WA-24-10B1) is engineered for high-density network infrastructure, supporting 40G/100G Ethernet and other high-speed applications. This cassette utilizes OM5+ multimode fiber, optimized for Short-Wave Wavelength Division Multiplexing (SWDM) to enhance bandwidth for parallel optics. Its configuration features 2 MPO connectors, each supporting 12 duplex LC ports, enabling up to 12 connections per cassette. This design significantly reduces cable clutter in data centers and enterprise environments. The ULTRA IL METHOD B1 ensures low insertion loss, with a typical value of ≤0.35 dB, and promotes high reliability, meeting the stringent requirements of modern fiber optic systems. The FC2WA-24-10B1 is compatible with standard MPO trunk cables and LC patch cords, facilitating straightforward upgrades to higher network speeds while maintaining backward compatibility. It is designed for integration into standard patch panels, distribution frames, and high-density fiber enclosures. Manufactured in the US, this Panduit cassette adheres to ISO/IEC 11801 and ANSI/TIA-568.3-D standards, and is RoHS compliant.
