Overview

The Panduit FC3WO-16M-10U2 Opticom Cassette delivers high-performance OM5 multimode fiber connectivity optimized for data center and enterprise applications. This pre-terminated cassette features duplex LC front connectivity with Aqua adaptors for easy identification, paired with an MTO-16 rear adaptor for seamless integration into structured cabling systems. Engineered for low insertion loss (IL), the FC3WO-16M-10U2 ensures reliable signal transmission with universal polarity support, eliminating polarity management concerns during installation. The cassette is housed in a durable, rack-mountable enclosure designed for front access, enabling quick moves, adds, and changes (MACs) in high-density environments. Compatible with Panduit’s ModLink and Opticom systems, this 16-fiber solution supports 10G/40G/100G Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and other high-speed protocols. With factory-terminated and tested performance, the FC3WO-16M-10U2 reduces installation time by up to 70% compared to field-terminated solutions, minimizing downtime and labor costs. The OM5 fiber type leverages wideband multimode fiber (WBMMF) technology, offering enhanced bandwidth over OM3/OM4 for future-proofing against higher-speed applications. Ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and campus backbones, this cassette integrates effortlessly into Panduit’s fiber management ecosystems, including rack mount and wall mount enclosures. The universal polarity design simplifies deployment, while the low-loss performance ensures consistent signal integrity across the network. Backed by Panduit’s industry-leading warranty, the FC3WO-16M-10U2 is a cost-effective, high-reliability solution for mission-critical connectivity.
