Overview

The Panduit FlexCore Front Access ODF Fiber Optic Cassette (SKU: FDCSA-24-10ASRH) provides a high-density fiber management solution for modern data centers and enterprise networks. This cassette features Signature Core OM4+ fiber, offering enhanced performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and beyond, with a bandwidth of 4700 MHz-km. It terminates 24 fibers, presented as 12 LC Duplex connectors on the front, facilitating easy patching and management. The rear of the cassette is configured with two MPO-12 connectors, utilizing Method A straight-through polarity, which is standard for many transceiver and patch panel configurations. This right-hand orientation ensures optimal cable routing within ODF (Optical Distribution Frame) systems. The cassette is engineered for Ultra Low Loss (Ultra IL), minimizing signal degradation and maximizing network reach. Manufactured in the US, this cassette is designed for reliable and efficient fiber optic connectivity within Panduit's ODF enclosures. Its front-access design simplifies installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting, allowing technicians to easily access and manage fiber connections without disrupting adjacent modules. The 2xMPO-12 configuration supports high-density backbone cabling and interconnections, making it suitable for applications requiring significant fiber counts and high bandwidth.
