Overview

The Panduit FLCDMCXBRD is a Pre-Polished Keyed LC Duplex OptiCam connector designed for reliable fiber optic networking. This connector is specifically engineered for OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber types, ensuring compatibility with high-speed data transmission standards. The keyed LC duplex design enhances connection security and prevents mis-mating, a critical feature in dense network environments. Its red color-coded boot aids in easy identification and management within fiber optic infrastructure. The integrated 900um aqua boot provides robust strain relief and protection for the fiber cable. The pre-polished termination method simplifies field installation, reducing the need for specialized tools and minimizing on-site labor. This approach contributes to faster deployment times and consistent, high-quality terminations. Ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunication systems requiring dependable multimode fiber connectivity. Manufacturer: Panduit. SKU: FLCDMCXBRD. UNSPSC Code: 43223310.
