Overview

The Panduit FOCLZ12 is a 12-fiber, OM4, Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) indoor/outdoor central tube cable designed for versatile deployment in both environments without compromise. This cable utilizes dry water blocking technology, employing super absorbent polymers instead of traditional petroleum-based gels within the fiber tubes and the cable core. This dry construction eliminates the need for cleaning gels during installation, simplifying the process and reducing labor costs while fully meeting water blocking requirements. The FOCLZ12 is suitable for non-plenum (riser/OFNR) rated applications, offering a robust solution for outside plant installations that transitions seamlessly into indoor environments. This eliminates the need for separate indoor and outdoor cables, saving on material costs, labor, and preserving the optical loss budget. The OM4 fiber type supports high-bandwidth applications, making it ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunications infrastructure. The 250 µm fiber diameter ensures compatibility with standard fiber optic termination and splicing equipment. Manufactured in the USA, this cable adheres to stringent quality standards. Its LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and toxic gas emissions in the event of a fire, enhancing safety in enclosed spaces. The central tube design provides excellent mechanical protection for the fibers. This cable is a direct replacement for traditional gel-filled cables, offering a cleaner and more efficient installation experience. The Panduit FOCLZ12 is engineered for reliability and performance in mixed indoor and outdoor network deployments.
