Overview

The Panduit FODRX06Y is a 6-fiber indoor distribution cable featuring OM3 multimode fiber, designed for reliable data transmission in building infrastructure. This cable utilizes 50μm OM3 fiber, offering a bandwidth suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 300 meters and 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters. Each of the six fibers is protected by a 900μm tight-buffered construction, which simplifies handling, stripping, and termination processes. The cable jacket is LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), providing life safety benefits and meeting IEC standards for low smoke generation and halogen-free content. It complies with ANSI/ICEA S-83-596 and Telcordia GR-409 for indoor fiber optic cables. The operating temperature range is -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F), with storage from -40°C to 80°C (-40°F to 176°F) and installation from -10°C to 50°C (14°F to +122°F). Maximum attenuation for OM3 fiber is 3.5dB/km @ 850nm and 1.5dB/km @ 1300nm. The cable also meets IEC 60332-3-24 Category C (Vertical Flame Spread), IEC 61034 (Low Smoke), and IEC 60754-1 and 2 (Halogen Free), and is RoHS Compliant. The SKU is FODRX06Y.

How to Install Fiber Optic Indoor Tight-Buffered Cable

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the installation and preparation of fiber optic indoor tight-buffered cables, including cable pulling, sheath removal, and fiber preparation.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Sheath knife, Wire strippers, Scissors, Needle nose pliers, Linesmen pliers, Utility knife

Supplies needed:

Rip cord, Vinyl electrical tape, Frict tape, Strength member yarns

  1. Prepare the cable

    Select the appropriate pulling grip based on the cable diameter and inspect it for damage. Ensure the grip fits snugly over the cable's outer jacket.

  2. Remove the outer jacket

    Using a sheath knife, ring the outer jacket of the cable at the designated length (typically 6-8 inches from the end). Flex the cable at the cut to separate and remove the jacket.

  3. Expose the fibers

    Carefully separate the strength member yarns from the core and cut them to the length specified by local practices. Use an approved stripping tool to remove the tight-buffered coating from the fibers, taking care not to damage them.
