Panduit Fusion Splice LC Connector, OM3/OM4/OM5, Aqua

Engineered for high-density data-center and enterprise fiber deployments, the Panduit Fusion Splice LC Connector delivers reliable, fusion-spliced LC connections for OM3/OM4/OM5 multimode networks. This Aqua-coded LC connector is designed to work with 50/125 µm multimode fiber, supporting both 900-µm tight-buffered and 250-µm loose-tube fiber installations. It provides a fast, field-terminable solution that helps minimize downtime and labor costs while delivering consistent optical performance across a broad range of applications. Built to integrate seamlessly with Panduit’s robust fiber management ecosystem, this connector combines durable materials, precise alignment, and color-coding that simplifies inventory control, installation, and ongoing maintenance in demanding networks.

  • Om3/Om4/Om5 compatibility: Multimode 50/125 µm fiber support with a fusion-splice LC connector designed for OM3, OM4, and OM5 networks, enabling scalable upgrades and flexible deployments.
  • Fast field termination: Field termination can be completed in about two minutes using common fusion splice machines (not sold by Panduit), reducing on-site downtime and improving project throughput.
  • Fiber compatibility flexibility: Suitable for 900-µm tight-buffered or 250-µm loose-tube fiber, offering installers flexibility in cable preparation and routing without special tooling.
  • Aqua identification: Distinctive Aqua color-coding helps engineers and technicians quickly identify OM3/OM4/OM5 connectors in dense cable plants, supporting organized patching and troubleshooting.
  • Reliable performance: Precision alignment and robust ferrule design support low insertion loss and high return loss, delivering stable, repeatable results in high-traffic networks.

Technical Details of Panduit Fusion Splice LC Connector, OM3/OM4/OM5, Aqua

  • Product type: Fusion-splice LC fiber optic connector
  • Fiber type compatibility: Multimode 50/125 µm (OM3/OM4/OM5)
  • Fiber diameter compatibility: 900 µm tight-buffered and 250 µm loose-tube
  • Color code: Aqua
  • Termination method: Fusion splice (field termination)
  • Typical installation time: Approximately 2 minutes with standard fusion splicers
  • End-face geometry: Designed for reliable polishing and stable optical performance with LC ferrules

how to install Panduit Fusion Splice LC Connector

  • Prepare the fiber: Begin by selecting the appropriate fiber type (OM3/OM4/OM5) and verify the jacket and buffer are suitable for 900-µm tight-buffered or 250-µm loose-tube installations. Use a clean, fiber-safe workspace and ensure you have the correct tools for stripping, cleaning, and cleaving.
  • Strip and clean: Carefully strip the fiber jacket to expose the correct buffer thickness, then clean the exposed fiber ends with isopropyl alcohol and lint-free wipes. Inspect the fiber endface for any scrapes or contamination that could affect splice quality.
  • Prepare the connector assembly: Assemble the LC connector components as required by the fusion-splice process you are using, ensuring the fiber is properly aligned for the fusion splice and that the connector is ready to receive the fiber once terminated.
  • Perform the fusion splice: Place the prepared fiber end into the fusion splicer following the device’s standard operating procedure. Run the fusion splice to join the fiber to the connector or ferrule according to the splice machine’s instructions, observing recommended fusion parameters for OM3/OM4/OM5 multimode fiber.
  • Inspect and verify: After the splice, inspect the termination under a microscope to confirm a clean end-face geometry and proper alignment. Perform a basic optical test (continuity and loss measurement) with appropriate equipment to verify that the connector meets your network’s performance requirements. Label and package the terminated connector for installation into patch panels or adapters.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What fiber types does this connector support?
  • A: It supports multimode 50/125 µm fiber for OM3, OM4, and OM5 networks, compatible with 900-µm tight-buffered and 250-µm loose-tube installations.
  • Q: How long does field termination take?
  • A: Field termination typically takes about two minutes when using standard fusion splicing equipment, enabling rapid deployment in the field.
  • Q: Does it require special tools from Panduit?
  • A: No special Panduit tools are required; standard fusion splicer equipment and common fiber preparation tools are used for termination.
  • Q: What is the benefit of the Aqua color code?
  • A: The Aqua color coding helps technicians quickly identify OM3/OM4/OM5 connectors within dense patch panels and cable trays, simplifying maintenance and reducing installation errors.
  • Q: What kind of performance can I expect?
  • A: You can expect reliable, repeatable optical performance with low insertion loss and good return loss due to precise ferrule alignment and robust connector construction, suitable for high-traffic data-center and enterprise networks.

The product is a good one!
Color: White, Size: 40inch without Power Outlet
The desk is conveniently assembled and looks nice. My daughter likes it. One drawback is the corners of its top panel are a bit sharp and it would be better if they are rounded.

Choo Choo Desk
Color: White, Size: 40inch without Power Outlet
When looking for a desk; you're considering size and practicality for your purchase. Additionally, you're hoping the assembly of the desk will not require a brain surgeon to apply assembly. As this is my second Choo Choo Desk purchase; both the price, size, practicality and assembly are top notch. My wife uses one as her craft/sewing platform and the other as her computer desk. In placing both side by side, she can negotiate from one to the other with little to no effort and as it offers enough room on each platform with drawers for her notions, notebooks and patterns; She is quite content with her Choo Choo Desk(s) set up. For those searching for a great desk, this Choo Choo set is ideal for minimum sized areas. One has a power bar with A/C and USB ports while the other is a simple desk corner to corner.

Good quality desk for the money
Color: White, Size: 40inch without Power Outlet
Overall this is nice little desk, cute, sturdy, and relatively easy to put together by myself. I took one star off because the bottoms of the desk drawers was missing. I contacted the seller and initially got a pretty quick response that the manufacturer would send replacement pieces and provide the shipping tracking information from the warehouse as soon as they had it. Then a few weeks went by without any word and I couldn't seem to contact anyone again (every link came up broken) so I thought I was essentially ghosted. But then they did contact me with the tracking information and eventually sent the replacement drawer flats. So it took almost two months to resolve but I did get the missing pieces and overall I'm pretty happy with this desk as it was exactly what I wanted for my small home office.
