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.

Nice room divider
Color: Colorful Landscape, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Colorful Landscape, Size: 6 Panel
I am pleased with this room divider. I was concerned that the art design might look blurry or cheap in person compared to online, but it doesn't. It looks really nice. In fact, I like it so much that I bought a second one as well. It arrived folded up - there is no assembly required - you simply unfold it and place it where you want. It's relatively light weight so it's easy to move. I also like that there is a different artwork design on each side. You have two choices; you can display whichever side you like more.

May cause respiratory issues
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 4 Panel
The painting on this panel is beautiful and quality has held up BUT I’m almost certain this contributed to respiratory issues. It was next to my bed for a year and I recently noticed it’s still shedding red/brown dust. The wood was clearly painted over and it makes me skeptical about the wood that was used. The panel itself feels like it’s made cardboard. If you’re sensitive or plan to place this panel in a main living area, I would not recommend

Ideal to hide stuff.
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 6 Panel
A really decorative pice for privacy, but I will also purchase the feet separately for sturdiness.

Muted But Pretty!
Color: Mountains and Waters, Size: 3 Panel
Nice, sturdy 3-panel screen/room divider! However, could/should have been priced at $20-30 less. I like that it stands and folds easily, and there is not too much decoration or an exorbitant design. The colors are muted and would work well with many styles or color schemes. Personally, I wanted the wood frame to be a little lighter in color though.
