Keyed LC Opti-Core Patch Cords and Pigtails –
Riser (OFNR) and Plenum (OFNP) Rated
SPECIFICATION SHEET
s p e c i f i c a t i o n s
Keyed LC fiber optic patch cords shall include simplex or duplex
keyed LC connectors on both ends, or on one end with non-keyed
LC or SC connectors on the other end. Keyed LC fiber optic
pigtails shall include simplex or duplex keyed LC connectors on
one end and open (unterminated) on the other end. Keyed LC
connectors shall be mechanically keyed with color-specific
positive and negative keying features to prevent unintentional
mating with unlike keyed or non-keyed adapters. Patch cords
and pigtails shall include laser optimized OM3 fiber, OM2,
OM1 and OS1/OS2 fiber inside 900µm tight-buffered fiber or
1.6mm simplex or duplex zip-cord jacketed cable. Jacketed
cable shall be compliant with UL1666 (OFNR) or NFPA 262
(OFNP) flame ratings. Patch cords and pigtails shall be
RoHS compliant and shall meet or exceed requirements of
TIA/EIA-568-B.3. The fiber connectors shall exceed the
requirements of TIA/EIA-455-21A for 500 mating cycles.

Keyed LC Opti-Core® Fiber Optic Patch Cords and
Pigtails enable fiber to the desk (FTTD), interconnect
and cross-connect of applications for the specialized
infrastructure design that is required for secure
networks. The primary application for Keyed LC
Opti-Core® Fiber Optic Patch Cords and Pigtails is
FTTD deployments that require a level of visual and
mechanical differentiation, and physical layer security
that conventional connector solutions cannot provide.
These riser (OFNR) and plenum (OFNP) rated patch
cords and pigtails support installations that require
flame ratings in specific environments. Keyed LC
Opti-Core® Fiber Optic Patch Cords and Pigtails are
available in OM1, OM2, OM3 and OS1/OS2 fiber types
to meet the demands of Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit
Ethernet and high speed Fibre Channel systems while
maintaining compatibility with Ethernet, Fast Ethernet,
FDDI and ATM.
Includes 6 duplex adapters; replace 6 in part
numbers with 8 or 12 for 8 or 12 adapters.
^Substitute for fiber type: 6 = 62.5/125µm OM1,
5 = 50/125µm OM2, X = 10Gig™ 50/125µm
OM3 or 9 = 9/125µm OS1/OS2.
‡Substitute for length in meters: 1 – 10, 15, 20 or
30. Contact Customer Service for other available
lengths or universal reference patch cords.
*900µm buffered fiber pigtails are not flame rated;
jacketed pigtails listed are plenum (OFNP) rated.
**Substitute for module color: AW for Arctic White,
BL for Black, BU for Blue, EI for Electric Ivory,
or IW for Off White.
