Fiber Patch Cable LSZH ACT 1m Duplex LC Connectors

The ACT 1m LSZH Duplex LC fiber patch cable is a singlemode 9/125 OS2 cable designed for short-boot duplex connections. Constructed with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material, the cable minimizes smoke and toxic emissions in enclosed spaces and is intended for data centers, telecommunication racks and other singlemode network links. The cable features duplex LC connectors with UPC polish and is manufactured using grade A fiber for consistent singlemode performance.

Advantages

Each cable undergoes individual IL (insertion loss) and RL (return loss) testing with a dedicated test report, and end-faces are 100% inspected to ensure connector quality. Laser-precision cleaving is used during termination for accurate end-face geometry, while UPC polish improves return loss performance. The LSZH jacket provides enhanced safety where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required.

Suitable for

• Data center patching and cross-connects
• Telecommunications equipment and rack connections
• Singlemode network links requiring duplex LC connectors
• Environments where low smoke, zero halogen materials are preferred

How to use

Route the 1 m duplex LC patch cable between the appropriate LC ports on network devices, patch panels or transceivers, ensuring correct polarity for full duplex connections. Hold connectors by the housing when inserting or removing and avoid excessive bending near the connector boot to maintain fiber integrity. Secure the cable with cable management hardware to prevent strain and to preserve insertion and return loss performance.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment; avoid contaminating connector end-faces and clean with approved fiber cleaning tools before mating. Follow equipment manufacturer guidelines for insertion loss limits and replace the cable if any end-face damage or performance degradation is observed.
