ACT 1.5 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Fiber Patch Cable Duplex with LC/APC Connectors

The ACT 1.5 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Fiber Patch Cable Duplex with LC/APC Connectors is a reliable solution for high-speed data transmission and secure network infrastructure applications. Engineered with OS2 singlemode 9/125 micrometer fiber and a low smoke zero halogen jacket, this fiber patch cable ensures stable performance and minimal signal loss. Each individual cable comes with a test report on insertion loss and return loss, and features laser precision cleaving with Grade A fiber and APC polish for optimal connectivity.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable provides exceptional signal integrity and low reflection thanks to its APC polish and Grade A fiber construction. The inclusion of a low smoke zero halogen jacket enhances safety in enclosed environments by emitting limited smoke and no halogens when exposed to high heat. Laser precision cleaving ensures consistent end-face quality, supported by individual testing for insertion loss and return loss on every cable.

Suitable for

• Telecommunications network infrastructure
• High-speed data transmission
• Fiber optic patch panels and switches
• Enterprise local area networks

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for multimode fiber infrastructure or equipment requiring SC, ST, or other non-LC connector types without appropriate adapters. The 1.5 meter length may also be too short for long-distance runs between distant rooms or separate buildings.

• Fiber optic type: OS2 singlemode
• Core diameter: 9/125 µm
• Connector 1: LC Male with APC polish
• Connector 2: LC Male with APC polish
• Duplex configuration: Full duplex
• Jacket material: Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH)
• Jacket color: Yellow

How to use

Gently remove the protective dust caps from the LC/APC connectors on both ends of the cable. Align the connector carefully with the corresponding LC port on your network device, patch panel, or transceiver, and push straight in until a click is heard or secure connection is established. Ensure the bend radius of the fiber cable is maintained within safe limits to prevent signal attenuation or fiber damage.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment utilizes LC-type ports
• Check if your installation environment specifically requires OS2 singlemode fiber
• Confirm that the 1.5 meter length is sufficient for your connection layout

Always inspect and clean the fiber end-faces with approved cleaning tools before installation to maintain optimal optical performance and prevent dust contamination.
