Fiber patch cable duplex SC SC 1.5m ACT

The ACT Fiber patch cable duplex SC SC 1.5m is a singlemode OS2 fiber jumper designed for point-to-point connections in network and telecom infrastructures. Featuring SC connectors on both ends and a 9/125 µm core/cladding ratio, this 1.5 meter cable supports high-speed data transfer with low attenuation. The cable jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH), reducing toxic and corrosive gas emission in case of fire, which makes it suitable for use in enclosed or safety-sensitive spaces.

Advantages

The duplex SC–SC configuration provides a dependable duplex link with standardized push-pull SC connectors for easy insertion and removal. Singlemode OS2 fiber construction offers low signal loss over long distances and stable performance for high-bandwidth applications. The LSZH jacket increases safety in public or indoor environments by limiting smoke and halogen release. The 1.5 meter length gives a compact, manageable reach that reduces cable slack and simplifies routing in racks and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Interconnection between switches, routers and fiber patch panels in data centers
• Telecommunications links and point-to-point fiber runs
• Indoor installations in offices, server rooms and equipment closets
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling for fire safety

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode (OS2), 9/125 µm
• Connector type: SC to SC duplex
• Length: 1.5 meters
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Polish: typically UPC/PC (factory-polished end faces for low return loss)
• Application: indoor patching and point-to-point links

How to use

Route the duplex cable between the two fiber ports so that transmit and receive channels are correctly aligned. Insert the SC connectors into compatible SC ports until they click into place; SC connectors use a push-pull mechanism for secure connection. Avoid tight bends and kinks; maintain the minimum bend radius specified for singlemode fiber to prevent increased attenuation. Secure excess cable length with appropriate cable management to prevent stress on the connectors and ensure stable optical performance.

Usage recommendations

Before deployment, inspect connector end faces for dust or contamination and clean with approved fiber cleaning tools if needed. Use this LSZH singlemode duplex cable for indoor and safety-sensitive installations; for outdoor or direct-burial applications, select a cable rated for outdoor conditions. Store the cable coiled loosely and avoid sharp bends when transporting or installing.
