ACT RL8002 Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable with LC and SC Connectors, 2 Meter Length, LSZH Jacket, Orange

The ACT RL8002 Multimode 62.5/125 OM1 Duplex Fiber Patch Cable with LC and SC Connectors is designed for reliable and high-speed network connectivity in telecommunications and data center environments. Measuring 2 meters in length, this orange optical patch cable features precision-polished LC and SC connectors to ensure secure and stable signal transmission. Built with a low smoke zero halogen LSZH jacket, it minimizes toxic emissions in the event of a fire, making it suitable for indoor installations where safety is a priority.

Advantages

This OM1 fiber patch cable delivers dependable performance backed by individual testing for insertion loss and return loss, alongside a 100-percent end-face inspection to guarantee quality. The integration of Grade A-m fiber and laser precision cleaving with a UPC polish ensures optimal light transmission and minimal signal degradation. Its full duplex capability allows simultaneous two-way data transfer, supporting efficient network operations.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and routers in local area networks
• Data center optical patching and telecommunication racks
• Indoor installations requiring LSZH compliant cabling
• Legacy 62.5/125 OM1 fiber optic network setups

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not designed for outdoor use where it would be exposed to direct weather elements, moisture, or UV radiation without proper external conduit protection. Additionally, it may not meet the bandwidth or distance requirements of modern high-speed infrastructure that requires OM3, OM4, or single-mode fiber specifications.

Key specifications

• Multimode OM1 fiber type with 62.5/125 micron core and cladding
• Duplex configuration for bidirectional data transmission
• LC connector on one end and SC connector on the other
• 2 meter cable length
• Low smoke zero halogen LSZH jacket in orange color
• UPC connector polish
• Grade A-m fiber quality

How to use

Carefully unpack the fiber patch cable and inspect the connectors for any dust or debris before installation. Remove the protective dust caps from the LC and SC connectors immediately prior to plugging them into the corresponding ports of your network equipment. Gently push the connector into the adapter until a click is heard or a secure connection is established, ensuring not to bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network equipment requires an LC to SC connector combination
• Check if the 2-meter length is sufficient for the distance between your connected devices
• Confirm that your existing infrastructure utilizes 62.5/125 OM1 multimode fiber
• Assess local building regulations regarding the necessity of LSZH jacket ratings

Always handle optical fiber cables with care, avoid excessive bending or pulling during installation, and use lint-free optical cleaning tools if the connector end-faces require cleaning.
