Deltaco LCSC-85 InfiniBand and Fibre Optic Cable 5 m LC to SC Pink OS1 OS2 Single Mode LSZH 9 µm

The Deltaco LCSC-85 InfiniBand and Fibre Optic Cable 5 m LC to SC Pink OS1 OS2 Single Mode LSZH 9 µm is a high-quality single-mode patch cable designed for reliable network connectivity and efficient optical fiber data transmission. Measuring 5 meters in length, this fiber optic cable features an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other, making it suitable for linking various types of networking hardware. Built with a 9 µm core diameter and OS1/OS2 fiber standards, it ensures low signal attenuation over long distances. The cable is encased in a low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) jacket, which minimizes the release of toxic and corrosive gases in the event of a fire, making it safer for indoor installations.

Advantages

This single-mode fiber optic cable provides dependable performance for high-speed data transmission in telecommunications and enterprise environments. The inclusion of OS1 and OS2 standards ensures compatibility with both indoor and outdoor long-distance transmission systems. The LSZH outer jacket enhances safety by reducing smoke and toxic emissions during combustion. Additionally, the distinctive pink color allows for easy visual identification within crowded patch panels and server racks, simplifying cable management and maintenance procedures.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-mode network switches and routers
• Data center and telecommunication room patch connections
• Enterprise local area networks requiring reliable optical links
• Environments where low smoke zero halogen safety standards are mandatory

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not designed for multi-mode fiber optic systems and will not be compatible with equipment requiring multi-mode transceivers. It is also unsuitable for direct outdoor burial or harsh industrial environments unless routed through appropriate protective conduits.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Fibre optic type: OS1 / OS2
• Single-mode 9 µm core
• Connector 1: LC
• Connector 2: SC
• Jacket material: Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH)
• Color: Pink

How to use

Before installation, inspect the LC and SC connectors for any dust or debris, and clean them using appropriate optical cleaning tools if necessary. Gently align the LC connector with the port on the first network device until it clicks into place, ensuring a secure connection. Route the 5-meter cable carefully along designated cable management pathways, avoiding sharp bends that could damage the internal 9 µm fiber optic strand. Finally, plug the SC connector into the corresponding port on the second networking device until fully seated.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment uses LC and SC port interfaces
• Confirm that your system requires single-mode OS1 or OS2 fiber specifications
• Measure the required distance to ensure the 5-meter length is adequate for your setup
• Check building safety codes to determine if LSZH jacket compliance is required

For optimal network performance, avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius during installation and keep dust caps on the connectors until the moment of plugging them into your devices.
