Fiber Patch Cable LC–LC Duplex Singlemode 9/125, 1 m — EATON N370-01M

Duplex singlemode fiber patch cable LC–LC, 1 m length, by EATON. This factory-terminated 9/125 µm zipcord cable is built with glass singlemode fiber and an OFNR-rated PVC jacket for riser installations. Both ends are fitted with LC duplex connectors for LC–LC links and each connector undergoes insertion loss testing (typical 0.2 dB) with test results supplied with the cable. The polished, beveled endfaces facilitate smooth connector mating and low return loss for short interconnects in telecom, data center and network distribution environments.

Advantages

The EATON LC–LC duplex singlemode cable provides consistent insertion loss and factory-verified performance on every connector, ensuring predictable link budgets. Its 9/125 µm glass core supports long-distance singlemode transmission characteristics while the OFNR-rated PVC jacket meets riser fire-safety requirements. Compact LC duplex terminations save panel space and enable high-density patching in racks and enclosures.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects between telecom or network equipment in data centers
• Riser cabling runs and vertical distribution within buildings
• Connections between switches, transceivers and patch panels with LC ports
• FDDI-rated backbone or legacy singlemode links requiring LC terminations

How to use

Route the 1 m LC–LC duplex cable between LC ports on networking equipment, transceivers or patch panels, observing recommended bend radii for singlemode fiber and avoiding sharp bends or crush points. Remove protective dust caps from LC connectors before insertion and verify orientation of the duplex clip for correct transmit/receive alignment. If precise link loss documentation is required, review the provided insertion loss test results supplied with the cable before finalizing connections.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean, dry environment; keep connector endfaces covered until installation. Maintain minimum bend radius and avoid tight coils to preserve singlemode performance. Use LC dust caps and clean connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools prior to mating to ensure the tested insertion loss is maintained in service.
