Network Cable Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 9/125 µm SC/ST yellow 3.0 m

The Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 is a high-performance fiber optic solution designed for reliable data transmission in professional networking environments. Featuring a 9/125 µm single-mode fiber construction, this cable ensures minimal signal attenuation and high bandwidth capacity over longer distances. The 3.0-meter length provides flexibility for connecting hardware within server racks or between networking devices, while the durable yellow jacket allows for easy identification in complex cable management systems.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional signal integrity due to its OS2 single-mode fiber standard, making it suitable for high-speed data applications. The combination of SC and ST connectors ensures compatibility with a wide range of legacy and modern networking equipment. Its duplex design allows for simultaneous bidirectional data transmission, which is essential for maintaining efficient network throughput. The robust construction ensures long-term stability and resistance to environmental interference, providing a dependable link for critical infrastructure.

Suitable for

• High-speed fiber optic network backbones
• Connecting switches, routers, and patch panels
• Telecommunications and data center infrastructure
• Long-distance data transmission within enterprise networks

This cable may not be suitable for short-range connections where multi-mode fiber (OM3/OM4) is already established as the standard, as it is specifically optimized for single-mode applications. It is also not intended for outdoor use without additional protective conduit or shielding.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: OS2 9/125 µm single-mode
• Connector types: SC to ST
• Cable length: 3.0 meters
• Configuration: Duplex
• Color: Yellow

To use this cable, simply insert the SC connector into the corresponding port on your networking device until it clicks into place, and secure the ST connector by pushing and twisting it into the bayonet-style port. Ensure that both connection points are clean and free of dust before installation to maintain optimal signal quality. Route the cable carefully through cable management trays to avoid sharp bends that could damage the internal glass fibers.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your networking equipment supports SC and ST interface types
• Ensure your hardware is compatible with single-mode OS2 fiber specifications
• Measure the required distance to confirm that 3.0 meters is sufficient for your setup

Always handle fiber optic cables with care, avoiding excessive tension or tight bending radii, and keep the connector end-faces protected with dust caps when not in use to prevent signal degradation.
