Network Cable Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 9/125 µm LC APC/LC APC Yellow 50.0 m

The Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 9/125 µm LC APC/LC APC Yellow 50.0 m is a single-mode fiber patch cable designed for reliable, low-loss optical connections in telecom and data center environments. With LC APC connectors on both ends and a 9/125 µm core/cladding geometry, the cable supports long-haul, high-bandwidth transmission and is color-coded yellow to indicate single-mode OS2 fiber. Its 50.0 m length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack or room-to-room connections while maintaining consistent signal quality.

Advantages

This cable offers low insertion loss and high return loss due to the angled physical contact (APC) polished LC connectors, reducing back-reflection for sensitive optical links. The OS2 single-mode fiber with 9/125 µm core/cladding is optimized for long-distance transmission and minimal attenuation. A 50.0 m jacketed length balances reach and manageability for typical network installations. The yellow outer jacket makes identification straightforward in mixed-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Backbone fiber connections in local area networks and data centers
• Inter-rack and inter-room optical links requiring single-mode performance
• Telecommunications equipment and optical transceiver connections
• Environments where low back-reflection is required, such as analog RF-over-fiber

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode OS2
• Core/cladding diameter: 9/125 µm
• Connector type: LC APC to LC APC duplex
• Cable length: 50.0 m
• Cable jacket color: yellow (single-mode identification)
• Polish: angled physical contact (APC) for reduced back-reflection

How to use

Inspect connectors and fiber ends for cleanliness before insertion. Route the 50.0 m patch cable between devices, avoiding sharp bends and tight tension; maintain minimum bend radius as specified by the equipment or fiber manufacturer. Insert the LC APC connectors into matching LC APC ports, ensuring the keyed orientation matches the receptacle and that connectors seat fully. Secure cable runs in racks or trays to prevent movement and to maintain stable optical performance.

Usage recommendations

Clean connectors with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before each connection and store unused ends with protective caps. Avoid bending the cable beyond recommended limits and protect it from mechanical stress and moisture where applicable. Use LC APC to LC APC only when mating with APC-equipped ports to preserve low back-reflection characteristics.
