Network Cable Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 9/125 µm LC/ST yellow 50.0 m

The Ekivalan LWL Duplex Patch Cable OS2 9/125 µm LC/ST in yellow, 50.0 m long, is a single-mode fiber patch cord designed for high-speed optical data transmission in structured networks. The cable uses a 9/125 µm OS2 fiber core optimized for low attenuation and long-distance links, terminated with an LC connector on one end and an ST connector on the other. The yellow jacket provides standard color coding for single-mode installations and facilitates cable identification and management in racks, patch panels, and conduits.

Advantages

The patch cable delivers low insertion loss and stable single-mode performance across typical telecom and data center wavelengths. Its LC connector provides a compact footprint suited to high-density panels, while the ST connector offers a bayonet-style coupling for legacy equipment. The 9/125 µm fiber specification supports long-distance links with minimal dispersion, and the 50.0 m length covers a wide range of in-building and campus interconnect needs. The yellow outer jacket aids visual organization and conforms to common color conventions for OS2 single-mode cables.

Suitable for

• Backbone and horizontal fiber cabling in enterprise networks
• Interconnects between patch panels, switches, and transceivers
• Data center cross-connections and equipment racks
• Telecom and ISP distribution links requiring single-mode fiber
• Laboratory and testing setups where LC to ST connections are needed

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode OS2, 9/125 µm core/cladding
• Connector types: LC connector (one end) and ST connector (other end)
• Configuration: duplex (two fibers)
• Length: 50.0 meters
• Jacket color: yellow (single-mode identification)
• Typical applications: long-reach optical links, indoor and sheltered outdoor routing

How to use

Inspect both connectors and ensure dust caps are removed before insertion. Route the duplex cable without tight bends and avoid kinking; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended for 9/125 µm fiber. Plug the LC connector into the LC port and the ST connector into the ST port, ensuring secure seating of each connector. For patching in racks, secure and label both ends to maintain organized cable management. Perform an optical power or continuity test after installation to confirm acceptable insertion loss and end-to-end signal quality.

Usage recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment to prevent contamination of ferrules. Use appropriate dust caps when connectors are not in use, and avoid tight bends or tension on the cable. For outdoor-exposed runs, use suitable conduits or protective pathways as the product is intended for indoor and sheltered outdoor use rather than direct burial. When mixing connector types, verify compatibility of transceivers and patch panels to ensure reliable LC-to-ST connections.
