Fibre optic cable ExertisConnect EXC 392847 15 m LC Yellow

The ExertisConnect EXC 392847 15 m LC Yellow is a single-mode OS2 fibre optic patch cable designed for high-speed, long-distance optical connections. With LC connectors on both ends and a 9 µm core diameter, this 15 metre cable supports full duplex data transmission and is intended for rack-to-rack, patch-panel and equipment interconnects in data centres and structured network environments. The yellow jacket identifies it as single-mode cabling, making it suitable for installations where minimal attenuation and consistent signal integrity are required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable provides low insertion loss and stable optical performance due to its OS2 single-mode design and 9 µm core. LC connectors offer a compact form factor for high-density panels and provide reliable mating with standard LC ports. The 15 m length allows flexible placement of equipment within server rooms and network closets while maintaining full duplex capability for simultaneous bidirectional communication. The cable jacket and connector construction are selected to offer durability for typical indoor networking installations.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, routers and transceivers in data centres
• Patch-panel connections in telecom rooms and wiring closets
• Longer intra-building links where single-mode fibre is required
• High-density installations using LC connector interfaces

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Single-mode OS2
• Connector type: LC to LC (both ends)
• Cable length: 15 m
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Transmission: Full duplex optical communication
• Jacket colour: Yellow (single-mode identification)

How to use

Verify that connected equipment accepts LC connectors and supports single-mode links. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress by following recommended minimum bend radius for single-mode fibre. Insert LC connectors into the corresponding ports until they click, ensuring proper alignment and secure seating. For full duplex operation, use both fibres in the duplex LC cable as paired transmit and receive channels. After installation, test the link with appropriate optical test equipment to confirm acceptable loss and continuity.

Usage recommendations

Wear protective eyewear when working near active optical transmitters; avoid looking directly into fibre ends. Keep connector end-faces clean—use appropriate fibre cleaning tools and dust caps when connectors are not in use. For permanent installations, follow local cabling standards for routing, support and strain relief to maintain performance and extend cable life.
