InLine LC/LC 9/125µm OS2 Duplex Fiber Optic Cable 1m

The InLine LC/LC 9/125µm OS2 Duplex Fiber Optic Cable 1m is a high-quality fiber optical duplex cable featuring precision LC connectors on both ends. Engineered with a 9/125µm OS2 single-mode fiber core, it is built to deliver high-speed data transmission and reliable network connectivity for demanding environments. Measuring 1 meter in length and supporting full duplex communication, this patch cable serves as an efficient solution for linking telecommunication equipment, network switches, and patch panels within local area networks and modern data centers. Constructed with a low smoke zero halogen jacket, it provides enhanced safety by minimizing toxic emissions in the event of fire, making it a dependable choice for structured cabling installations.

Advantages

This single-mode fiber optic cable ensures exceptional signal integrity and minimal attenuation over long distances thanks to its advanced OS2 core specification. The inclusion of durable LC connectors on both ends allows for secure and stable connections in high-density patching environments. Its halogen-free LSZH jacket material enhances safety standards in enclosed server rooms and office buildings. Additionally, each cable comes with an individual test report verifying its performance quality, ensuring that it meets strict operational requirements right out of the package.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches and routers in data centers
• Linking telecommunication equipment and patch panels
• Local area network installations requiring single-mode OS2 performance
• Short-distance high-speed data transmission in server racks

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for connections that require multi-mode fiber infrastructure or standard copper RJ45 Ethernet interfaces. Furthermore, the 1-meter length limits its use strictly to short-distance connections, such as linking adjacent devices within the same rack or enclosure.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 m
• Fiber optic type: Single-mode OS2 9/125µm
• Connector type 1: LC male
• Connector type 2: LC male
• Duplex support: Full duplex
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Cable diameter: 3.0 mm (dual construction)
• Color: Yellow

How to use

To use the fiber optic patch cable, first remove it from its packaging and inspect the connectors for any dust or debris. Gently remove the protective dust caps from the LC plugs on both ends. Align the LC connector with the corresponding port on your network switch, patch panel, or transceiver, and push it straight in until a click is heard, confirming a secure latch. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius and avoid applying excessive pulling tension during routing to maintain optimal signal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your network hardware uses LC interface ports
• Confirm that your existing network infrastructure relies on 9/125µm OS2 single-mode fiber
• Check that the 1-meter length is sufficient for the distance between your devices
• Ensure compliance with local building safety codes regarding LSZH jacket requirements

Usage recommendations

Always inspect and clean fiber optic connectors using approved cleaning tools before mating them to equipment ports. Avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress on the cable during and after installation to ensure long-term network reliability.
