Fibre optic cable LANBERG FO-SASA-SS31-0050-WH, 5 m, G.657.B3, SC–SC, white

LANBERG FO-SASA-SS31-0050-WH is a 5 m single-mode fibre optic patch cable with G.657.B3 fibre and SC–SC APC polished connectors. It is built as a simplex 9/125 µm single-mode cable with a 3.0 mm LSZH jacket, designed for low-bend-loss performance and reliable optical transmission in data centres, telecom racks and short- to medium-distance interconnections.

Advantages

The cable combines G.657.B3 fibre with APC-polished SC connectors to deliver low insertion loss and high return loss, ensuring stable signal integrity. Its LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire, while the 3.0 mm diameter and 5 mm minimum bend radius allow installation in confined spaces and dense patching environments. The specified operating temperature range supports use in a variety of indoor and controlled-environment applications.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and inter-rack links
• Telecom distribution panels and rack connections
• Short- to medium-distance single-mode links where bend radius is critical
• Environments requiring low-smoke zero-halogen cable jackets

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces before installation and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Route the 5 m simplex cable through cable management paths, avoiding sharp edges and exceeding the minimum bend radius of 5 mm. Insert SC APC connectors into matching SC APC ports, ensuring a secure mechanical connection. Use standard patch-panel practices in data centres and telecom racks to label and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, store and handle the cable to prevent contamination of APC ferrules; use dust caps until final connection, maintain bend radii above the 5 mm minimum, and perform optical loss testing after installation to verify insertion and return loss meet system requirements.
