Fibre optic cable LANBERG FO-SUSU-SS11-0020-YE SC‑SC 2 m G.657.A1 (yellow)

LANBERG FO-SUSU-SS11-0020-YE SC‑SC 2 m G.657.A1 (yellow) is a 2 m single-mode fibre optic patch cable with SC connectors on both ends and UPC polishing. It uses G.657.A1 fibre with 9/125 µm core/cladding diameter, simplex construction and an LSZH outer coating. The cable is intended for low-bend-sensitivity single-mode transmission in high-density networks and fibre links, enabling reliable connections between transceivers, switches, patch panels and other optical equipment.

Advantages

The G.657.A1 fibre minimizes bend losses and supports installations where tight routing is required. SC connectors with UPC polish provide low insertion loss (< 0.25 dB) and high return loss (> 50 dB), ensuring stable single-mode signal quality. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire and the 3.0 mm diameter offers a balance of flexibility and mechanical protection. The cable's operating temperature range from -40 to 85 °C makes it suitable for a variety of indoor and controlled-environment applications.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and fibre distribution frames in data centres
• Connecting optical transceivers and switches
• High-density telecom and enterprise cabling
• Short indoor fibre links and equipment interconnects

How to use

Before installation, inspect connector endfaces for dirt or damage and clean with appropriate fibre cleaning tools. Route the simplex cable following rack or conduit paths, avoiding sharp bends below the 10 mm minimum bend radius. Insert SC connectors into corresponding SC ports on transceivers, patch panels or switches until they click into place. After connection, verify link quality using a suitable optical power meter or transceiver diagnostics to confirm insertion and return loss meet system requirements.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, handle the G.657.A1 fibre carefully to avoid kinks and keep connectors capped when not in use. Use strain relief and cable management to prevent repeated stress at connector interfaces and maintain optimal signal performance in high-density installations.
