Fibre optic cable LANBERG FP-SCAP-SE21-1202-MC 12x SC/APC G.657.A1 9µm multicolour

Lanberg FP-SCAP-SE21-1202-MC is a set of 12 single-mode fibre optic pigtails, each 2 m long and 0.9 mm in diameter, terminated with SC/APC connectors. The product uses G.657.A1 (often referred to as OS2-compatible) 9/125 µm fibre and features a multicolour LSZH jacket that simplifies identification of individual fibres during installation and maintenance. The Easy Strip construction provides straightforward stripping and termination work while preserving the low-bend-loss properties required for modern telecom and data centre cabling.

Advantages

The pre-terminated SC/APC connectors ensure consistent optical performance and repeatable insertion loss across all 12 pigtails. Use of G.657.A1 single-mode fibre provides improved tolerance to tight bends compared with older single-mode types, reducing the risk of signal degradation in constrained pathways. The LSZH outer coating reduces toxic smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire and the multicolour jacket enables fast identification of individual fibres for patching and splicing tasks.

Suitable for

• Optical patching in data centres and server rooms
• Interconnects between telecommunication equipment
• FTTx and building backbone installations requiring low-bend-loss single-mode cabling
• Splice trays and fibre distribution panels where colour-coded identification is needed

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode G.657.A1 (9/125 µm)
• Connector type: SC/APC on each pigtail
• Number of pigtails: 12
• Length: 2 m per pigtail
• Coating: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Outer diameter: 0.9 mm per fibre
• Jacket: multicolour identification

How to use

Prepare the fibre distribution panel or splice tray according to the facility layout and routing plan. Strip the fibre coating following the Easy Strip guidelines, taking care to avoid microbends. Insert each SC/APC connector into the corresponding adapter or fusion splice as required, ensuring the angled APC endfaces mate correctly to maintain low reflectance. Secure pigtails in strain relief and manage excess slack in loops with recommended bend radii to preserve low-bend-loss performance.

Usage recommendations

Handle connectors with protective caps until installation and keep endfaces clean. Maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius for G.657.A1 fibre and avoid sharp bends or kinks. Use appropriate cleaning tools for APC connectors and verify insertion loss and return loss after installation to ensure compliance with system requirements.
