LOGILINK fiber patch cable LC-Simplex to LC-Simplex OS2 G657.A2, 25 m, yellow (FPSLC25)

LOGILINK fiber patch cable LC-Simplex to LC-Simplex OS2 G657.A2, 25 m, yellow (FPSLC25) is a single-mode optical cable designed for reliable signal transmission in telecom, data center and network infrastructure environments. The cable features LC‑Simplex connectors on both ends and uses OS2-compliant single-mode fiber with G.657.A2 bend-insensitive characteristics to reduce attenuation in tight routing scenarios. With a 25 m length and a yellow outer jacket for easy identification, this patch cable is intended for point-to-point links and backbone extensions where low loss and stable performance are required.

Advantages

The LOGILINK LC-Simplex patch cable delivers low insertion loss and consistent single-mode performance suitable for long-distance connections. Its G.657.A2 fiber type improves bend tolerance compared with standard single-mode fibers, helping to maintain signal integrity in installations with tight bends or limited routing space. The standardized LC-Simplex connectors provide a compact footprint and compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels. The yellow jacket makes the cable easily distinguishable in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber patching between equipment in telecom and ISP networks
• Data center patch panels and inter-rack connections
• Backbone and distribution cabling with moderate distances up to 25 m
• Installations requiring improved bend performance in racks, conduits or trays

When it may not be suitable

This cable uses single-mode OS2 fiber and is not intended for multimode applications or legacy multimode transceivers. It is a passive patch cable for optical connections and does not include transceivers, connectors with angled-polish unless specified, or active components. For distances significantly beyond 25 m or for environments requiring armored or outdoor-rated cables, a different cable construction may be necessary.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode, G.657.A2 (bend-insensitive)
• Specification: OS2 single-mode
• Connector type: LC-Simplex to LC-Simplex
• Length: 25 m
• Jacket color: yellow

How to use

Remove protective caps from the LC-Simplex connectors, align each connector with the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver port and insert until a positive click is felt. Ensure connectors and adapter ports are clean before mating to minimize insertion loss; use an appropriate fiber cleaning tool or lint-free wipes with fiber cleaning solution. Route the cable following existing cable management practices, avoid tight bends below the fiber's minimum bend radius and secure the cable with cable ties or velcro straps without compressing the jacket. When disconnecting, press the connector latch and pull straight out to avoid stressing the ferrule.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility with your equipment: LC connector type and single-mode transceivers or adapters
• Confirm required length and routing paths to ensure 25 m is sufficient
• Check whether indoor jacket and yellow color meet site identification and environmental requirements
• Consider whether additional protection (armoring, outdoor rating) is needed for harsh environments

Usage recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, keep connector endfaces clean, avoid bending the cable beyond recommended radii, and store spare cable loosely coiled. For critical links, perform optical loss testing after installation to verify insertion loss and continuity.
