Fiber optic patch cable LOGILINK FPSLC50, OS2 G.657.A2, 2x LC-Simplex connectors, 50 m, yellow

The LOGILINK FPSLC50 is a 50 m single-mode fiber optic patch cable designed for low-loss signal transmission in telecom and data networks. It uses G.657.A2 (OS2) fiber optimized for reduced bending loss and stable optical performance, and is fitted with two LC-Simplex connectors. The cable’s yellow jacket provides clear visual identification for single-mode links and simplifies routing and maintenance in patch panels and backbone installations.

Advantages

This fiber optic patch cable offers low insertion loss and reliable single-mode transmission suitable for long-distance links. The G.657.A2 fiber specification improves bend tolerance compared with older single-mode types, reducing performance degradation in constrained routing scenarios. LC-Simplex connectors provide compact terminations compatible with common patch panels and transceivers, while the 50 m length covers typical runs between equipment cabinets or across floors.

Suitable for

• Telecom and ISP backbone links requiring single-mode transmission
• Data center and server room patching between racks and panels
• Fiber-to-the-building or fiber-to-the-desk short- to mid-range backbone runs
• Connections to SFP/SFP+ transceivers and LC-based ports

When it may not be suitable

This cable is a single-mode (OS2/G.657.A2) type and is not appropriate where multimode fiber is required or where mismatched fiber types would cause increased attenuation. It is intended as a patch/patching or backbone cable and may not be the best choice for indoor use where specific flame-retardant or plenum-rated jackets are required unless those ratings are confirmed separately.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode G.657.A2 (OS2)
• Connector type: LC-Simplex to LC-Simplex, 2x simplex
• Length: 50 meters
• Jacket color: yellow
• Application: patching, backbone and long-distance single-mode links

How to use

Route the LOGILINK FPSLC50 cable along the planned cable path avoiding sharp bends and tight radii. Terminate each LC-Simplex connector into compatible LC ports on patch panels, switches or transceiver modules. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to minimize connection loss; use dust caps when not connected. Secure the cable with appropriate cable management to prevent strain at connectors and maintain recommended bend radius during installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your equipment uses LC-style single-mode ports and that single-mode fiber is required for your application
• Verify the needed cable length and routing to ensure 50 m is adequate
• Check any building or safety requirements for jacket ratings (e.g., plenum or riser) if applicable
• Ensure connector polarity and simplex configuration fit your patching scheme

Usage recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, clean LC connectors before each connection, avoid bending below the specified minimum radius, and label both ends for easier identification within patch panels and backbone runs.
