Fiber Optic Patch Cable LOGILINK FPSLS25 SC (simplex) to LC (simplex) OS2 G657.A2 25 m

The LOGILINK FPSLS25 fiber optic patch cable is a 25 m single-mode connection with SC simplex on one end and LC simplex on the other. It uses OS2 grade fiber (G.657.A2) designed for low attenuation and improved bend performance, making it suitable for structured cabling in telecom environments, data centres and optical patch panels. The cable provides a simple SC–LC termination format for point-to-point links and cross‑connects where a longer reach and minimal signal loss are required.

Advantages

This patch cable combines single-mode OS2 fiber optics with G.657.A2 bend-insensitive characteristics to reduce signal loss in tight-routing scenarios. The SC simplex and LC simplex connectors offer reliable mechanical mating for rack-mounted equipment and patch panels. With a 25 metre length, the cable suits mid-range runs while maintaining low attenuation for long-distance transmission and consistent optical performance.

Suitable for

• Telecommunications backbone links and optical distribution networks
• Data centre cross-connects between switches, transceivers and patch panels
• Office or campus fibre links requiring SC to LC termination
• Indoor installations where routing involves bends or constrained spaces

When it may not be suitable

This single-mode SC–LC patch cable is not intended for multi-mode systems or for equipment requiring duplex connectors on both ends. It may not be appropriate for very short patching inside a cabinet where a much shorter cable would be neater, or for extreme outdoor installations unless additional sheathing and environmental protection are applied.

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode, OS2 (G.657.A2)
• Connector configuration: SC simplex to LC simplex
• Length: 25 m
• Application: indoor optical patching, data centre and telecom
• Bend performance: enhanced bend-insensitive fibre standard

How to use

Route the cable from the source transceiver or patch panel to the destination port, avoiding tight bends and excessive tension. Insert the SC connector into an SC adapter or port until it clicks and latch the LC connector into the corresponding LC socket. For best performance, keep connector endfaces clean and use dust caps when the cable is not connected. Test the optical link after installation with an appropriate light source and power meter or OTDR if required.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your equipment and patch panels use SC and LC simplex terminations and are compatible with single-mode OS2 fibre.
• Confirm that a 25 m cable length fits your rack layout and does not create excess slack or strain.
• Consider whether additional environmental protection or different jacket types are needed for outdoor or harsh environments.

Usage recommendations

Maintain clean connector endfaces, avoid sharp bends below the manufacturer’s bend radius, and secure the cable to prevent mechanical stress. Use appropriate adapters or pigtails when interfacing with different connector types, and perform optical testing after installation to verify insertion loss and continuity.
