Network Cable SC/UPC-SC/UPC Single Mode Duplex 3.0mm LSZH Yellow 1m

This SC/UPC-SC/UPC Single Mode Duplex 3.0mm LSZH Yellow 1m fiber optic cable provides a straightforward, low-loss point-to-point connection for single-mode networks. The cable pairs two SC/UPC connectors on each end in a duplex configuration and is jacketed with a 3.0mm Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) outer sheath. Designed for short interconnect runs, cross-connects and patching in equipment racks, patch panels and optical distribution frames, the cable delivers consistent single-mode performance and conventional handling characteristics in data center and telecom environments.

Advantages

The LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke and halogen gas emission in case of fire and meets safety preferences for indoor installations. The SC/UPC connectors provide low back-reflection and stable optical contact suitable for single-mode transmission. At 3.0mm diameter the cable offers a balance between flexibility and mechanical protection, while the 1 meter length simplifies neat patching between adjacent devices without excess slack. The bright yellow jacket improves visibility and standard identification for single-mode fiber.

Suitable for

• Patch panels and rack-to-rack connections in data centers
• Equipment interconnects in telecommunications rooms
• Optical distribution frames and cross-connects
• Fiber patching between single-mode transceivers and switches

How to use

Inspect connectors and ports for dust or contamination before insertion. Align the SC/UPC connectors with the corresponding SC ports and insert until a secure click or positive engagement is felt. Avoid sharp bends and maintain a minimum bend radius consistent with single-mode fiber handling to prevent signal attenuation. For best results, follow standard optical testing procedures after installation to verify insertion loss and continuity.

Usage recommendations

Store and route the cable away from sources of mechanical damage and excessive heat. Use appropriate cable management and strain relief in racks and panels. Clean connector end-faces with fiber-grade wipes and cleaning tools before mating. Prefer LSZH cabling for enclosed spaces where low smoke and halogen-free properties are required.
