Duplex Single‑mode Fiber Patch Cord PCLCLC9D1-2L 1 m, 2 mm jacket

Duplex Single‑mode Fiber Patch Cord PCLCLC9D1-2L 1 m, 2 mm jacket provides two single‑mode fibers in a duplex arrangement for short interconnections. The 1 m length and 2 mm outer jacket create a compact, flexible cable suited to tight routing in telecom racks, data centres and patch panels. The connector configuration supports standard single‑mode terminations and is designed to deliver low insertion loss and consistent signal transmission between network equipment.

Advantages

The duplex construction contains two single‑mode fiber cores within a single assembly, reducing cable bulk while maintaining separate transmit and receive channels. The 2 mm jacket balances flexibility and mechanical protection, simplifying installation in constrained pathways. The 1 m length minimizes excess slack in patching environments and helps maintain tidy cable management. Overall, the cord is designed to provide reliable optical continuity and predictable performance for short patching links.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting equipment in telecommunications racks and cabinets
• Patch panel connections in data centres and server rooms
• Short intra-rack and inter-rack fiber links
• Optical transceiver to switch or router patching

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single‑mode duplex
• Length: 1 m
• Outer jacket diameter: 2 mm
• Construction: two fibers in duplex assembly
• Intended use: patch cord for short optical connections

How to use

Route the duplex patch cord between the desired ports, observing polarity for transmit and receive channels. Insert connectors cleanly into the appropriate adapter or transceiver until a tactile click or secure seating is achieved. Avoid sharp bends and maintain bend radii consistent with single‑mode fiber handling; ensure the 2 mm jacket is not excessively kinked or pinched during cable management. For removal, grasp the connector body rather than pulling the cable jacket to prevent stress on the fiber terminations.

Usage recommendations

Inspect and clean connector endfaces before mating to minimize insertion loss and avoid contamination. Use cable ties or routing accessories to secure the cord without compressing the 2 mm jacket. For installations requiring longer runs or different mechanical protection, select an appropriate jacket diameter or armoured option. Store spare cords coiled loosely to preserve fiber integrity.
