Patch cord Duplex SM OEM PCSCSC9D2-2L 2 m, 2 mm cable diameter

Duplex single-mode (SM) patch cord OEM PCSCSC9D2-2L is a 2-metre fibre optic cable designed for duplex connections between network equipment. The cable has a 2 mm outer diameter and comes with OEM-specified PCSCSC9D2-2L connectors configured for single-mode operation. It is intended for use where low-loss, point-to-point single-mode links are required in telecom, data centre and rack environments.

Advantages

This duplex SM patch cord provides consistent optical performance for single-mode links with a compact 2 mm cable diameter that reduces space usage in cable trays and racks. Factory-terminated OEM connectors ensure reliable mating and repeatable insertion loss over multiple connections. The 2 m length balances reach and manageability for equipment-to-equipment cabling inside racks and enclosures.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-mode transceivers and switches inside network racks
• Point-to-point links between patch panels and active equipment in data centres
• Telecom distribution frames and central office cross-connects requiring duplex SM fibre
• Lab and test bench setups where 2 m reach is sufficient

• Configuration: duplex (paired fibres)
• Cable length: 2 m
• Cable outer diameter: 2 mm
• Connector type: OEM PCSCSC9D2-2L specified connectors, factory-terminated

How to use

Route the duplex patch cord between the two equipment ports or between a patch panel and active device, taking care to maintain the correct transmit/receive orientation for duplex connections. Avoid tight bends; adhere to the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for 2 mm fibre cable. Insert connectors into compatible single-mode ports until a positive click is felt and verify link status on the connected devices. For best results, inspect connector endfaces and clean them if necessary before mating.

Usage recommendations

Store the patch cord coiled without sharp kinks, avoid excessive pulling force on the connectors, and perform endface cleaning prior to installation to minimise insertion loss. Use protective dust caps when the cable is not in use.
