Fiber optic cable QOLTEC 54005 SC–SC 1 m, 9 µm singlemode, duplex, yellow

QOLTEC 54005 is a 1 m fiber optic patch cable with SC–SC connectors designed for singlemode networks. The cable has a 9 µm core suitable for singlemode transmission and is built for duplex connections. With yellow outer jacket and standard SC connectors on both ends, this patchcord is intended for short interconnects between switches, optical transceivers, fiber distribution panels and other passive or active equipment in telecom and datacom environments.

Advantages

The cable provides stable singlemode transmission over short distances with low insertion loss when used with compatible SC interfaces. Duplex configuration allows simultaneous bidirectional data transfer without additional cables. The yellow sheath facilitates quick visual identification in structured cabling systems, and the industry-standard SC connectors ensure broad compatibility with network devices and fiber panels.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between network switches and patch panels in access or aggregation racks
• Connecting optical transceivers (SFP/SFP+) to patch panels or couplers
• Short fiber links inside server rooms and telecom racks
• Replacement or extension of existing singlemode patchcords in datacom installations

Key specifications

• Cable type: singlemode fiber optic patchcord
• Core diameter: 9 µm (singlemode)
• Connector type: SC to SC (duplex)
• Length: 1 m
• Jacket colour: yellow for singlemode identification

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness before installation and clean with appropriate fiber cleaning tools if required. Insert each SC connector into the corresponding SC adapter or transceiver port until it clicks into place, ensuring correct duplex orientation if the link requires specific transmit/receive alignment. Avoid sharp bends and secure the cable to cable management accessories to maintain the minimum bend radius and reduce stress on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use this singlemode SC–SC patchcord in indoor, rack-based environments and pair it with compatible SC adapters and transceivers. Clean connectors prior to mating, avoid excessive bending, and route the cable through proper management to minimize attenuation and connector wear.
