Fibre optic cable ShiverPeaks BS77822 1m SC Yellow

The ShiverPeaks BS77822 1m SC Yellow fibre optic cable is a single-mode OS1/OS2 full duplex patch cable with a 9 µm core diameter and SC connectors on both ends. It is intended for short interconnects within networking racks, patch panels and equipment where reliable high-speed optical transmission is required. The bright yellow jacket aids visual identification in cable bundles and structured cabling environments.

Advantages

This 1-metre cable provides low attenuation and stable single-mode performance thanks to its OS1/OS2 fibre construction and 9 µm core. SC connectors on both ends offer a push-pull coupling mechanism that ensures a secure, repeatable connection. The full duplex design allows simultaneous bidirectional data transfer, supporting common network and telecom applications. The yellow outer jacket improves visibility and routing in data centers and closets.

Suitable for

• Patch panel to switch or router connections in data centers and server rooms
• Interconnects between optical transceivers and optical distribution frames
• Structured building backbones and campus network links requiring single-mode fibre
• Telecommunications equipment requiring SC terminated single-mode links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Single-mode OS1/OS2
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: SC to SC (both ends)
• Length: 1 metre
• Cable jacket colour: Yellow
• Duplex configuration: Full duplex

How to use

Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and tight tie points; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode fibres to prevent increased attenuation. Clean connector endfaces before insertion using appropriate fibre cleaning tools or wipes and inspect with an optical fibre inspection scope if available. Insert the SC connectors into the corresponding SC ports until the push-pull latch engages. For removal, depress the latch and pull straight out to avoid stress on the fibre. Label both ends as needed to simplify identification and management.

Usage recommendations

Use this single-mode SC patch cable for distances and applications suited to OS1/OS2 performance; avoid exceeding recommended bend radii and protect the cable from crushing or prolonged exposure to mechanical stress. Store coiled loosely and secure with non-abrasive ties. Perform endface cleaning and inspection periodically to maintain low-loss connections.
