Fibre Optic Cable ShiverPeaks BS77824 3m SC Yellow

The ShiverPeaks BS77824 3m SC Yellow fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch cord with a 9 µm core diameter engineered for OS1/OS2 environments. At three metres in length and equipped with SC connectors on both ends, it provides full duplex communication and is intended for high-speed data transmission with low attenuation. The yellow jacket and SC terminations make the cable easy to identify and install in racks, patch panels and fibre distribution frames.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable offers predictable single-mode performance compatible with OS1/OS2 standards and a consistent 9 µm core for minimal modal dispersion. The SC connectors provide secure push-pull coupling and repeatable low-loss connections. The 3 m length balances reach and neat cable management in tight spaces, while the yellow outer sheath assists in quick visual identification in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching between equipment and distribution panels
• Enterprise network backbone links and inter-rack connections
• Telecommunications terminations requiring SC connectors
• Laboratory or test-bench setups where a stable single-mode connection is needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: SC to SC
• Core diameter: 9 µm (single-mode)
• Supported fiber class: OS1/OS2 single-mode
• Communication mode: Full duplex
• Jacket colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the ShiverPeaks 3m SC cable between the two SC-compatible ports, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion. Insert each SC connector into the corresponding adapter or port until it clicks into place for a secure push-pull connection. Avoid tight bends or kinks; maintain the manufacturer's minimum bend radius to prevent increased attenuation. For disconnection, depress the SC latch and pull straight out without twisting.

Usage recommendations

Inspect and clean connector end faces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before each connection. Use labelled cable management and strain relief to prevent stress on terminations, and store spare cords in protective reels or bags to preserve connector condition and performance.
