Fiber Optic Cable StarTech.com SMFIBLCLC7 7m Single-Mode Duplex 9/125

The StarTech.com SMFIBLCLC7 7m Single-Mode Duplex 9/125 fiber optic cable provides LC-to-LC connectivity for high-speed data transmission over Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks. This single-mode duplex cable uses 9/125 micron fiber (OS1) to deliver low signal loss and high bandwidth for long-distance links. The cable jacket is LSZH (Low-Smoke, Zero-Halogen), reducing smoke, toxicity and corrosive gases in case of fire, making it suitable for indoor, industrial and commercial installations where safety standards are required.

Advantages

Individually tested and certified to meet optical insertion loss limits, the SMFIBLCLC7 ensures compatibility and reliable performance. The LC-to-LC connectors provide straightforward plug-and-play installation in duplex single-mode applications. The LSZH flame-retardant jacket offers enhanced safety in enclosed environments and helps meet building-code and workplace requirements. The cable is covered by the manufacturer’s lifetime warranty.

Suitable for

• Long-distance single-mode links in data centers and central offices
• Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks
• Industrial, commercial and educational facilities with safety requirements
• Indoor residential installations where LSZH cable is required

How to use

Route the cable between LC ports on single-mode equipment, ensuring connectors are clean before insertion to avoid contamination and signal loss. Insert each LC connector into the corresponding duplex port until it clicks. Use cable management accessories to maintain bend radius and avoid sharp bends that could increase attenuation. For best results, verify optical loss with appropriate test equipment after installation.

Usage recommendations

The cable is intended for indoor use and environments where low-smoke, zero-halogen materials are required. Avoid excessive bending, crushing or exposure to moisture. Clean connectors with approved fiber cleaning tools before connecting and perform post-installation optical tests to confirm link performance.
