Fiber Optic Cable StarTech.com SMFIBLCSC10 10m Single-Mode Duplex 9/125

The StarTech.com SMFIBLCSC10 is a 10 m single-mode duplex fiber optic patch cable with 9/125 µm (OS1) fiber and LC to SC connectors. Designed for high-speed, high-bandwidth data transmission over Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks, this cable supports duplex single-mode applications and is suitable for long-distance networking. The cable uses a LSZH (Low-Smoke, Zero-Halogen) jacket to reduce smoke, toxicity and corrosive gases in the event of fire.

Advantages

This LC to SC single-mode duplex cable provides reliable optical performance with individually tested and certified insertion loss to ensure compatibility and consistent signal quality. The 9/125 µm core supports long-distance, high-bandwidth links. The LSZH flame-retardant jacket minimizes smoke and halogen emissions, making the cable appropriate for industrial, commercial and regulated building environments. The product is backed by StarTech.com’s lifetime warranty.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet links
• Fibre Channel networks
• Long-distance single-mode connections between equipment racks or buildings
• Installations requiring LSZH jackets (data centers, offices, schools, industrial sites)

How to use

Determine the required run length and ensure both ends of the network devices accept LC and SC connectors. Route the cable through cable management and conduit as needed, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until they click into place. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, test insertion loss and continuity with appropriate optical test equipment.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer, keep connector endfaces clean using suitable fiber cleaning tools, and store spare cables in a protective coil to prevent kinks. Use LSZH cabling where local fire codes or indoor air-quality considerations require low-smoke, zero-halogen materials.
