Fibre Optic Cable Tecline SC-LC 2m

The Tecline SC-LC 2m fibre optic cable is a single-mode OS2 patch cable with a 9 µm core diameter, designed for high-speed, low-loss data transmission over short to medium distances. The cable comes terminated with an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, providing compatibility between equipment that uses these common fiber interfaces. It supports full-duplex communication and is intended for indoor network installations where signal integrity and minimal attenuation are required.

Advantages

This SC-LC cable offers low insertion loss and high return loss consistent with OS2 single-mode specifications, enabling stable signal transmission for data and voice networks. The 2 m length provides a flexible connection between racks, switches and transceivers while minimizing excess slack. Durable connector housings and precise ferrule alignment reduce connection variability and help maintain consistent optical performance over repeated mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-mode transceivers (SC to LC) in data centres and server rooms
• Patch-panel to switch or media converter links
• Telecommunications and fiber-to-the-desk connections within buildings
• Testing and temporary link setups where a 2 m single-mode cable is required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: single-mode (OS2)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector types: SC (one end) and LC (other end)
• Length: 2 m
• Mode: full duplex
• Typical application: indoor patching and equipment interconnect

How to use

Route the Tecline SC-LC 2m fibre optic cable avoiding sharp bends and tight radii; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode fiber to prevent increased attenuation. Clean connector end faces before mating using appropriate fiber cleaning tools or wipes. Insert the SC connector into the SC adapter and the LC connector into the LC receptacle until they click or seat securely. For disconnection, depress the LC latch and gently pull the SC connector straight out to avoid sideways stress on the ferrule.

Usage recommendations

Store unused fiber ends with protective dust caps to prevent contamination. Perform insertion loss and continuity checks after installation, and avoid routing the cable near strong electromagnetic sources to preserve signal quality. For permanent installations, plan cable management to prevent repeated flexing at connector ends.
