LC/SC Single Mode Fiber Cable OS2/UPC/Simplex/LSZH
At a Glance
SIMPLEX OS2 CABLE: Single Mode Simplex OS2 Fiber Cable is immune to EMI and optimized for 40G/100Gbps networks; Supports bi-directional (BiDi) transmission over a single fiber; Ideal for space-constrained installations requiring minimal fiber count
QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: LC/SC-UPC ends for improved return loss over PC polish; Bend Insensitive fiber core housed in Aramid-reinforced jacket for a loaded bend radius of 10mm
SAFETY AND RELIABILITY: Individually tested for guaranteed performance; Test report included; LSZH jacket emits low toxic fumes if combusted; Safe for enclosed/poorly ventilated spaces; Attenuation value under 0.35dB/km outperforms industry standards
COMPATIBILITY: Simplex Single Mode Fiber Patch Cord supports 40G/100G networks; Backward compatible with OS1; High micro-bend resistance facilitates tight bends in complex installations; Ideal for point-to-point setups or single-fiber NICs and SFPs
SPECS: 2 meter (6.6 foot); OS2 Single Mode; LC/SC (UPC) Simplex; 100Gbps; 9/125µm; 1260-1625nm Laser Optimized; Insertion Loss: ≤0.3dB; Return Loss: ≥55dB; Cable OD: 2mm; Bend Radius: 10mm (0.39in) loaded/unloaded
Overview
OS2 LC to LC Single Mode Simplex Fiber Optic Patch cable facilitates connectivity across 40G/100G networks. It supports Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across an extended wavelength range of 1260-1625nm, improving channel isolation for optimal signal strength over long distances.
Compatibility
Connect to single-fiber networking devices including simplex patch panels, SFP transceivers, and fiber NICs. This 9/125µm OS2 simplex single mode fiber patch cord is backward compatible with OS1 networks, ensuring a reliable connection in legacy fiber environments.
Engineered for Optimal Performance
Precision- manufactured ceramic ferrules ensure accurate fiber alignment for an insertion loss below 0.3dB. Ultra Physical Contact (UPC)-polished LC to LC fiber ends greatly improve return loss characteristics over older PC polishing techniques. The Bend Insensitive fiber core is surrounded by a layer of low refractive index material. This material reduces the amount of light that can escape the fiber cable by reflecting the light back into the fiber. The OS2 fiber patch cord is engineered for low attenuation and performance that exceeds ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50 type B1.3/B6.a1 industry standards.
LSZH Cable Jacket
Housed in a Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket, the OS2 fiber cable emits low smoke and toxic fumes when exposed to extreme heat or in the event of a fire. This enables safer cable installations in areas with poor ventilation including some industrial settings, self-contained environments such as trains and aircraft, as well as residential settings where compliance with building codes must be considered.
Each OS2 fiber cable is individually tested for insertion loss performance and includes a test report, for guaranteed compatibility and 100% reliability.
