ACT 0,5 meter LSZH singlemode 9/125 OS2 glasvezel-patchkabel duplex met LC- en SC-stekkers

The ACT fiber patch cable duplex 0.5 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 with LC and SC connectors is a short-range duplex optical cable designed for reliable singlemode data transmission. Its 9/125 µm core and OS2 classification make it suitable for high-speed links and low-loss connections in indoor network environments. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions, improving safety in confined spaces such as data centers and telecom rooms.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable offers stable optical performance with low insertion loss and good return loss characteristics thanks to quality LC and SC terminations. The duplex design supports full-duplex communication between equipment. The LSZH outer jacket provides enhanced fire-safety properties for indoor installations and minimizes toxic fumes. Short 0.5 m length reduces excess cable slack, helping maintain tidy racks and reducing signal reflections from unnecessary cable runs.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects between switches, transceivers and patch panels in data centers
• Telecommunications racks and closet fiber terminations
• Connecting optical transceivers (SFP/SFP+) to patch panels or equipment with LC/SC ports
• Indoor installations requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode, 9/125 µm
• OS classification: OS2 (low-loss singlemode)
• Length: 0.5 meter
• Configuration: Duplex (two fibers)
• Connectors: LC on one end and SC on the other end
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Typical use: Indoor patching and short interconnects

How to use

Install the duplex fiber patch cable by connecting the LC connector to the LC port of the transceiver or device and the SC connector to the corresponding SC port on the patch panel or equipment. Ensure connector endfaces are clean and free of dust before mating to avoid increased insertion loss or damage to interfaces. Route the cable with gentle bends above the minimum bend radius for singlemode fiber and secure it within trays or cable management to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Before installation, inspect and, if necessary, clean both LC and SC connectors using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Avoid excessive bending and tensile stress; maintain recommended bend radius and proper slack management. Use in indoor environments where low smoke and zero halogen emissions are required.
