ACT 15 meter Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist glasvezelkabel met LC-stekkers

The ACT 15m Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist fiber cable with LC connectors is a singlemode patch cable designed for long-distance, high-speed optical links. Its 9/125 µm core/cladding geometry and OS2 fiber type provide low attenuation and controlled modal dispersion, making the cable suitable for use in metro, campus and data centre interconnects. The polarity twist feature simplifies inline polarity management and reduces connector handling during installation.

Advantages

This fiber cable delivers stable optical performance with low insertion loss and high return loss typical for OS2 singlemode construction. The use of LC connectors enables high-density connections and a compact footprint in patch panels and transceivers. The 15 meter length gives reach for cross-room or equipment-to-equipment links while the polarity twist design helps ensure correct transmit/receive alignment without extensive re-termination.

Suitable for

• Data centre patching and inter-rack connections
• Metro and campus backbone links
• Fiber to the desk or equipment farms requiring singlemode transmission
• High-density optical panels and LC-based transceiver connections

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode OS2
• Core/cladding diameter: 9/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Cable length: 15 m
• Polarity: Twist design for easy polarity management
• Typical applications: Long-reach data transmission, patching, interconnect

How to use

Route the cable between the intended LC ports, ensuring bend radius limits are respected to avoid increased attenuation. Insert LC connectors into the matching ports until they click into place. If polarity alignment is required, use the twist feature to match transmit and receive pairs according to the network plan. After installation, verify link integrity with an optical power meter or light source and confirm acceptable insertion loss and continuity before placing the link into service.

Recommendations

Maintain minimum bend radius as specified for singlemode fiber and avoid crushing or sharp bends. Store and transport the cable coiled without tight loops. Clean LC connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before making connections to minimise contamination and signal loss.
