Glasvezelkabel ROLINE 21158785 5 m LC blauw geel

The ROLINE 21158785 5 m LC Blue Yellow OS2 fibre optic cable provides a single-mode connection with LC connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed data transmission, the cable has a 9 µm core diameter that supports long-distance links with low attenuation. The distinct blue and yellow jacket colors assist with visual identification and organized routing in racks and patch panels. This fibre optic cable is suitable for installations where single-mode performance and compact LC terminations are required.

Advantages

This single-mode OS2 fibre cable delivers low signal loss and consistent transmission quality over longer distances compared with multimode alternatives. The LC-to-LC terminations offer a compact footprint that saves space in crowded patch panels and switches. The 5 m length balances reach and manageability for typical rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch panel connections. Color-coded jackets reduce installation errors and speed up maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnections between racks and patch panels
• High-performance networking links in enterprise environments
• Fiber runs between telecom equipment and switches with LC ports
• Structured cabling where single-mode OS2 performance is specified

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC (both ends)
• Mode: Single-mode (OS2)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Cable length: 5 m
• Jacket colors: blue and yellow for easy identification

How to use

Verify that connected equipment accepts LC single-mode connectors and that the link budget meets the required attenuation limits for the intended distance. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode fibre. Clean connector endfaces before insertion using an appropriate fibre cleaning tool to ensure optimal signal integrity. Insert LC connectors into the transceiver or adapter until they click into place and secure any cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fibre cable in a dry, dust-free environment. Perform endface inspection and cleaning prior to initial use and after any reconnection. Avoid exceeding the manufacturer's specified bend radius and protect exposed connectors with caps when not in use to maintain long-term performance.
