InLine fiber optische duplexkabel LC/LC 9/125µm OS2 10m

The InLine Fiber Optical Duplex Cable LC/LC 88656M 10m is a 10-metre duplex patch cable designed for single-mode 9/125µm OS2 fiber networks. It provides full-duplex transmission through two parallel optical fibers and comes terminated with LC connectors on both ends to support compact SFP, SFP+, and LC-based transceivers and patch panels. The cable is intended for use in structured cabling, server rooms and network racks where low-attenuation single-mode links over longer distances are required.

Advantages

This LC/LC duplex cable combines the small-form LC connector footprint with an OS2 single-mode fiber core of 9µm for low signal loss and stable transmission. The 10m length gives flexibility for inter-rack and equipment-to-equipment connections without excess slack. Full duplex operation via two fibers enables simultaneous bi-directional data flow, suitable for modern high-speed networking equipment. The standardized LC terminations ensure compatibility with a wide range of transceivers and patch panels used in data centers and telecom closets.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber connections in data centres and server rooms
• Patching between LC ports on transceivers, switches and routers
• Inter-rack and equipment cabling where a 10m duplex run is required
• Long-distance links within campuses or telecom closets using OS2 fiber

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Single-mode OS2
• Core/cladding diameter: 9/125 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Length: 10 metres
• Transmission: Full duplex (two fibers)

How to use

Route the duplex cable between devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding sharp kinks; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode fiber. Align and insert LC connectors into matching LC ports until they click to secure the connection. Use the correct polarity for transmit and receive pairs on the connected equipment to establish full-duplex communication. If necessary, organize the cable with Velcro ties or cable management panels to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Inspect connector end-faces before installation and clean with appropriate fiber-cleaning tools to minimize insertion loss. Avoid excessive pulling force on the cable; use dedicated routing paths and adhere to bend radius limits. For critical links, perform an optical loss test or continuity check after installation to verify signal integrity.
