ROLINE InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel 20 m 2x LC wit OS2 9 µm vollduplex

The ROLINE InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 20 m 2x LC White OS2 9 µm Full duplex is a single-mode optical cable designed for high-speed data transmission over longer distances. It features two LC connectors for duplex operation and uses OS2 fibre with a 9 µm core diameter, offering low attenuation and stable signal integrity for Datacenter, telecommunications and enterprise network links. The 20 metre length and white jacket provide a balance between reach and neat cable routing in patching environments.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable provides full duplex communication via two LC terminations, enabling simultaneous send and receive channels. The OS2 single-mode fibre with a 9 µm core is optimized for low-loss transmission and minimizes dispersion over extended runs. The standardized LC connector ensures reliable mating with patch panels, transceivers and switches that accept LC interfaces. The white outer jacket supports visibility and organized routing within racks and conduits.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand interconnects in high-performance computing clusters
• Long-reach single-mode links between network equipment and patch panels
• Telecommunications and service provider backbone connections
• Data centre horizontal or vertical cabling where LC interfaces are used

Key specifications

• Fibre type: OS2 single-mode
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: 2x LC (duplex)
• Length: 20 metres
• Jacket colour: White
• Transmission mode: Full duplex

How to use

Verify that both ends of the link are powered down or in a safe state for insertion. Align the LC connectors with the corresponding ports on transceivers, switches or patch panels and insert until they click. Observe correct polarity for transmit and receive channels to ensure duplex operation. Use appropriate cable management to avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and secure the cable within trays or clips to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Handle fibre ends with care and keep protective caps in place when not connected. Inspect connectors for contamination and clean with approved fibre cleaning tools before mating. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force; maintain recommended bend radius and tensile limits to preserve optical performance. For critical links, test end-to-end attenuation and link integrity after installation.
