StarTech.com OS2 SC to SC Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable - 30 Feet

StarTech.com 30m (98.4ft) SC to SC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable, 9/125, 40G/100G, Low Insertion Loss, LSZH Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com OS2 SC to SC duplex fiber optic patch cable is engineered for high-performance data transmission in modern network environments. Designed with precision, this cable supports 10/40/100G networks and enables efficient Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across an extended wavelength range of 1260-1625nm, ensuring greater channel isolation and long-distance signal integrity. Its single-mode OS2 fiber core is optimized for minimal attenuation and high reliability, making it ideal for critical connections between servers, switches, and data center infrastructure. The cable's construction features high-quality ceramic ferrules that ensure precise fiber alignment, resulting in an insertion loss below 0.3dB, and Ultra Physical Contact (UPC)-polished connectors that enhance return loss performance compared to older PC-polished connectors. The bend-insensitive fiber core, reinforced with an Aramid layer, allows for tight bends with a minimum radius of 0.39 inches, facilitating flexible installations in complex environments. Housed within a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket, the cable provides a safer option for installations in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas, such as industrial or residential settings, where safety standards are critical. Each cable undergoes individual testing for insertion loss, with comprehensive test reports included to guarantee consistent performance and compatibility. This fiber optic patch cable is backward compatible with OS1 networks, ensuring seamless integration with existing infrastructure. Its yellow jacket and labeled connectors simplify polarity management during deployment, while its high micro-bend resistance supports complex routing without compromising signal quality. With a length of 30 meters (approximately 98.4 feet), the StarTech.com OS2 fiber patch cable offers a reliable, safe, and high-performance solution for extending network connectivity over long distances with superior performance standards.
