StarTech.com SMDOS2SCSC2M SC/SC Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable for 40G/100G Networks

StarTech.com 2m (6.6ft) SC to SC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable, 9/125, 40G/100G, Low Insertion Loss, LSZH Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com SMDOS2SCSC2M SC/SC Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable is engineered to deliver high-performance connectivity for data centers, enterprise networks, and critical server applications. Supporting Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across an extended wavelength range of 1260-1625nm, this cable ensures optimal signal integrity over long distances, making it ideal for high-speed 40G and 100G network environments. Its single-mode design, with a 9/125 micron core, provides low attenuation and excellent channel isolation, ensuring reliable data transmission with minimal signal loss.

Constructed with precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules, the cable guarantees accurate fiber alignment and an insertion loss below 0.3dB, which enhances overall network performance. The Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polished SC to SC fiber ends significantly improve return loss characteristics, reducing signal reflections and increasing connection stability. The bend-insensitive fiber core is surrounded by a low refractive index layer, reflecting light back into the fiber to maintain signal strength even around tight bends. This design exceeds industry standards such as ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment.

Safety and environmental considerations are integral to this product. Housed in a Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket, the fiber cable emits minimal smoke and toxic fumes if exposed to heat or fire, making it suitable for use in confined or industrial settings. Each cable undergoes rigorous testing for insertion loss performance and is supplied with a detailed test report, providing guaranteed compatibility and reliability for mission-critical applications. Whether connecting servers, switches, or other data center components, this fiber optic patch cable offers a robust, safe, and high-performance solution for your network infrastructure.
