StarTech.com SMDOS2SCSC5M SC to SC Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable

StarTech.com 5m (16.4ft) SC to SC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable, 9/125, 40G/100G, Low Insertion Loss, LSZH Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com SMDOS2SCSC5M SC to SC single mode duplex fiber optic patch cable is designed for high-performance connectivity in demanding 40G and 100G network environments. Supporting CWDM wavelengths from 1260 to 1625nm, this cable ensures efficient channel separation and reliable long-distance data transmission. Its precision-engineered ceramic ferrules guarantee accurate fiber alignment, resulting in an insertion loss of less than 0.3dB. The Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polishing enhances return loss characteristics, providing a cleaner signal and improved overall network stability. The Bend Insensitive Fiber Core, protected by a low refractive index coating, minimizes signal attenuation even when bent or routed through tight spaces, aligning with industry standards such as ITU-T G652.D and G657.A1 for superior performance and durability. This fiber optic cable is housed in a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, which reduces toxic fumes and smoke emissions during a fire, making it suitable for installations in environments with strict safety requirements, including industrial, transportation, and residential settings. Each cable undergoes thorough testing for insertion loss, with a detailed test report included to ensure compatibility and dependability. Ideal for connecting servers, switches, and data center equipment, this cable provides crystal-clear connectivity and maximum productivity. Its fully compatible design, combined with UPC polishing for ease of use, ensures seamless integration into existing fiber optic networks. The bright yellow jacket not only enhances visibility but also aligns with industry standards for fiber cable color coding. Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, the StarTech.com SC/SC duplex fiber optic patch cable offers a reliable, safe, and high-quality solution for your fiber optic networking needs.
