StarTech.com SMLCSCOS27M OS2 LC to SC Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable

StarTech.com 7m (22.9ft) LC to SC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable, 9/125, 100G, Low Insertion Loss, LSZH Fiber Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com SMLCSCOS27M OS2 LC to SC single mode duplex fiber optic patch cable is designed for high-performance connectivity in 100G network environments. Featuring a duplex design, this cable supports Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) over an extended wavelength range of 1260-1625nm, which enhances channel isolation and ensures optimal signal strength over long distances. It is ideal for connecting critical data center equipment such as servers and switches, providing reliable data transmission with minimal attenuation.
Constructed with precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules, the cable guarantees accurate fiber alignment, resulting in an insertion loss below 0.3dB. The Ultra Physical Contact (UPC)-polished LC and SC fiber ends significantly improve return loss characteristics compared to older PC-polished connectors. The Bend Insensitive fiber core, surrounded by a low refractive index layer, reduces light escape and reflection, supporting low attenuation and high performance that exceeds industry standards such as ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50 type B1.3/B6.a1. This ensures the cable maintains high-quality signal integrity even in demanding environments.
Housed in a Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket, the cable emits minimal smoke and toxic fumes when exposed to heat, making it suitable for installation in areas with poor ventilation, industrial settings, and environments requiring strict safety compliance. Each cable undergoes individual testing for insertion loss performance and includes a test report, guaranteeing compatibility and consistent reliability. The yellow color and polypropylene material contribute to easy identification and durability, while the environmentally friendly WEEE compliance aligns with sustainability standards.
Designed for seamless integration with network devices, this fiber optic patch cable simplifies device connections across entire business networks. Its laser-optimized design ensures maximum productivity and reliability, making it suitable for critical data transmission tasks. The cable's compatibility with various network equipment, combined with its lifetime warranty, provides peace of mind for demanding installations and long-term usage.
