SC APC to SC APC Simplex OS2, 1.2mm, ofnr Fiber Patch Cable

Network installers should begin with the actual mating interfaces and site fiber records before assigning this product to a link. This OS2 fiber patch cable carries a SC APC interface on one end and a SC APC interface on the other, factory terminated on OS2 glass and optically tested as a full product. The single-fiber structure suits bidirectional optics, monitoring taps and any channel that carries traffic over one strand.

Product Highlights

• G.657.A1 Bend Insensitive Fiber with 10mm Min. Bend Radius
• Precision Zirconia Ferrule Connectors Ensure Low Loss
• Thinner Cable Diameter Delivers Enhanced Flexibility for Tight Spaces and Complex Routing
• Flame-Retardant Riser (OFNR) for Vertical and Floor-to-Floor Installations
• Color-Coded Cable Jacket for Easy Identification

Patch fields are rarely kind to fiber. Leads pathway through tight managers, sharp tray corners and crowded vertical channels. The bend-insensitive glass in this cable assembly tolerates a 10mm fiber bend radius; therefore, a hurried routing decision during a night upkeep window will not turn into a measurable penalty on the channel.

Single-mode patching carries the links that leave the room: campus backbones, carrier handoffs, long runs between buildings and every wavelength-multiplexed service. Because the OS2 glass in this cable assembly is the matching class used in the outside plant, the jumper cable will not become the weak point of the loss calculation. At 1310 and 1550nm the attenuation stays a fraction of a decibel per kilometer, and the optical connector pair adds less than 0.3dB when the end faces are clean and seated.

Regular lengths cover the common patching routes: 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), with project-specific length obtainable beyond the list. Specifying the measured pathway length keeps the slack out of the manager and the strain off the optical connectors.

Every assembly is terminated with precision zirconia ferrule connectors and optically tested before packing: insertion loss and return loss are verified on each cable, and end-face geometry is inspected for consistent physical contact. The optical cable ships with dust caps on both connectors and the test result obtainable on ask for.

Refer to this arrangement by connector pair, fiber mode and length when asking for a quotation. For configurations outside the listed options, mixed connector families, jackets, marking or project packaging, send the specification with the request and the factory will check the build before manufacturing. Project support is available to reconcile the ordered configuration with the intended installation.
