ACT 1.5 meter singlemode 9/125 OS2 duplex armored fiber patch cable with LC connectors

The ACT 1.5m Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Duplex Armored Fiber Patch Cable with LC connectors is a 1.5 meter armored duplex fiber patchcord designed for singlemode networks. It uses a 9 µm core (9/125) and LC terminations to provide full-duplex high-speed transmission with low attenuation. The metal armor adds mechanical protection against crushing and physical damage, making the cable suitable for demanding indoor and outdoor installations such as data centers and telecommunications links.

Advantages

The armored construction offers superior protection compared to standard fiber patch cords, reducing the risk of damage from impacts, rodents or compression. LC connectors provide a compact duplex interface for high-density panels. Singlemode 9/125 OS2 specification ensures low signal loss and long-distance performance. The 1.5 m length balances reach and neat cable management in rack or patch environments.

How to use

Route the armored patch cable through cable management trays or conduits appropriate for armored cables, avoiding sharp bends and excessive tensile load. Insert the LC connectors into matching LC ports on networking equipment or patch panels until they click into place. For duplex operation, match transmit to receive ports on each end. Ensure connectors are clean before mating; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary.

Recommendations

Use this armored LC-LC singlemode patch cable where additional mechanical protection is required. Verify connector types and fiber mode match your equipment, keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines, and inspect/clean connectors regularly to maintain low insertion loss.
