ACT 1.5 meters Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist uniboot duplex fiber patch cable with CS - LC connectors

The ACT 1.5m Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist Uniboot Duplex Fiber Patch Cable CS-LC is a thin, high-density patch cable designed for singlemode networks. It features a CS connector on one end and an LC Polarity Twist™ uniboot duplex connector on the other, enabling rapid polarity changes and compatibility with QSFP and OSFP high-speed optics. With a 9/125 µm core/cladding and OS2 rating, the cable is intended for reliable signal transmission in data center and telecommunication environments.

Advantages

This Polarity Twist™ patch cable allows the LC connector polarity to be changed in seconds without replacing the cable, reducing installation time and complexity. The cable diameter is approximately 60% thinner than standard patch cables, making it suitable for high-density patch panels and constrained routing paths. Combining the CS connector standard for high-speed QSFP/OSFP optics with the LC uniboot design provides compatibility and space savings in modern network deployments.

Suitable for

• Data center patch panels and high-density racks
• Connections to QSFP/OSFP transceivers and modules
• Telecommunications and carrier backbone links
• Environments where space-saving cabling is required

How to use

Route the cable through the rack or tray to the desired ports, connect the CS end to the QSFP/OSFP module or adapter, and insert the LC uniboot ends into the corresponding LC ports on the patch panel or device. To change polarity, use the Polarity Twist™ mechanism on the LC connector to swap transmit/receive orientation within seconds without disconnecting or replacing the cable. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to maintain optimal optical performance.

Recommendations

Use this CS–LC Polarity Twist™ cable in high-density installations where space and quick polarity changes are important. Keep the cable within recommended bend radius limits and use fiber cleaning tools before connection. Verify compatibility with QSFP/OSFP optics and LC ports prior to deployment.
