ACT 1 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC and SC connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable Duplex LC to SC 1m is a 1 meter singlemode fiber optic patch cable designed for indoor network connections. Constructed with 9/125 µm OS2 singlemode fiber and a duplex configuration, it provides reliable full-duplex transmission between devices with LC and SC ports. The outer jacket is made from low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) material to reduce toxic gas and dense smoke in case of fire, making it suitable for confined or public indoor spaces where safety standards are required.

Advantages

This cable delivers low insertion loss and consistent signal performance typical of OS2 singlemode fiber, supporting long-reach and high-speed links. The duplex LC to SC connector combination offers compatibility with a wide range of patch panels, transceivers, and active network equipment. The LSZH jacket enhances safety for indoor installations and helps meet building and data center regulations related to fire and smoke emissions. The 1 meter length provides a compact, tidy connection for short runs and rack-to-rack cabling.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting optical transceivers and switches in data centers
• Patching between fiber distribution panels and network devices
• Telecommunications closets and equipment racks
• Indoor installations where low-smoke zero-halogen materials are required

How to use

Ensure both network ports are compatible with LC and SC connectors before connecting. Inspect connector endfaces for cleanliness and remove any dust or particles using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Align and insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC receptacle until the connectors click or seat securely. Avoid tight bends and maintain the cable bend radius recommended for singlemode fiber to preserve signal integrity. When routing the cable in racks or conduits, secure it with cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Store the cable coiled without sharp bends and protect connector endfaces with dust caps when not in use. For best performance, clean connectors before each connection and avoid kinking or stepping on the cable. Use this LSZH singlemode duplex patch cable for short indoor fiber runs where safety and reliable singlemode transmission are required.
