ACT 1 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 fiber patch cable duplex with LC/APC8 and SC/APC8 connectors

The ACT 1m LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Duplex fiber patch cable with LC/APC8 and SC/APC8 connectors provides a 1-metre duplex connection for singlemode networks. Constructed with a 9 µm core and OS2 grade fiber, the cable uses LSZH jacket material for low smoke and halogen-free performance suitable for indoor installations. The product includes individual test reports for insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL), 100% end-face inspection, laser-precision cleaving, Grade A fiber and APC polish to ensure consistent optical performance.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable delivers verified optical performance with individual IL and RL test reports and fully inspected connector end-faces. Laser-precision cleaving and APC polish minimise back-reflection and signal loss. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emissions in the event of a fire, and the OS2 singlemode 9/125 Grade A fiber supports high-speed, long-distance transmission.

How to use

Route the 1 m duplex cable between devices ensuring connector types match the equipment ports (LC/APC or SC/APC). Handle connectors by the boot and avoid touching end-faces; keep protective caps on until installation. After connecting, verify link quality using appropriate optical test equipment and consult the supplied IL/RL test reports for baseline performance.

Recommendations

For best results, store and install the cable in environments within manufacturer-recommended bend radius limits, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force, and keep connector end-faces clean using approved fiber cleaning tools before mating.
