ACT 2 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 short boot fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors

The ACT Fiber Patch Cable LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 in 2 m length is a duplex LC–LC optical cable designed for high-speed data transmission in data center and telecommunications environments. The cable features a 9 µm core diameter (OS2 singlemode), LSZH outer jacket for reduced smoke and no halogen in case of fire, UPC-polished end faces, and Grade A fiber construction. Each cable receives an individual test report for insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL), and end faces are 100% inspected with laser-precision cleaving to ensure connector quality.

Advantages

Duplex LC connectors on both ends provide compact, reliable connections for network equipment. The LSZH jacket improves safety in enclosed spaces by emitting less smoke and no halogen when exposed to fire. UPC polish and Grade A fiber reduce back reflections and attenuation, while individual IL and RL test reports and 100% end-face inspection deliver traceable quality control.

Suitable for

• Data center horizontal and rack-to-rack connections
• Telecommunications and carrier networks
• FTTx and long-distance singlemode links
• Environments requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling

How to use

Unpack the 2 m ACT LSZH singlemode patch cable and remove protective caps from the LC connectors. Route the duplex cable between devices, avoiding tight bends below the manufacturer's minimum bend radius. Insert the LC connectors into compatible LC ports until secure. For optimal performance, ensure mating connectors and patch panels are clean and free of dust; use a fiber inspection scope if available.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in clean conditions, protect connector end faces with caps when not in use, and follow standard fiber-handling procedures. For critical links, verify insertion loss and return loss after installation and use compatible OS2 singlemode components throughout the link.
