ACT 20 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 short boot fiber patch cable duplex with LC connectors

The ACT 20 meter LSZH Singlemode 9/125 OS2 fiber patch cable is a duplex LC–LC assembly designed for long-distance, low-loss optical links. It uses a 9 µm core singlemode OS2 fiber with LSZH jacket material to reduce smoke and toxic emissions in the event of fire. Each cable is supplied with an individual test report for insertion loss (IL) and return loss (RL), and end-faces are 100% inspected to ensure connector quality.

Advantages

Grade A fiber and UPC polish provide consistent low-loss performance; laser-precision cleaving and 100% end-face inspection ensure reliable connector end-face quality; individual IL and RL test reports document performance per cable; LSZH jacket improves safety in confined or public spaces.

Suitable for

• Long-distance optical trunk lines and backbone connections
• Data centers and telecom central offices
• Indoor installations where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required
• High-speed networks requiring duplex LC connectors

How to use

Connect the LC connectors to compatible LC ports on transceivers, patch panels or networking equipment, observing correct duplex orientation. Route the cable following standard cable management practices to avoid excessive bending or strain; maintain bend radius recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Verify link performance using the supplied IL and RL test report and, if required, perform additional testing with your optical test equipment after installation.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in environments within the manufacturer's specified temperature and humidity ranges. Avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; when routing in trays or conduits, respect the minimum bend radius for 9/125 µm singlemode fiber. Use the individual IL/RL test report to confirm acceptable attenuation and reflectance for the intended link.
