ACT 50 meter Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Preterm fiber cable 24F LC Polarity Twist

The ACT 50 meter Singlemode 9/125 OS2 preterm fiber optic cable with 24 fibres and LC connectors is designed for fast and easy installation of backbone and installation cabling in datacentres and network rooms. With a 9 µm core diameter and OS2 singlemode specification, the cable supports long-distance transmission and stable signal performance. ACT keeps stock of preterm cabling to simplify Moves, Adds and Changes (MAC) and allow immediate replacement or expansion of backbone links.

Advantages

This preterminated Singlemode 9/125 OS2 cable offers quick deployment due to factory-fitted LC connectors and a 50 m ready-made length. The 24-fibre count supports higher-density backbone links while maintaining singlemode performance for long-reach applications. Keeping ACT preterm cables in stock reduces downtime for MAC operations and accelerates network changes or expansions.

Suitable for

• Datacentre backbone cabling
• Inter-rack and corridor links over long distances
• Moves, Adds and Changes (MAC) operations
• FTTx and long-distance network segments requiring OS2 singlemode

How to use

Route the preterm fiber cable along the planned pathway between panels or equipment racks. Secure the cable with appropriate cable management and avoid sharp bends to meet the recommended minimum bend radius. Terminated LC connectors plug directly into LC adapters or transceivers; verify polarity and connector orientation before powering equipment. Test the link with an appropriate optical tester after installation to confirm continuity and attenuation levels.

Recommendations

Store unused preterm cables in a clean, dry environment and handle connectors by the housings to avoid contamination. During MAC operations, keep spare preterm assemblies available to minimise service interruption.
