BLACKBOX FO OS1/2 SINGLE-MODE PATCH CABLES LSZH - LC-LC DUPLEX, 2M

Fiber optic patch cable engineered for high-speed single-mode networks, delivering a 2-meter LC-to-LC duplex link with OS1/OS2 compliance and an LSZH jacket for safety in enclosed spaces. This cable ensures low insertion loss and high return loss, making it ideal for demanding telecom and data center interconnects.

Advantages

Built with a 9/125 µm core and cladding, this patch cable supports long-distance transmission with minimal attenuation: less than 0.35 dB/km at 1310 nm and 0.25 dB/km at 1550 nm. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket emits very low smoke and no toxic halogens when exposed to fire, enhancing safety in office buildings, data centers, and other populated environments. Duplex LC connectors provide a secure, push-pull latching mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection, while the A-B polarity ensures proper transmit/receive alignment for standard networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, and servers in enterprise data centers
• Telecom central offices and FTTH (Fiber to the Home) distribution points
• High-speed backbone links requiring 10G, 40G, or 100G Ethernet over single-mode fiber
• Environments where fire safety regulations mandate LSZH cabling, such as hospitals, schools, and public buildings

Recommendations

For optimal performance, pair this cable with single-mode transceivers rated for the same wavelength and distance. Avoid excessive bending beyond the minimum radius to maintain signal integrity. Always inspect connectors for cleanliness before installation and use dust caps when not in use.
