BlueOptics Duplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-APC/SC-APC Singlemode 2 metres

The BlueOptics Duplex Fibre Optic Patch Cable SC-APC/SC-APC Singlemode 2 metres is a high-performance fibre optic cable designed for reliable data transmission in telecommunications and data centre environments. With its duplex configuration and SC-APC connectors, this cable ensures low insertion loss and high return loss, making it ideal for applications requiring minimal signal reflection.

Advantages

This cable offers excellent signal integrity with a maximum insertion loss of ≤0.25 dB and a minimum return loss of ≥60 dB, ensuring stable and efficient data transfer. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket provides enhanced safety in enclosed spaces by reducing toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire. The yellow jacket colour allows for easy identification among other cables.

Suitable for

• Telecommunications networks
• Data centres and server rooms
• FTTx (Fibre to the x) installations
• Local Area Networks (LANs) requiring singlemode fibre
• High-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbps and beyond
