Equip 255907 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 20 m LC LC/APC Yellow

The Equip 255907 20 m LC LC/APC fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission in network and data centre environments. This yellow OS2 cable has a 9 µm core diameter and LC connectors terminated with APC polish on both ends (LC to LC/APC), providing low insertion loss and controlled back reflection for stable optical links. The 20 m length supports flexible routing between racks, switches and terminal equipment while maintaining signal integrity for long-distance connections within buildings or campus networks.

Advantages

The cable offers OS2 single-mode performance with a 9 µm core that minimises signal attenuation and supports higher bandwidth over longer distances compared with multimode alternatives. LC connectors with APC end-face polishing reduce return loss, improving link stability for sensitive optical equipment. The 20 m length and yellow jacket make the cable easy to identify and suitable for structured cabling. The product is compatible with devices and transceivers using LC/APC interfaces and is manufactured to industry standards for fibre optic patch cords.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, routers and optical transceivers in data centres
• Patch panels and structured cabling runs within buildings or campus networks
• Telecommunications and network equipment requiring low return loss connections
• Laboratory test setups and fibre optic maintenance tasks

How to use

Inspect connector end-faces and the cable jacket for damage before installation. Route the 20 m fibre optic cable along planned cable trays or raceways, avoiding tight bends and mechanical stress; adhere to the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for single-mode fibre. Connect LC connectors to corresponding LC/APC ports on patch panels, transceivers or network devices, ensuring proper orientation and secure seating. Label both ends if required for identification. For removal, gently disengage connectors by pulling the boot or connector body rather than the fibre itself.

Recommendations

Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform end-face cleaning with approved fibre cleaning tools to maintain low insertion loss. Avoid exceeding the cable’s bend radius, and store the cable coiled without sharp kinks. Select this OS2 9 µm LC LC/APC 20 m cable where low attenuation and low return loss are needed for reliable single-mode links.
