Fiber Optic Cable BlueOptics Simplex LWL Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-UPC OS2 3 Meter Blue

The BlueOptics Simplex LWL Patch Cable SC-UPC/SC-UPC OS2 3 Meter Blue is a singlemode fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable point-to-point connections in telecom and data networks. With SC-UPC connectors on both ends and OS2 fiber construction, this 3 m cable provides low attenuation and consistent optical performance. The cable features a ceramic ferrule and a 2.0 mm LSZH outer tube that reduces smoke and toxic gas emissions in case of fire. A measurement protocol is included to verify insertion loss and overall quality.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable offers low insertion loss of under 0.2 dB, ensuring efficient signal transmission and minimal power penalty across the link. The use of ceramic ferrules improves connector durability and repeatability of connections, while the LSZH jacket enhances safety in enclosed or public spaces. The singlemode OS2 construction is suitable for long-distance and high-bandwidth applications, and the provided measurement protocol supports installation verification and quality assurance.

How to use

Inspect both SC-UPC connector endfaces for cleanliness before connecting; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools if necessary. Align and insert the SC connectors into matching SC ports until they click into place. Route the 3 m cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; maintain bend radii in accordance with fiber handling best practices. After installation, verify link performance using the supplied measurement protocol or appropriate optical test equipment to confirm insertion loss and continuity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a dry environment and avoid exposure to excessive tensile load. For installations in public or confined spaces, the LSZH jacket reduces hazardous emissions. Use dust caps on disconnected connectors and perform routine inspections to maintain optimal optical performance.
