Fiber Optic Duplex Patch Cable ShiverPeaks 77812 LC–SC 9/125µm OS1/OS2 10 m

Duplex fiber optic patch cable ShiverPeaks 77812 features an LC connector on one end and an SC connector on the other, built with 9/125 µm singlemode fibers (OS1/OS2) and a 10 m overall length. The cable contains two fibers in a duplex assembly that support transmit/receive pairs and are intended for singlemode data links, telecommunications, and interconnections between network equipment, patch panels, and optical transceivers. The jacket is color-coded for singlemode use and the cable is suitable for rack and cabinet patching and short trunk runs.

Advantages

The ShiverPeaks LC–SC duplex cable provides low-loss singlemode transmission with standard connector interfaces allowing compatibility with a wide range of equipment. Its duplex format keeps TX/RX pairs organized while the 9/125 µm fiber profile supports long-distance, low-dispersion signal transport. The 10 m length offers flexibility for common patching scenarios without excess coil, and the standardized LC and SC connectors simplify mating with transceivers and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Singlemode data links between switches, routers and optical transceivers
• Patching in racks and telecommunications cabinets
• Interconnection of patch panels, ODFs and active network equipment
• Short trunk runs and equipment migration where different connector types are required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode 9/125 µm (OS1/OS2)
• Configuration: duplex (two fibers)
• Connectors: LC on one end, SC on the other
• Length: 10 m
• Jacket color: singlemode standard (yellow)
• Typical use: patching and short trunking in indoor installations

How to use

Inspect connector endfaces before making connections and clean if necessary using appropriate fiber cleaning tools. Plug the LC connector into the corresponding LC port and the SC connector into the matching SC port, observing correct transmit/receive orientation for duplex pairs. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and secure it in cable management fittings or on patch panels to prevent strain. If testing is required, verify end-to-end continuity and insertion loss with suitable optical test equipment.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines, avoid excessive tension, and store excess length neatly. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use and perform periodic inspection and cleaning of connector endfaces to maintain low-loss links.
