Fibre optic cable BlueOptics SFP2122BU50MX LC SC OS2 50 m Yellow

The BlueOptics SFP2122BU50MX LC–SC OS2 50 m fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch lead designed for stable, low-loss data transmission in structured cabling and networking environments. With LC connector on one end and SC connector on the other, this 50 metre cable provides a straightforward connection between equipment with differing interface types. The OS2 single-mode construction and 9 µm core diameter deliver low attenuation for long-distance links, while the yellow jacket enables quick visual identification within cable runs.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable supports reliable single-mode signal transmission with minimal insertion loss. The mixed LC and SC connectors increase flexibility when connecting switches, routers, SFP modules and patch panels that use different port types. The 50 m length is suitable for extended patching within technical rooms or between adjacent rooms. The cable’s durable jacket and standardized connector ferrules ensure consistent optical alignment and repeatable connections.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between SFP modules and network equipment with SC ports
• Backbone or horizontal runs in office and data centre environments
• Single-mode links requiring low attenuation over medium distances
• Installations where colour-coded cabling simplifies identification and management

Key specifications

• Length: 50 metres
• Connector types: LC to SC
• Fibre type: OS2 (single-mode)
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Jacket colour: Yellow

How to use

Ensure both ends are clean before connection using appropriate fibre cleaning tools to avoid contamination and signal loss. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until each connector latches or seats securely. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain a bend radius consistent with manufacturer recommendations for single-mode fibre. Test the link with suitable optical test equipment after installation to verify attenuation and continuity.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fibre cable in a way that prevents kinks and dirt accumulation. For optimal long-term performance, use dust caps when connectors are not in use and follow standard procedures for single-mode fibre installation and testing.
