Fibre optic cable METZ CONNECT 151P1EOJO15E SC LC I-V(ZN) H 1.5 m Yellow

The METZ CONNECT 151P1EOJO15E SC LC I-V(ZN) H 1.5 m Yellow is a 1.5 m duplex fibre optic patch cable designed for reliable short-distance optical connections. It integrates an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, uses single-mode fibre with a 9 µm core diameter, and is manufactured to meet G.657.A2 bending performance. The yellow jacket and industry-standard connectors make it suitable for structured cabling and patch panel connections in telecommunication and data center environments.

Advantages

This single-mode fibre cable provides full-duplex transmission with low insertion loss thanks to the SC and LC connectors optimized for single-mode operation. Compliance with G.657.A2 ensures improved bend performance compared with standard single-mode fibres, reducing the risk of signal loss in confined installations. The 1.5 m length offers a practical balance between reach and cable management within racks and cabinets, while the yellow jacket provides clear visual identification for single-mode links.

Suitable for

• Patch panel to transceiver connections in data centers
• Interconnects between networking equipment and optical modules
• Telecommunications cabinets and wall-mounted distribution frames
• Short-range single-mode optical links in enterprise networks

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Cable type: I-V(ZN) H
• Connector types: SC (one end) to LC (other end)
• Core diameter: 9 µm (single-mode)
• Standard compliance: G.657.A2 (bend-insensitive single-mode)
• Product colour: Yellow

How to use

Inspect connector end-faces before installation and clean them with appropriate fibre cleaning tools to prevent contamination. Route the 1.5 m cable along existing cable management paths, avoiding sharp bends and tight loops despite the G.657.A2 bend resistance. Insert the SC connector into an SC adapter or port and the LC connector into the LC transceiver or adapter until a secure coupling is achieved. Verify optical link integrity with a suitable light source and power meter or an OTDR if available.

Recommendations

Store the cable coiled loosely and avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius recommended for G.657.A2 fibre. Use dust caps when connectors are not in use, and perform regular cleaning of connector end-faces to maintain low insertion loss and reliable performance.
