HELOS E2000 APC to LC Duplex OS2 Single-Mode Fiber Patch Cable, 5m, Yellow, LSZH

With a return loss exceeding 60 dB, this HELOS fiber optic patch cable virtually eliminates signal reflections, ensuring pristine transmission in high-performance single-mode networks. The E2000® APC connector on one end and LC duplex on the other deliver a secure, low-loss link for demanding applications.

Overview

This 5-meter OS2 single-mode patch cable is engineered for reliable, high-speed data transmission in telecommunication and data center environments. The 9/125µm core/cladding diameter meets ITU-T G.652.D standards, while the yellow LSZH jacket offers low smoke and zero halogen properties for enhanced safety.

What stands out

• Angled Physical Contact (APC) polishing on E2000® connector minimizes back reflections, ideal for high-bandwidth analog and digital signals.
• Duplex LC connector with clip design ensures easy insertion and removal in high-density patch panels.
• Low insertion loss of less than 0.3 dB and attenuation below 0.35 dB/km at 1310nm preserve signal integrity over long distances.
• LSZH jacket reduces toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, meeting strict safety regulations.
• Operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C supports deployment in various indoor environments.
