LogiLink FPSLS40 OS2 Singlemode Fiber Optic Patch Cable, SC to LC Simplex, 40 m, Yellow, LSZH

In a data center where every millisecond counts, a network engineer unspools this LogiLink 40-meter fiber patch cable to connect a core switch to a distribution panel. The SC simplex connector plugs into the switch port, while the LC simplex connector snaps into the SFP module on the other end. The yellow LSZH jacket stands out in the cable tray, and the bend-insensitive G.657.A2 fiber allows tight routing without signal loss. This singlemode OS2 cable is built for high-speed, long-distance links, ensuring reliable 10G, 40G, or even 100G transmission over 40 meters.

Key specifications

• Length: 40 meters
• Fiber type: OS2 singlemode (9/125 µm)
• Connectors: SC simplex to LC simplex, UPC polish
• Fiber standard: ITU-T G.657.A2 (bend-insensitive)
• Jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), yellow
• Insertion loss: ≤ 0.3 dB typical
• Return loss: ≥ 50 dB
• Operating temperature: -20°C to 70°C

Why choose it

This patch cable is ideal for high-density fiber installations where space is tight and performance is critical. The G.657.A2 fiber allows a minimum bend radius of just 10 mm, so you can route it around corners without worrying about signal degradation. The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and no halogens in case of fire, making it safe for use in enclosed spaces like data centers and office buildings. The UPC polish on the connectors ensures low back reflection, which is essential for high-speed digital transmission.

Ideal use cases

• Data center interconnects between switches, routers, and patch panels
• Telecommunications rooms and campus backbone links
• High-speed server connections requiring 10G/40G/100G
• Fiber-to-the-desk applications in modern offices

Good to know

The simplex design means a single fiber strand, perfect for bidirectional transmission over separate wavelengths or for use in pairs for duplex links. The cable is packaged individually and ready for immediate deployment.
