METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable SC-S APC / SC-S APC OS2 Singlemode Simplex 10.0 m White

The METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding network environments. Featuring SC-S APC connectors on both ends and a 10.0 meter length, this OS2 singlemode simplex cable ensures low insertion loss and high return loss, making it ideal for FTTH, data centers, and telecommunications applications. The white LSZH jacket provides durability and safety, while the 3.0 mm diameter allows for easy handling and installation.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional signal integrity with insertion loss ≤ 0.25 dB and return loss ≥ 60 dB, ensuring minimal signal degradation. The APC polishing reduces back reflection, critical for high-speed networks. The LSZH jacket is halogen-free, reducing toxic smoke in case of fire, making it suitable for indoor installations. The cable is compliant with IEC and TIA/EIA standards, guaranteeing interoperability and performance.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms
• Telecommunications networks
• FTTx (Fiber to the x) deployments
• Local Area Networks (LAN) requiring singlemode fiber
• High-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbps and beyond
