METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch Cable SC-S/SC-S APC OS2 White 2.0 m

The METZ CONNECT OpDAT patch cable is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable singlemode connections in data centers, telecommunications, and enterprise networks. With SC-Simplex connectors on both ends, APC polish, and OS2 fiber class, this cable ensures low insertion loss and high return loss for optimal signal integrity. The white LSZH jacket provides halogen-free, low smoke safety, making it suitable for indoor installations where fire safety is critical.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional optical performance with insertion loss ≤ 0.25 dB and return loss ≥ 60 dB, ensuring minimal signal degradation. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic fumes in case of fire, enhancing safety. Its 2.0 m length provides flexibility in patching while maintaining neat cable management.
