Microconnect FIB224002 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 2 m SC Yellow

The Microconnect FIB224002 is a 2 m single-mode fibre optic patch cable with SC connectors and OS2 fibre type. Designed for enterprise networks, server rooms, telecom racks and cloud storage environments, this yellow 2‑metre cable supports high‑speed Ethernet links including 1G, 10G, 40G and 100G. With an OS2 core diameter of 9 µm it offers low attenuation and can transmit data up to 10 km at 1310 nm or up to 40 km at 1550 nm. The cable jacket is LSZH and the product conforms to applicable IEC, EIA/TIA or Telcordia standards.

Advantages

Low-loss OS2 single-mode fibre provides extended reach for long-distance links while the SC connectors ensure reliable, simple mating in rack and panel installations. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic fumes in case of fire and the yellow colour makes the cable easy to identify within patch panels and cable runs. Compact 2 m length is suitable for short interconnects in telecom rooms and server cabinets.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and transceivers in data centres
• Patch panels and fibre distribution frames in telecom rooms
• Short to medium reach Ethernet links (1G/10G/40G/100G)
• Cloud storage and server farm interconnects

How to use

Inspect connectors for dust and contaminants before installation and clean if necessary. Route the 2 m SC–SC patch cord between the appropriate SC ports on switches, patch panels or transceivers. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile stress; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius. Secure excess cable length to prevent strain on connectors and ensure proper cable management within racks or enclosures.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the Microconnect FIB224002 in conjunction with compatible OS2 single-mode equipment and keep connectors capped when not in use. Perform end-to-end optical loss testing after installation if precise link budgets are required.
