SC‑SC UPC OS2 Duplex Single‑Mode Fibre Cable ProXtend FO‑SCSCOS2D‑007 7 m

SC‑SC UPC OS2 Duplex Single‑Mode Fibre Cable ProXtend FO‑SCSCOS2D‑007 7 m is a duplex single‑mode fibre jumper designed for long‑reach optical connections. The cable features two SC connectors with UPC (Ultra Physical Contact) polish on both ends and an OS2 graded single‑mode fibre core, providing low attenuation and stable optical performance for telecom, data centre and FTTH links. The 7‑metre jacketed assembly supports duplex transmission with a compact connector interface and is suitable for linking transceivers, patch panels and active networking equipment in structured cabling systems.

Advantages

The SC‑SC UPC OS2 duplex cable offers low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics associated with UPC polishing, ensuring reliable signal integrity over long distances. Its single‑mode OS2 fibre core is optimized for minimal attenuation at common telecom wavelengths, enabling consistent performance in metro and long‑haul applications. The duplex SC interface simplifies duplex channel management while the robust outer jacket provides physical protection and flexibility for installation in racks, conduits and cabinets.

Suitable for

• Telecom links and long‑distance optical backbones
• Data centre patching between transceivers and patch panels
• FTTH (fiber to the home) terminations and customer premises equipment
• Optical equipment testing and measurement setups

Key specifications

• Connector type: SC‑SC duplex with UPC polish
• Fibre type: Single‑mode OS2
• Length: 7 m
• Transmission: Duplex (two fibres in one assembly)
• Jacket: Standard protective jacket for indoor cabling
• Typical attenuation: Low attenuation suitable for long‑reach applications
• Operating wavelengths: Compatible with common telecom wavelengths (e.g., 1310 nm, 1550 nm)

How to use

Route the SC‑SC UPC OS2 duplex cable between the two optical endpoints, ensuring connectors are clean and free of dust before insertion. Align the SC connectors with the mating adapters or transceiver ports and push until the connector latches engage. For patch‑panel installations, insert each SC connector into the appropriate duplex adapter slot and secure the cable along cable management trays to avoid sharp bends. When disconnecting, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to prevent damage.

Recommendations

Before each connection, inspect and clean the UPC connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools to maintain low insertion loss. Avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum bend radius, and store spare cable in a coiled manner without tight loops. Use designated fibre adapters and patch panels to maintain proper alignment and protection of connector ferrules.
