ACT 17 metrin Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist -kuituoptinen kaapeli LC-liittimillä

The ACT 17m Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist fiber cable with LC connectors is designed for long-distance optical links where signal integrity and low attenuation are required. The singlemode 9/125 core supports narrow beam propagation and OS2-grade performance, making it suitable for campus backbone, telecom and data center interconnections. The cable uses LC duplex connectors and a polarity twist to ensure correct transmit/receive alignment between devices.

Advantages

This Singlemode fiber cable provides low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics typical of OS2 fibers, enabling reliable transmission over extended distances. The LC connectors offer compact duplex connections that save space in high-density panels and equipment. The built-in polarity twist simplifies matching Tx/Rx pairs without additional adapters or re-pinning, reducing installation time and potential errors.

Suitable for

• Long-distance backbone links in campus and enterprise networks
• Telecommunications and central office fiber runs
• Data center interconnects and equipment patching
• FTTx distribution where singlemode OS2 performance is required

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode (9/125 µm)
• OS2 category for low attenuation and long-range performance
• Connector type: LC duplex on both ends
• Polarity: Twist to match transmit/receive alignment
• Cable length: 17 meters
• Jacket: indoor-rated cable jacket suitable for patching and horizontal runs

How to use

Identify the intended transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) ports on your equipment and plug the LC duplex connectors into the corresponding ports, observing the polarity orientation. The polarity twist provided in the cable aligns Tx and Rx between connected devices without additional wiring changes. Route the cable through cable management channels or trays to avoid tight bends and secure it with appropriate fasteners to prevent stress on the connectors. Test the link with an optical power meter or continuity tester to confirm low insertion loss and correct alignment before placing the connection into service.

Recommendations

Handle the LC connectors by the boot or connector body and avoid touching the ferrule end face. Maintain bend radius guidelines for singlemode fiber, avoid kinks and excessive pulling force, and keep connector end faces clean using appropriate cleaning tools to ensure optimal performance.
