ACT 7 metrin Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist kuitukaapeli LC-liittimillä

The ACT 7 meter Singlemode 9/125 OS2 Polarity Twist Fiber Cable with LC Connectors is a singlemode optical patch cable engineered for long-distance data transmission. It uses a 9/125 µm core/cladding diameter and OS2-grade fiber to reduce attenuation and maintain signal integrity across extended runs. The cable is terminated with LC connectors at both ends and features a polarity twist design to simplify correct channel alignment in duplex links.

Advantages

This singlemode 9/125 OS2 cable provides low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics suitable for long-haul and backbone connections. The LC connectors offer a compact footprint and reliable mechanical performance in high-density racks and panels. The polarity twist design eliminates the need for separate crossover adapters, reducing installation time and potential wiring errors. The cable jacket and connector strain relief are designed to withstand normal handling and frequent patching.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects and rack-to-rack links
• Telecommunications backbone and access networks
• FTTx and long-distance optical links
• High-density patch panels and optical distribution frames

Key specifications

• Fiber type: Singlemode
• Core/cladding diameter: 9/125 µm
• OS grade: OS2
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Cable length: 7 meters
• Polarity: Twist duplex polarity
• Typical use: Patch cable for singlemode systems

How to use

Connect each LC connector to the corresponding LC adapter or transceiver port, ensuring proper seating until a tactile click is felt. Use the polarity twist feature to match transmit and receive channels without additional crossover cables; verify link status on network equipment after connection. Route the cable along cable management trays or through patch panels to avoid sharp bends—maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. When disconnecting, grip the connector body rather than the fiber jacket to avoid stressing the termination.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, keep the connectors capped when not in use and clean end faces with approved fiber cleaning tools before connection. Avoid repeated tight bending and excessive tension; store the cable coiled loosely. Verify link parameters after installation and replace the cable if physical damage or significant loss increase is detected.
