InLine kuitu-simplexkaapeli FTTH LC/APC 8° - SC/APC 8° 9/125µm OS2, 10 m

InLine Fiber Optical Simplex Cable FTTH LC/APC 8° to SC/APC 8° 9/125µm OS2, 10 m is a single‑mode simplex patch cable designed for FTTH and indoor optical connections. It features an LC/APC 8° connector on one end and an SC/APC 8° connector on the other, with 9/125µm OS2 fiber for low‑loss single‑mode transmission. The cable has a 3.0 mm outer diameter with an armoured stainless steel spiral tube and a low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) white jacket for neat, safe installation in visible living areas. Typical insertion loss values are low and return loss is high thanks to APC polishing, and each cable is supplied with a test report.

Advantages

This InLine FTTH cable combines robust mechanical protection with optical performance suitable for home and premises use. The armoured construction and 3 mm diameter provide greater durability than typical thin pre‑installed provider cables, reducing the risk of breakage during installation or movement. APC 8° polished connectors deliver low insertion loss (typical <0.20 dB) and high return loss (>60 dB), supporting reliable single‑mode links. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic emissions in the event of fire, and the neutral white sheath offers discreet appearance where cable routing is visible.

Suitable for

• Connecting FTTH building outlet or wall plate to a fibre optic modem / ONT
• Patching between optical network equipment and media converters in homes or small offices
• Extension runs and relocation of fibre‑optic terminals within premises
• Low‑loss single‑mode links requiring APC connectors for improved return loss

How to use

Route the InLine FTTH cable between the building outlet or wall plate and the optical network terminal (ONT) or fibre modem, ensuring connectors are clean before mating. Align the LC/APC connector with the corresponding LC/APC port and the SC/APC connector with the SC/APC port; mate connectors until they click or seat firmly. Avoid sharp bends and kinks, keep bend radius above the manufacturer’s recommended minimum, and secure the cable along its run to prevent strain on the connectors. If necessary, use the supplied test report to verify insertion and return loss after installation.

Recommendations

Clean connector end faces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before each connection to maintain low insertion loss and high return loss. Do not exceed the recommended minimum bend radius and avoid crushing the cable; the armoured design improves durability but proper handling extends service life. Store and operate the cable within the specified temperature range.
