Kuitu-simplexkaapeli InLine LC/APC (8°) - SC/APC (8°) OS2 9/125µm FTTH 30 m

InLine fiber optic simplex cable LC/APC (8°) to SC/APC (8°) OS2 9/125µm, 30 m, is a single‑mode patch cable designed for FTTH installations and indoor/outdoor patching. The cable features OS2 9/125µm fiber with APC 8° polished terminations at both ends (LC to SC) and a 3.0 mm armoured construction with a low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) outer jacket. It is intended to link the house transfer point, ONT or modem, network equipment and fiber distribution panels where reliable angled APC connections and low insertion loss are required.

Advantages

The armoured 3.0 mm cable jacket and a stainless steel spiral tube provide mechanical protection and improved durability compared with thin pre‑installed cables. APC 8° polished connectors reduce back reflection and meet typical FTTH optical performance expectations with low insertion loss and high return loss. The white neutral sheath allows inconspicuous installation in living areas, and the LSZH material reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire. A test report for insertion loss and return loss is supplied to support quality verification.

Suitable for

• Connecting FTTH terminal point to ONT or fiber modem
• Patching between network equipment and fiber distribution panels
• Indoor or protected outdoor routing where a slim, armoured single‑mode cable is required
• Installations requiring APC angled terminations to minimise back reflections

How to use

Route the cable from the FTTH entry point or distribution panel to the ONT, modem or network device, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges. Insert the LC/APC connector into the corresponding LC/APC port and the SC/APC connector into the SC/APC port until the connectors click into place. Verify the orientation for APC connectors to ensure proper seating and minimal back reflection. After installation, check optical performance with available test equipment or review the supplied test report to confirm insertion loss and return loss meet expectations.

Recommendations

Avoid bending the cable below the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius, protect connector endfaces from dust with caps until final connection, and handle the armoured cable with care to prevent excessive deformation. Use a certified fiber cleaner and follow standard fiber safety practices when connecting or inspecting endfaces.
