Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS472V12200 10M OS2 LC SC Armored Duplex Fiber Patch Cable Single Mode 9/125 LSZH

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCDUS472V12200 is a 10-meter, OS2 single-mode, duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for environments where physical protection and reliable data transmission are critical. Its armored construction shields the fiber core from crushing, bending, and rodent damage, making it suitable for industrial, outdoor, or high-traffic areas. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket minimizes toxic fumes in case of fire, a key consideration for plenum spaces or enclosed installations.

Compatibility

This cable utilizes standard LC and SC connectors, ensuring broad compatibility with most network switches, media converters, and fiber optic transceivers that support OS2 single-mode fiber. It is designed for duplex communication, meaning it has two fibers for simultaneous transmit and receive operations, common in Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet applications. Verify your equipment's port types (LC or SC) and fiber mode (single-mode OS2) for correct integration.

Installation Notes

The armored construction adds rigidity; avoid tight bends that exceed the minimum bend radius (typically 20mm for armored OS2 fiber) to prevent signal loss or fiber damage. Ensure connectors are clean before mating. The LSZH jacket is suitable for indoor installations where fire safety codes require low-smoke, zero-halogen materials.
