Description

StarTech SMLCSC-OS2-10M OS2 Duplex Fiber Optic Cable

Overview

The StarTech SMLCSC-OS2-10M is a 10-meter (32.8 ft) duplex fiber optic patch cable designed for high-bandwidth network infrastructure. It utilizes OS2 single-mode fiber, enabling data transmission speeds up to 100Gbps over longer distances than multimode fiber. The cable features LC connectors on one end and SC connectors on the other, making it suitable for connecting network equipment like switches, routers, and servers in data centers or enterprise environments. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material enhances safety in enclosed spaces by minimizing toxic smoke and corrosive byproducts in case of fire, a critical consideration for installations in commercial buildings or critical infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device or equipment utilizing LC and SC fiber optic ports. It is suitable for use with StarTech's own line of network switches, media converters, and transceivers, as well as third-party equipment requiring OS2 single-mode duplex fiber connectivity. Specific applications include connecting 10Gbps, 40Gbps, and 100Gbps Ethernet links, Fibre Channel SANs, and other high-speed data networks.

Installation Notes

The cable has a minimum bend radius of 10mm (loaded and unloaded), requiring careful routing to avoid kinks or damage that could increase insertion loss. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F), and it is designed to operate in humidity levels between 40% and 70% (non-condensing). The 2mm cable outer diameter (OD) allows for dense cable management. The maximum insertion loss is rated at 0.3dB, and the return loss is 55dB, ensuring signal integrity for demanding applications.
