ENET Solutions STLC-SM-8M-ENC Single-Mode Fiber Patch Cable

Overview

The ENET Solutions STLC-SM-8M-ENC is an 8-meter, duplex, single-mode fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in surveillance and network infrastructure. This cable features an ST connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, facilitating connections between different types of fiber optic equipment. Its yellow jacket indicates single-mode OS2 fiber, suitable for longer transmission distances and higher bandwidth requirements compared to multimode fiber. This cable is critical for establishing stable network backbone links between switches, NVRs, or other network devices where signal integrity over distance is paramount.

Compatibility

This ST to LC duplex single-mode cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring ST and LC fiber optic ports. It is specifically designed to interface with ENET Solutions' range of network switches and media converters, as well as third-party devices requiring an ST (input) to LC (output) fiber connection. Ensure your network devices have compatible ST and LC fiber ports for seamless integration.

Installation Notes

Handle fiber optic cables with care to avoid kinks or sharp bends, which can degrade signal performance. The minimum bend radius for OS2 single-mode fiber is typically 5 cm (2 inches). Ensure connectors are clean before insertion into ports. The ST connector is a bayonet-style connector, while the LC connector is a small form-factor push-pull connector.
