Description

StarTech SPSMLCLC-OS2-5M LC/LC Single Mode Fiber Cable

Overview

This StarTech SPSMLCLC-OS2-5M is a 5-meter, OS2 single-mode fiber optic patch cable designed to reliably connect network devices over longer distances or in environments requiring high bandwidth. It features LC/LC UPC connectors on both ends, making it suitable for high-speed data transmission in enterprise networks, data centers, and surveillance systems where signal integrity is paramount. The 9/125 micron fiber core supports up to 100Gbps data rates, ensuring minimal bottlenecks for demanding applications.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring standard LC/LC UPC fiber optic ports, including switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and media converters. It is suitable for use with various fiber optic transceivers (SFPs, SFP+, QSFP+) that support OS2 single-mode fiber. Specific compatibility extends to network infrastructure from brands like Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and any other vendor utilizing LC connectors for single-mode fiber links.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 2mm outer diameter (OD) jacket made from LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) material, which is crucial for installations in public spaces or plenum-rated areas where fire safety is a concern. The minimum bend radius is 10mm (loaded/unloaded), allowing for installation in tight spaces without compromising signal integrity. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 60°C, providing flexibility for various deployment environments. The low insertion loss of 0.3dB and high return loss of 55dB ensure a clean signal path.
