Description

Black Box FOSM-005M-SCSC OS2 Singlemode Fiber Optic Patch Cable

Overview

The Black Box FOSM-005M-SCSC is a 5-meter OS2 singlemode fiber optic patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in network infrastructure. It features SC connectors on both ends, terminating in a black housing, and is built to support high-bandwidth, long-distance applications common in surveillance and enterprise networks. This cable ensures a clean signal path, minimizing loss and interference for critical data links.

Compatibility

This FOSM-005M-SCSC cable is compatible with any network device, switch, or transceiver utilizing SC singlemode fiber optic ports. It is suitable for use with 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 40 Gigabit Ethernet, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet transceivers, as well as standard singlemode fiber optic network equipment. Its OS2 rating ensures performance for distances up to 10km for 10Gbps or 5km for 1Gbps applications.

Installation Notes

When installing, ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation. Avoid sharp bends exceeding the minimum bend radius (typically 30mm for OS2 fiber) to maintain signal integrity. The 5-meter length provides flexibility for connecting equipment within a rack or between adjacent racks.
