Cabo de fibra ótica simplex InLine, FTTH, LC/APC8° para LC/APC8° 9/125µm OS2 3m

Fiber optic simplex cable InLine LC/APC to LC/APC OS2 9/125µm 3m is a single‑fiber patch cable designed for FTTH and singlemode links. The cable uses OS2 singlemode fibre with 9/125 µm core/cladding and LC/APC 8° polished connectors on both ends, offering low insertion loss and high return loss for subscriber terminations, optical patching and backbone connections. The cable comes in a white, jacketed 3 m length with an armoured 3.0 mm outer diameter and a stainless steel spiral tube reinforcement for improved mechanical stability and longevity.

Advantages

The armored construction with a stainless steel spiral tube and a 3.0 mm halogen‑free outer jacket provides increased tensile strength and protection against mechanical damage compared with thin pre‑installed cables. LC/APC 8° polished connectors deliver low insertion loss (typical <0.20 dB) and high return loss (>60 dB), which supports stable singlemode signal transmission. The neutral white sheath allows discreet installation in living areas and the cable is supplied with a factory test report and conformity to relevant IEC standards.

Suitable for

• FTTH subscriber connections between the living‑unit outlet and an optical modem
• Optical patching panels and distribution frames in singlemode networks
• Short backbone or equipment interconnects where low loss and APC polish are required
• Replacement of low‑quality pre‑installed thin fibres in apartments and homes

How to use

Route the 3 m cable between the optical outlet or patch panel and the singlemode modem or device, taking care to avoid sharp bends and compressive loads on the cable. Insert the LC/APC connectors into compatible LC/APC ports until they click, ensuring the 8° APC ferrule is correctly aligned. Do not remove the protective dust caps from connectors until immediately before insertion. After installation, verify optical continuity and loss using appropriate test equipment or the supplied test report.

Recommendations

Avoid bending the cable below the manufacturer's minimum bend radius, protect connector endfaces from dust and contamination, and secure the cable to prevent strain on connector interfaces. For FTTH installations, prefer the 3.0 mm armoured version over thin 1.6 mm pre‑installed fibre to reduce the risk of damage during handling and everyday use.
