Cabo de rede BlueOptics duplex de fibra ótica LC-APC/SC-UPC OS2 5 m azul

The BlueOptics Duplex LWL Patch Cable LC-APC/SC-UPC OS2 5m Blue is a singlemode fiber optic patch cable designed for point-to-point connections in telecommunication and data networks. It uses LC-APC to SC-UPC connectors and OS2 singlemode fiber (E9/125µm, G.657.A1) with a 5 meter length. The cable features a low insertion loss of under 0.2 dB, ceramic ferrules and a 2.0 mm buffered tube for mechanical stability. The outer jacket is LSZH to limit smoke and toxic emissions in confined spaces. A measurement protocol is included to verify attenuation and connector performance.

Advantages

This fiber patch cable combines OS2 singlemode performance with APC/UPC connector end-face geometries to ensure low back reflection and low insertion loss. The ceramic ferrules and high-quality brand fiber support repeatable connections and long-term reliability. The LSZH jacket provides safer use in enclosed or public buildings where reduced smoke and halogen-free characteristics are required. The included measurement protocol documents test values for attenuation and continuity.

Suitable for

• Singlemode point-to-point links in data centers and server rooms
• Telecommunication backbone and access network connections
• FTTx drop cables where LC-APC to SC-UPC interfaces are needed
• Indoor installations requiring LSZH jacket for safety

• Length: 5 meters
• Insertion loss: < 0.2 dB (typical)
• Ferrule material: ceramic
• Buffer/tube diameter: 2.0 mm
• Outer jacket: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Included: measurement protocol documenting test results

How to use

Inspect connectors before installation and keep protective caps on until ready to connect to avoid contamination. Insert the LC-APC connector into the corresponding LC port and the SC-UPC connector into the SC port ensuring correct orientation and secure seating. Avoid tight bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified for singlemode fiber to prevent increased attenuation. Route the cable along cable management paths and secure it with appropriate ties or clips without compressing the jacket or buffer tube.

Recommendations

For best performance, clean connector end-faces with approved fiber cleaning tools before mating and validate link loss with a power meter or OTDR using the supplied measurement protocol. Maintain bend radii above manufacturer recommendations and avoid mechanical stress at connector junctions. Use LSZH cabling in enclosed public spaces or where building regulations require low-smoke materials.
