Cabo patch ShiverPeaks LC/LC duplex 9/125µm OS1/OS2 0,5 m

Duplex fiber optic patch cable ShiverPeaks LC/LC duplex 9/125µm OS1/OS2 0.5 m is a short singlemode interconnect designed for reliable bidirectional transmission between network equipment. It features LC to LC duplex terminations on a 9/125µm singlemode fiber, optimized for OS1/OS2 applications where compact connectors and minimal insertion loss are required. The 0.5 m length makes this cable suitable for patch panels, server racks and direct equipment-to-equipment links inside telco, data center and enterprise premises.

Advantages

The ShiverPeaks LC/LC duplex cable offers compact LC terminations for high-density installations and consistent singlemode performance across OS1/OS2 rated fiber. Its short length reduces excess fiber management and potential signal attenuation in confined rack environments. The cable is color-coded for easy identification and supports bidirectional singlemode connections with low insertion loss and stable optical characteristics.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects between switches, transceivers and patch panels
• Data center rack and cabinet fiber patching
• Enterprise backbone links inside buildings
• Telecommunication equipment connections and lab test setups

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC to LC duplex
• Fiber type: singlemode 9/125 µm
• Attenuation class: OS1/OS2 singlemode
• Length: 0.5 m
• Cable color: yellow (singlemode standard)
• Polarity: duplex A-B (paired)

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each LC connector with the corresponding adapter or transceiver port and pressing until it clicks into place. Ensure connectors and adapters are clean before mating to maintain low insertion loss. Route the cable along proper cable management paths in racks or panels to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress. For disconnection, depress the LC latch and gently withdraw the connector to prevent damage to the ferrule.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean LC connector endfaces using appropriate fiber cleaning tools before each connection. Maintain bend radii above the manufacturer's minimum and avoid sharp kinks. Use this 0.5 m patch cable for short internal links; for longer runs select appropriate lengths and fiber class to meet system loss budgets.
