StarTech.com 1m LC to LC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Simplex Fiber Optic Cable - 40G/100G Compatible, Low Loss, LSZH Jacket

StarTech.com 1m (3.3ft) LC to LC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Simplex Fiber Optic Cable, 9/125, 40G/100G, Low Insertion Loss, LSZH Jumper Cord

The StarTech.com SPSMLCLCOS21M is a high-performance fiber optic patch cable designed for demanding high-speed network environments. This 3.3-foot (1-meter) simplex OS2 single-mode fiber cable features LC to LC (UPC) connectors, supporting data transfer rates up to 100 Gbps. It is engineered to facilitate seamless connectivity in 40G and 100G networks, ensuring reliable, low-latency data transmission across long distances. The cable's design incorporates a bend-insensitive fiber core housed within an Aramid-reinforced jacket, allowing for tight bends with a minimum radius of just 10mm, ideal for space-constrained installations and complex fiber layouts. The precision-formed ceramic ferrules and UPC polishing significantly reduce insertion loss, with values below 0.3dB, and enhance return loss characteristics, ensuring optimal signal integrity. Designed to meet industry standards such as ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50, this cable guarantees high performance and durability. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket adds an extra layer of safety by emitting minimal smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire, making it suitable for installations in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas like industrial sites, transportation vehicles, and residential buildings. Each cable undergoes individual testing for insertion loss, with test reports included to verify performance. This fiber optic patch cord supports bi-directional transmission over a single fiber, reducing cable clutter and simplifying network design. Its compatibility extends to older OS1 networks, ensuring versatile use in legacy systems. Designed for use with SFP transceivers, simplex patch panels, fiber NICs, and other single-fiber networking devices, this cable provides a reliable backbone for high-speed data transfer. With a lifetime warranty, the StarTech.com fiber optic cable offers peace of mind alongside professional-grade quality and safety features. Whether deploying new fiber infrastructure or upgrading existing systems, this cable provides the high-performance, safety, and reliability required for modern high-bandwidth networks.
