This cable features a durable yellow LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket, making it suitable for installations in confined or hazardous environments such as industrial facilities, transportation, and residential areas where fire safety standards are critical. The LSZH material emits minimal smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire, ensuring safer operation and compliance with safety regulations. Built with precision-engineered components, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 100 Gbps, making it ideal for modern storage solutions, high-performance computing, and data center applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe cable’s fiber core measures 9\/125 micrometers, with a bend-insensitive design that maintains signal integrity even when routed through tight spaces. The fiber features Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) support across a broad wavelength range of 1260-1625nm, allowing multiple channels over a single fiber for efficient bandwidth utilization. The connectors are made with ceramic ferrules for precise fiber alignment, resulting in insertion loss below 0.3dB and improved return loss thanks to Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polishing. These features ensure minimal signal degradation over long distances, exceeding industry standards such as ITU-T G652.D\/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50 type B1.3\/B6.a1. The simplex design with a male LC connector on one end and a male SC connector on the other facilitates easy integration with network devices like patch panels, SFP transceivers, and fiber NICs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach fiber optic cable is individually tested for insertion loss performance and comes with a detailed test report, guaranteeing compatibility and reliable performance. The passive, high-quality design ensures consistent, low-maintenance operation, supporting network device compatibility and high data transfer rates. Whether upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying new fiber networks, this StarTech.com fiber patch cable provides the durability, performance, and safety needed for critical data transmission and network reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSupports data transfer rates up to 100 Gbps for high-bandwidth network applications\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed with a durable LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket for safety in confined or hazardous environments\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBend-insensitive fiber core maintains signal integrity in tight routing scenarios\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePrecision ceramic ferrules and UPC polishing for low insertion loss below 0.3dB and high return loss\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSupports CWDM wavelengths across 1260-1625nm for efficient channel multiplexing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with single-fiber network devices including patch panels, SFP transceivers, and NICs\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIndividual testing with performance reports ensures guaranteed reliability and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned for long-distance, high-performance data transmission in data centers, enterprise networks, and industrial settings\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"StarTech.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45875476791467,"sku":"SPSMLCSC-OS2-5M","price":17.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/0575\/3259\/files\/1082498853_c4b41280-4b85-4bab-9fda-3b52aa30f345.jpg?v=1763856714","url":"https:\/\/www.natix.com\/products\/startech-com-5m-16-4ft-lc-to-sc-os2-single-mode-fiber-optic-patch-cable-40g-100g-low-loss-lszh-jacket","provider":"Natix","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
