Improve the throughput capacity of CWDM applications across an OS2 fiber network

The LC to LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cable facilitates connectivity in 100G networks. It supports Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across an extended 1260-1625nm wavelength range, which improves channel isolation for optimal signal strength over long distances.

Compatibility

This 9/125µm single-mode fiber cable supports laser-optimized sources from 1260-1625nm and is ideal for critical connections between servers, switches, and data center equipment. It is backward compatible with OS1 networks, ensuring a reliable connection in legacy fiber environments.

Engineered for Optimal Performance

Precision-manufactured ceramic ferrules ensure exact fiber alignment for an insertion loss of less than 0.3 dB. The Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) polished LC to LC fiber ends greatly improve return loss characteristics over older PC polishing techniques. The bend-insensitive fiber core is surrounded by a layer of low refractive index material. This material reduces the amount of light that can escape the fiber cable by reflecting the light back into the fiber. The OS2 fiber patch cable is designed to provide low attenuation and performance that exceeds ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50 Type B1.3/B6.a1 industry standards.

LSZH Cable Jacket

Housed in a Low-Smoke, Zero-Halogen (LSZH) flame-retardant jacket, the OS2 fiber cable emits few fumes and toxic gases when exposed to extreme heat or in the event of a fire. This enables safer cable installations in areas with poor ventilation, including some industrial environments, self-contained environments such as trains and aircraft, as well as residential settings where building code compliance must be considered.

Each OS2 fiber cable is individually tested for insertion loss performance and includes a test report, to ensure 100% reliability and compatibility.
