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

The SC to SC duplex OS2 single-mode fiber patch cable facilitates connectivity in 40G/100G networks. It supports Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across a wide range of 1260-1625 nm wavelengths, improving channel isolation for optimal signal strength over long distances.

Compatibility

This 9/125µm single-mode fiber cable supports 1260-1625 nm laser-optimized sources 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.

Designed for Optimal Performance

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

LSZH Cable Jacket

Encased 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 settings, self-contained environments like 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% compatibility and reliability.
