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

The SC to SC OS2 Singlemode Simplex Fiber Optic Patch Cable facilitates connectivity in 40G/100G networks. It supports Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) across an extended wavelength range of 1260-1625 nm, improving channel isolation for optimal signal strength over long distances.

Compatibility

Connect to single-fiber networking devices, including simplex patch panels, SFP transceivers, and fiber NICs. This 9/125µm OS2 simplex singlemode fiber patch cable is 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 greatly 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 the 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 toxic fumes and smoke 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% compatibility and reliability.
