14M SC-LC SM OS1/OS2 Duplex Patch Lead

The 14 m SC–LC SM OS1/OS2 Duplex Patch Lead is a high-performance single-mode fibre optic cable designed for reliable, high-speed optical connections in telecommunications and data networks. It features an SC connector on one end and an LC connector on the other, allowing flexible connectivity between fibre patch panels, optical distribution frames, switches and other network equipment.

Constructed with 9/125 µm OS1/OS2 single-mode fibre, this duplex patch lead supports long-distance data transmission with minimal signal loss and excellent bandwidth performance. The duplex design contains two fibres, enabling simultaneous transmit and receive signals, making it ideal for bidirectional fibre communication.

The cable is protected by a durable outer jacket and fitted with precision ceramic ferrules to ensure accurate fibre alignment and consistent optical performance. Each patch lead is factory tested to verify insertion loss and reliability, making it suitable for demanding network environments.
