2M SC-FC OS1/OS2 Simplex Patch Lead

The 2 m SC-FC OS1/OS2 Simplex Patch Lead is a high-performance single-mode fibre optic cable designed for reliable connections in telecommunications and data networking environments. Featuring an SC connector on one end and an FC connector on the other, this patch lead provides secure, low-loss connectivity between fibre optic equipment, patch panels, and network devices.

Manufactured with 9/125 µm single-mode fibre and precision-polished ceramic ferrules, the cable delivers excellent signal integrity with low insertion loss and high return loss. The simplex design contains a single fibre strand, making it ideal for applications requiring one-way optical transmission.

With a durable LSZH or PVC jacket and a compact 2 mm outer diameter, this 2 m patch lead is flexible, easy to route, and suitable for structured cabling systems, telecommunications rooms, and data centre installations. Single-mode OS1/OS2 fibre is widely used for long-distance, high-bandwidth communication networks due to its low attenuation and high performance.
