Corning LC-LC OS2 Singlemode 9/125µm LSZH 2.0mm Fiber Optic Patch Cord
The Corning Basic 2.0 mm Single-Mode Duplex Fiber Patch Cord is a reliable fiber-optic patch cable designed for high-performance single-mode connectivity in data centers, LANs, in-building networks, central offices and Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) installations.
It uses Corning SMF-28® Ultra bend-improved single-mode OS2 fiber in a 2-fiber duplex configuration. The cable is terminated with LC UPC Duplex connectors on both ends, making it suitable for direct connections between network equipment, patch panels, transceivers and other fiber-optic infrastructure equipped with LC interfaces.
The compact 2.0 mm zipcord construction provides convenient cable routing and management, while the yellow LSZH/FRNC outer jacket is suitable for indoor installations requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cable construction.
