Patch Cord LC-LC Single Mode DX 15M

The Netsys NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-15M is a high-performance Single-mode (OS2) Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cord engineered for long-distance data transmission and high-speed network backbones. At 15 meters (approx. 49 feet), this cable is designed to bridge the gap between non-adjacent server racks, different floors, or separate telecommunications rooms.

Key Features

• OS2 Single-mode Fiber: Features a 9/125µm core, which allows for a single path of light. This design minimizes signal attenuation and supports significantly longer distances (up to 10km and beyond) compared to multimode fiber.

• LC-to-LC Duplex Connectors: Utilizes standard Small Form Factor (SFF) LC connectors. The duplex configuration enables simultaneous two-way data transmission, making it ideal for high-density switches and patch panels.

• Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) Polish: The blue LC connectors are finished with a UPC polish, ensuring low insertion loss (≤ 0.3dB) and a high return loss (≥ 50dB), which is critical for maintaining signal integrity in single-mode systems.

• 15.0m Extended Reach: This length is perfect for structured cabling projects where equipment is located across a data center, providing a continuous, reliable link without the need for intermediate connections.

• Industry-Standard Identification: Features the standard yellow jacket for OS2 fiber, allowing for instant visual identification to prevent cross-connection with multimode infrastructure.

Best Use Case

The NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-15M is the preferred choice for Enterprise and ISP backbones. It is commonly used to connect core routers to fiber distribution frames, link campus buildings, or connect high-speed transceivers (like 10G/40G/100G LR4) where distance and signal stability are paramount.
