Patch Cord LC-LC Single Mode DX 20M

The Netsys NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-20M is a professional-grade Single-mode (OS2) Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cord designed for long-reach, high-stability data transmission. At 20 meters (approx. 66 feet), this cable is engineered to connect critical networking hardware across large facilities, between separate server rooms, or across different floors of a building.

Key Features

• OS2 Single-mode Fiber: Features a precision 9/125µm core, optimized for the 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. This allows for nearly unlimited bandwidth and long-distance capabilities far exceeding those of multimode fiber.¹

   

• LC-to-LC Duplex Connectors: Utilizes Small Form Factor (SFF) LC connectors on both ends. This design is perfect for high-density environments where rack space is limited, while the duplex configuration supports simultaneous bi-directional data flow.

• Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) Polish: Both connectors feature a blue UPC finish, ensuring an exceptionally low insertion loss (≤ 0.3dB) and a high return loss (≥ 50dB) for maximum signal integrity over the 20-meter run.

• Significant 20.0m Reach: This length is ideal for “Inter-Room” connectivity, providing a continuous fiber link that eliminates the need for intermediate patch points which can introduce signal attenuation.

• Durable Yellow Jacket: Wrapped in the industry-standard yellow jacket for OS2 fiber, allowing for immediate visual identification and reducing the risk of accidental cross-connection with multimode systems.²

Best Use Case

The NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-20M is specifically designed for enterprise-level backbone extensions. It is the go-to solution for connecting core switches to remote distribution frames or linking high-speed transceivers (like 10G-LR or 100G-LR4) that require a stable, long-distance connection within a campus or large data center.
