Patch Cord LC-LC Single Mode DX 25M

The Netsys NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-25M is an enterprise-grade Single-mode (OS2) Duplex Fiber Optic Patch Cord designed for high-performance, long-distance data transmission. At 25 meters (approx. 82 feet), this cable provides the necessary reach for complex backbone connections across large data centers or corporate facilities.

Key Features

• OS2 Single-mode Fiber: Features a precision 9/125µm core optimized for 1310nm and 1550nm wavelengths. It offers virtually unlimited bandwidth and much lower signal attenuation than multimode fiber, making it the standard for long-haul and high-speed backbone links.

• LC-to-LC Duplex Connectors: Equipped with Small Form Factor (SFF) LC connectors to maximize port density on high-end switches and routers. The duplex “zipcord” design supports simultaneous bi-directional (TX/RX) data flow.

• Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) Polish: Both blue LC connectors feature a UPC finish, ensuring low insertion loss (≤ 0.3dB) and a high return loss (≥ 50dB), which is critical for maintaining signal stability over 25 meters.

• Extended 25.0m Reach: This length is ideal for “Inter-Room” or “End-of-Row” patching, allowing for a continuous, high-quality fiber run through overhead trays or floor conduits without the need for additional couplers.

• Safety & Identification: Wrapped in a standard yellow jacket for instant identification as Single-mode fiber. The jacket is typically constructed with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) materials for enhanced safety in enclosed spaces.

Best Use Case

The NS-LCUPC-LCUPC-DX-SM-25M is the preferred choice for high-speed telecommunications and campus backbones. It is commonly used to link core routers to distribution panels located in different parts of a building or to connect high-performance transceivers (like 100G-LR4) that require reliable signal integrity over significant distances.
