Duplex SC-SC singlemode OS2 fiber-patchkabel ProXtend FO-SCSCOS2D-010 10 m

Duplex SC–SC Singlemode OS2 Fiber Patch Cable ProXtend FO-SCSCOS2D-010 10 m provides a two-fiber duplex connection with SC UPC connectors designed for singlemode (OS2) optical transmission. The 10 m cable features a flexible outer jacket and factory-terminated ends to ensure consistent low insertion loss and repeatable performance in long-distance links. This patch cable is intended for installations requiring singlemode fiber performance with reliable mechanical termination and straightforward plug-and-play use.

Advantages

The cable delivers low attenuation and stable singlemode transmission characteristics suitable for long-reach links. SC UPC connectors provide precise physical contact for reduced back reflection and improved signal integrity. The duplex configuration supports bidirectional or paired-channel connections in telecommunication and data network environments. A flexible jacket facilitates routing through cable trays and equipment racks while maintaining connector durability for repeated mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Telecommunication backbone and long-distance optical links
• Data centers and server room interconnects
• Optical network termination panels and patch panels
• Metro and campus network fiber runs
• Fiber test setups and equipment interconnects

Key specifications

• Fiber type: singlemode OS2
• Connector type: SC–SC duplex with UPC polish
• Length: 10 m
• Configuration: duplex, two fibers (pair)
• Jacket: flexible outer sheath suitable for routing in racks and conduits
• Typical performance: low insertion loss and low back reflection appropriate for long-distance singlemode links
• Operating environment: indoor network and rack-mounted installations

How to use

Route the duplex fiber patch cable between two SC-compatible ports, matching transmit and receive channels as required by the connected equipment. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent contamination-related loss; use appropriate fiber cleaning tools or wipes. Insert SC connectors until the latch engages and verify link status on the connected devices. When coiling excess cable, follow recommended bend radius practices for singlemode fiber to avoid microbending or increased attenuation.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force. Clean connector end-faces before each connection and use protective dust caps when connectors are not in use. For critical long-distance links, verify insertion loss and reflectance with appropriate test equipment after installation.
