Fiberkabel Helos 1 m OS2 LC/SC

The Helos 1m OS2 LC/SC fibre optic cable provides a single-mode connection designed for high-speed data transmission over long distances. With a 9 µm core diameter and OS2 graded glass, the cable supports full duplex communication through LC and SC terminations, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment and telecommunications hardware. The 1 metre length suits point-to-point links inside racks, patch panels and distribution frames where low-loss single-mode performance is required.

Advantages

This fibre optic cable delivers low attenuation and stable signal transmission thanks to its OS2 single-mode glass. The combination of LC and SC connectors allows easy integration between devices that use different interface types without adapters. Its 9 µm core supports standardized single-mode operation, while the 1 m length reduces excess slack in dense cabling environments. The cable construction provides mechanical durability and consistent connector performance for repeated mating cycles.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, routers and optical transceivers in data centres
• Telecommunications equipment racks and distribution frames
• Fiber-to-the-desk or fiber-to-the-server short runs within network cabinets
• Connecting equipment with LC interfaces to devices with SC ports

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode OS2
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Length: 1 m
• Connector A: LC
• Connector B: SC
• Polarity: full duplex (duplex cable)
• Typical insertion loss: characteristic of OS2 single-mode assemblies (low attenuation)

How to use

Install the cable by connecting the LC end to the LC-compatible transceiver or patch panel port and the SC end to the SC-compatible equipment port. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to avoid signal loss; use appropriate fibre cleaning tools if necessary. Route the cable avoiding tight bends and excessive pulling; maintain bend radius recommendations for single-mode fibre. For rack or cabinet installations, secure the cable to cable management fixtures to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fibre optic cable in a clean environment, protect connector end-faces with dust caps when not in use, and perform visual inspection and cleaning before mating. For optimal performance in long-term installations, follow manufacturer guidelines on bend radius, connector handling and periodic inspection.
