Glasvezelkabel Helos LC/LC Duplex OS2 – 10 m, LSZH, kleur: geel (115734)

The Helos LC OS2 10m fibre optic cable is a single-mode patch cable designed for high-speed, long-distance data transmission. Measuring 10 meters in length and terminated with LC connectors on both ends, this cable uses a 9 µm core diameter single-mode fibre (OS2) and supports full duplex links. It is intended for connecting network equipment in data centres, telecom racks and other structured cabling environments where low attenuation and reliable optical performance are required.

Advantages

The single-mode OS2 construction offers low signal attenuation and stable performance over longer distances compared to multimode alternatives. LC connectors provide a compact form factor suitable for high-density patch panels and transceiver modules. Full duplex support allows simultaneous bidirectional communication on paired fibres. The 10 m length provides flexibility for equipment placement without additional splicing or intermediate patching.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, routers and optical transceivers in data centres
• Patching between telecom racks and distribution frames
• Connecting servers and storage systems to optical network ports
• Laboratory or testbench setups requiring single-mode links

Key specifications

• Fibre type: Single-mode OS2
• Core diameter: 9 µm
• Connector type: LC to LC
• Polarity: Full duplex (duplex patch cable)
• Length: 10 metres
• Typical use: Patch cable for optical networking and interconnects

How to use

Verify that connected equipment uses compatible LC ports and single-mode transceivers where required. Handle the cable by the connectors and avoid excessive bending near the fibre to prevent increased attenuation or breakage. Insert LC connectors into the matching ports until they latch; ensure proper polarity when connecting duplex pairs. If necessary, clean connector end faces with appropriate optical cleaning tools before insertion to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

Store the cable coiled without sharp bends and avoid tight loops below the manufacturer's minimum bend radius. Use dust caps on unused connectors, and perform periodic inspections and cleaning of connector end faces to ensure consistent optical performance in critical network installations.
