InLine glasvezel-simplexkabel, FTTH, LC/APC8° naar SC/APC8° 9/125µm OS2 1m

Simplex fiber optic patch cable InLine LC/APC (8°) to SC/APC (8°), 9/125 µm OS2, 1 m is a single‑mode jumper designed for low‑loss, angled‑polish APC connections in indoor and equipment‑to‑equipment links. The cable uses 9/125 µm OS2 fiber and factory‑terminated LC(APC) male to SC(APC) male connectors with an 8° angled polish to maximise return loss and minimise reflections. With a 3.0 mm armoured outer diameter and halogen‑free white sheath, the cable is intended for FTTH, telecom and data centre patching where robust, compact fibre links are required.

Advantages

The armoured construction with a flexible metal spiral tube increases mechanical protection compared with thin provider‑supplied leads, reducing the risk of breakage during handling or routing. APC 8° polished connectors provide high return loss, and measured insertion loss values are typically below 0.20 dB with guaranteed IL < 0.30 dB and RL > 60 dB. The halogen‑free outer jacket and temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C make the cable suitable for a variety of indoor environments while the neutral white sheath allows unobtrusive installation in living areas.

Suitable for

• Fiber to the home (FTTH) customer premises wiring
• Equipment‑to‑equipment connections in data centres and telecom racks
• Single‑mode point‑to‑point links requiring low return loss
• Indoor installations where a discreet white cable is preferred

How to use

Use this InLine LC/APC to SC/APC simplex cable to connect a fibre modem, ONT or active equipment to patch panels or transceivers with matching APC connectors. Ensure both ends are clean before mating: inspect and, if necessary, clean ferrules with a fibre cleaning tool or lint‑free wipe and isopropyl alcohol. Insert the LC connector into the LC port and the SC connector into the SC port until a secure click or mechanical stop is felt. Avoid tight bends; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and do not exceed tensile stress rating when routing the cable.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable in a clean environment, protect connector endfaces with dust caps when not in use, and use the included test report values as reference for link qualification. For permanent installations in living areas, route the cable along skirting or behind furniture to minimise mechanical stress and visibility.
