Struggling with unreliable data links in your server room? The StarTech.com 6m (19.7ft) LC to LC (UPC) OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable delivers a high-performance, low-loss connection that keeps your 100 Gbps network stable and fast, perfect for demanding CWDM applications.
Key Features of a 6m Fiber Optic Cable
- Cable length: 6m. Provides ample reach for rack-to-rack or equipment-to-patch-panel connections.
- Connector type: LC/UPC single-mode - male on both ends, ensuring a secure, low-reflection link.
- Core diameter: 9 µm. Guarantees single-mode performance across the full wavelength range.
- Wavelength range: 1260-1625 nm. Supports CWDM for extended channel isolation and longer runs.
- Insertion loss: ≤0.3 dB. Means almost no signal loss, preserving bandwidth.
- Return loss: 55 dB. Reduces signal reflections for cleaner data transmission.
- Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH). Emits minimal toxic fumes, ideal for confined or safety-critical spaces.
- Bend radius: 10 mm. Allows tight routing without degrading performance.
- Compliance: Meets ITU-T G652.D/G657.A1 and IEC60703-2-50 standards, ensuring industry-grade reliability.
