Black Box 5 m single-mode patch cable

This Black Box FOSM-005M-SCLC cable provides a 5-metre OS2 9/125 single-mode link with SC to LC connectors. It is built for general-purpose networking and tested to meet TIA/EIA standards. The yellow 2.0-mm duplex zipcord jacket is OFNR-rated for riser installation.

SC to LC connectors for single-mode transceivers

The cable terminates in one SC connector and one LC connector, matching transceivers that use those interfaces. It supports Gigabit and 10 Gb Ethernet over single-mode fibre. Every unit is 100 percent tested during production to verify performance.

5-metre reach for rack-to-rack links

At five metres the cable comfortably spans adjacent racks or patch panels within a cabinet. Longer runs between floors or buildings will need a longer assembly. The OFNR jacket allows vertical riser routing where plenum rating is not required.

Questions about this item

What does the 9/125 single-mode rating mean once the cable is installed?

The 9/125 rating indicates a 9-micron core with 125-micron cladding, designed for single-mode transceivers that carry high-bandwidth Gigabit and 10 Gb signals over long distances.

What interface standard do the SC and LC connectors follow, and what does it cap in practice?

The SC and LC connectors follow TIA/EIA industry standards for single-mode fibre, capping performance at the transceiver's rated speed such as Gigabit or 10 Gb Ethernet.

What physical space and mounting does the 2.0-mm duplex zipcord with OFNR jacket need?

The 2.0-mm duplex zipcord fits standard patch panels and equipment ports, while the OFNR PVC jacket is rated for riser installation between floors.
