OS2 single-mode fibre patch cord

The Cables To Go 12505 is a duplex single-mode fibre optic cable with SC connectors on both ends. It uses 9/125 micron fibre in a yellow PVC jacket and measures 9.8 ft (3 m) long. The patch cord is intended for gigabit Ethernet links that require long-distance transmission.

Tested insertion loss under continuous traffic

Every unit is 100 % optically inspected and tested for insertion loss before shipping. Typical connector loss is 0.30 dB with a maximum of 0.50 dB, and typical return loss reaches -55 dB. These figures represent steady-state performance rather than a brief benchmark.

Pull-proof jacket and immune to electrical

The patented injection-moulded connectors measure 10.6 mm by 26 mm by 58 mm with the duplex clip installed, giving greater durability against pulls, strains and impacts during installation. The PVC buffer surrounds the fibre, providing a cost-effective path that is immune to electrical interference.

Questions about this item

Does the 9.8 ft single-mode cable generate any heat or noise when installed in a rack that runs continuously?

The cable is a passive optical link with no active components, so it produces no heat and makes no sound during all-day operation.

What equipment must already have SC ports for this patch cord to connect directly?

Both ends terminate in SC male connectors, so the linked devices — such as switches, transceivers or patch panels — must provide matching SC female ports.

Will the 9/125 OS2 cable work alongside existing OM1 multimode jumpers in the same patch panel?

The cable uses 9/125 single-mode fiber, which is a different core size from OM1 multimode; they can share a panel but cannot be interconnected without a media converter.
