CONNECTOR TYPE: LC/UPC (LUCENT CONNECTOR/ULTRA PHYSICAL CONTACT): The LC connector is known for its compact size and easy handling, making it suitable for high-density environments. The UPC type connector has specific type of polish applied to the ferrule end face and is designed to achieve a higher level of optical performance by minimizing back reflection (also known as return loss) and insertion loss. This makes UPC connectors suitable for applications where low signal loss and reliable performance are critical.
FIBER TYPE: SINGLE MODE (OS2): OS2 (Optical Single Mode 2) fiber is designed for long-distance transmissions, offering a small core size (typically 9 microns) for higher bandwidth and extended transmission distances.
FIBER SPECIFICATION: G657A2: G657A2 is a type of bend-insensitive single-mode fiber. It is designed to resist signal loss when the fiber is bent, making it suitable for applications where tight bends may be encountered.
DUPLEX CONFIGURATION: The cable has two fibers arranged in a duplex configuration, allowing for separate channels for transmitting and receiving data.
JACKET MATERIAL: LSZH (LOW SMOKE ZERO HALOGEN): LSZH jacket material minimizes the release of toxic and corrosive gases in the event of a fire, making it a safer option for indoor installations.
JACKET SIZE: 1.6MM: The 1.6mm jacket size indicates the outer diameter of the cable. A smaller jacket size is advantageous for applications where space is limited, and flexibility is a priority.
BEND INSENSITIVE FIBER: G657A2 fiber is designed to be more resistant to bending and flexing, reducing the risk of signal loss when the cable is subjected to tight bends.
LOW INSERTION LOSS: LC connectors typically provide low insertion loss when properly terminated, ensuring efficient signal transmission with minimal attenuation. HIGH RETURN LOSS: LC connectors also offer high return loss, contributing to maintaining signal integrity by minimizing reflected light.
DURABLE AND RELIABLE: Fiber optic cables are generally durable and not susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring reliable performance in various environmental conditions.
COMPATIBILITY: LC connectors are widely used and compatible with various networking equipment, ensuring seamless integration into different network setups.
