StarTech Single Mode OS2 LC-SC Duplex Fibre Patch Lead 50m

The StarTech Single Mode OS2 LC-SC Duplex Fibre Patch Lead 50m provides a 50 m single-mode fibre connection between equipment with differing LC and SC connector interfaces.

Overview

Constructed with OS2 grade single-mode fibre and a 9/125 µm core/cladding diameter, this patch lead is designed for low signal attenuation over extended runs. Its 50 metre length makes it suitable for connecting equipment across racks, rooms, or buildings. The duplex (twin-fibre) design supports bidirectional communication, which is standard for modern fibre optic links.

Key Features

• Mixed Connector Design: Integrates between LC and SC port types, removing the need for adapters.
• OS2 Single-Mode Fibre: Designed for long-distance transmission, suitable for 10GbE and 40GbE applications.
• UPC Polish: Ultra Physical Contact polished connectors with low insertion loss and back reflection.
• LSOH Jacket: Low Smoke Zero Halogen outer jacket that minimises the emission of toxic smoke and corrosive gases in the event of a fire.
• 50 Metre Length: Provides reach for connecting equipment across racks, rooms, or buildings.

Applications

Suitable for data centre and telecom installations, backbone connections, campus networks, and other long-haul applications. The LSOH jacket is particularly relevant for enclosed or public spaces where smoke and toxic gas emissions are a safety consideration.
