METZ CONNECT OpDAT Patch cord in fibra ottica monomodale SC-S/LC-S APC OS2, Bianco, 0,5 m

Fiber optic connections often suffer from signal loss and reflection at connector interfaces, especially in high-speed single-mode networks. This METZ CONNECT OpDAT patch cable solves that problem with precision APC (Angled Physical Contact) polished connectors on both ends, ensuring minimal insertion loss and excellent return loss for stable, high-performance optical links.

Who is it for

Network engineers and data center technicians who need reliable, low-loss single-mode connections between SC and LC interfaces. Ideal for FTTH, telecom, and enterprise backbone applications where OS2 fiber and APC polish are required.

Main features

• SC/APC to LC/APC simplex single-mode OS2 fiber patch cable
• 0.5 m length, ideal for short interconnects in patch panels and equipment
