Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic patch cable utilizes single-mode fiber with a core/cladding specification of 9/125 µm, optimized for long-distance transmission with minimal signal attenuation. The OS2 fiber category indicates compliance with industry standards for outdoor and loose-tube applications, though it is also effective in indoor riser environments when paired with the appropriate jacket.
The cable is terminated with LC connectors on both ends, each featuring a male gender design. The duplex configuration provides separate fibers for transmit and receive functions, supporting full-duplex communication. No shielding is required due to the inherent immunity of fiber optics to electromagnetic interference, ensuring data integrity in electrically noisy environments.
Key Product Advantages
The AddOn fiber patch cable offers several advantages for network deployments, combining robust construction with performance-focused features. Its long reach and single-mode design make it ideal for extending network segments without signal degradation, while the riser-rated jacket adds a layer of safety and compliance for vertical installations.
Enhanced Connectivity
LC connectors provide a small form factor and secure latch mechanism, reducing space requirements and ensuring stable connections in high-density patching environments.
- Low insertion loss
- High return loss
- Compatible with SFP/SFP+ transceivers
Durability and Safety
The stranded cable design improves flexibility and resistance to bending fatigue, while the OFNR riser-rated jacket meets fire safety standards for use in building risers and plenums.
- Flexible stranded construction
- Fire-resistant jacket
- Lifetime warranty
Deployment / Use Cases
This LC to LC fiber patch cable is versatile for various networking scenarios, particularly where long-distance, high-bandwidth connections are required. Its single-mode fiber and OS2 rating support applications demanding low latency and high data integrity over extended runs.
Common use cases include connecting switches to routers in data centers, linking network equipment across floors in office buildings, and interfacing with transceivers in telecommunications setups. The yellow color aids in quick identification and cable management, streamlining installation and maintenance processes in complex network infrastructures.
Data Center Interconnects
Use for backbone connections between racks or across data hall aisles, leveraging the 175-meter length to span large facilities without intermediate equipment.
Enterprise Network Extensions
Ideal for extending network segments in corporate environments, such as connecting server rooms to remote workstations or linking branch offices via fiber uplinks.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the length of this AddOn fiber patch cable?
The AddOn ADD-LC-LC-175M9SMF fiber patch cable has a total length of 175 meters, which is equivalent to 574.1 feet. This extended reach makes it suitable for long-distance network connections in data centers, enterprise environments, or between buildings, reducing the need for additional splicing or intermediate equipment.
What type of connectors are used on this cable?
This cable features LC connectors on both ends, with a male gender design. Each end includes two LC connectors in a duplex configuration, providing separate fibers for transmit and receive signals. The LC connector's small form factor and secure latch mechanism ensure reliable connections in high-density patching applications.
Is this cable single-mode or multimode?
This is a single-mode fiber optic cable, designed for long-distance transmission with minimal signal loss. Single-mode fiber uses a smaller core (9/125 µm) to carry light directly down the fiber, making it ideal for applications requiring high bandwidth over extended distances, such as backbone networks or telecommunications links.
What does the OS2 fiber category mean?
OS2 refers to the fiber category, indicating that this cable meets specifications for single-mode optical fiber used in outdoor and loose-tube applications. OS2 fibers are optimized for low attenuation and high performance over long distances, supporting data rates suitable for modern high-speed networks without degradation.
What is the jacket rating, and why is it important?
The jacket is rated as OFNR (Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Riser), which means it is riser-rated for fire safety. This rating allows the cable to be installed in vertical riser applications within buildings, such as between floors, as it meets specific flame spread and smoke generation standards. The yellow color aids in identification and compliance tracking.
Does this cable come with a warranty?
Yes, the AddOn ADD-LC-LC-175M9SMF fiber patch cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship, providing assurance of long-term reliability and performance. It reflects the manufacturer's confidence in the cable's durability and suitability for demanding network environments.
