Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes a 9/125 µm core/cladding specification, optimized for single-mode transmission with minimal signal loss over extended distances. The OS2 fiber category confirms its suitability for outdoor and long-haul applications, supporting wavelengths commonly used in telecommunications and high-speed data networks.
The LC connectors offer a small form factor that saves space in high-density patch panels, while the male gender ensures compatibility with standard LC female ports on switches, transceivers, and media converters. The cable's simplex design means it carries a single fiber strand, ideal for bidirectional communication setups when paired appropriately.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Fiber Optic Mode, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This cable incorporates multiple durability features that extend its service life in demanding environments. The patented injection molding process creates connectors that resist pulling, impact, flexing, strain, and crushing forces, maintaining optical performance even with frequent handling.
Enhanced Durability
The pull-proof jacket design and molded connectors provide exceptional physical protection, reducing the risk of damage during installation and maintenance cycles.
- Pull resistant connectors
- Impact resistant construction
- Crush resistant design
Quality Assurance
Each cable undergoes optical inspection and insertion loss testing to ensure it meets performance specifications before leaving the factory.
- Optically inspected
- Tested for insertion loss
- Manufacturer verified
Deployment / Use Cases
This LC-LC single-mode fiber patch cable is ideal for connecting network equipment in environments where reliable, high-speed data transmission is essential. Its 9.8ft length provides flexibility for rack-to-rack connections within data centers or between adjacent equipment in server rooms.
Common applications include linking fiber optic transceivers in network switches, connecting media converters for copper-to-fiber transitions, and establishing backbone links between networking cabinets. The yellow jacket offers easy visual identification in complex cable management systems, while the OS2 rating makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use when properly protected.

FAQ
What type of fiber optic cable is the C2G 37105?
The C2G 37105 is a single-mode fiber optic patch cable with OS2 rating and 9/125 µm core/cladding specification. It features LC male connectors on both ends and has a 9.8ft (3m) length with a yellow PVC jacket. This simplex cable is designed for high-speed data transmission in network environments.
What are the connector types on this fiber optic cable?
Both ends of the cable feature LC Network male connectors. This means each end has a single LC male connector, making it suitable for connecting to standard LC female ports on network equipment such as switches, transceivers, and media converters.
What is the difference between single-mode and multimode fiber?
Single-mode fiber, like this OS2 cable, has a smaller core (9µm) that allows only one mode of light to propagate, enabling longer transmission distances with less signal loss. Multimode fiber has a larger core that supports multiple light modes but over shorter distances. This single-mode cable is ideal for long-haul applications and backbone connections.
What does the OS2 fiber category mean?
OS2 is a specification for single-mode fiber optic cables designed for outdoor and long-distance applications. OS2 cables have lower attenuation and are optimized for use with wavelengths between 1310nm and 1550nm. This rating ensures the cable meets industry standards for performance in extended fiber runs, including between buildings or across campuses.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor installation?
While the OS2 fiber category is designed for outdoor applications, this particular cable has a standard PVC jacket. For direct outdoor exposure, additional protection such as conduit or outdoor-rated jacketing would be recommended. The cable is RoHS compliant and environmentally friendly, but consult installation guidelines for specific outdoor deployment requirements.
What warranty comes with this fiber optic cable?
The C2G 37105 fiber optic cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, providing long-term assurance of quality and reliability for your network infrastructure investments.
