Description
Single Mode Duplex Fiber Jumper
SC-LC UPC OS2 is a 3 m duplex patch cord that links SC/UPC and LC/UPC ports on single mode equipment. It uses 9/125 µm OS2 fiber and polished ceramic ferrules for low-loss mating.
The cord carries two fibers in a zip duplex construction. LC/UPC and SC/UPC connectors use 1.25 mm and 2.5 mm ferrules respectively. Insertion loss stays at or below 0.3 dB, and return loss reaches 55 dB or better on both ends.
A yellow LSZH jacket marks the cable as single mode and limits smoke output in enclosed rooms. The 2.0 mm cable bends to a 10 mm radius without cracking the fiber. It operates from -20 to 70°C across campus, office, and data centre links.
Key Features
OS2 Single Mode Fiber
9/125 µm core and cladding support 1260–1625 nm wavelengths for long-reach links.Duplex LC to SC Termination
- LC/UPC connector with 1.25 mm ceramic ferrule
- SC/UPC connector with 2.5 mm ceramic ferrule
- UPC polish keeps return loss at 55 dB or higher
Low Insertion Loss
Each mated pair measures at or below 0.3 dB under IEC 61300-3-4.Bend-Insensitive Cable
The 2.0 mm cord tolerates a 10 mm bend radius in tight patch panels.LSZH Jacket
Low-smoke zero-halogen compound suits enclosed risers and equipment rooms.Polarity and Labelling
A/B polarity is fixed at manufacture, and each end carries a connector label.Standard Compliance
The assembly follows TIA-568.3-D, IEC 61300-3-4, and IEC 61300-3-6 test methods.

Why Choose This Patch Cord
OS2 glass carries 10G, 40G, and 100G signals over long single mode runs.
UPC ferrules hold 55 dB return loss, which keeps reflectance low on laser sources.
The duplex zip cord keeps transmit and receive paths paired at both ends.
A 10 mm bend radius allows routing behind dense patch panels and cable managers.
LSZH jacket material reduces toxic smoke during a fire event.
Yellow sheath colour gives technicians an instant single mode identification.
George Odhiambo (verified owner) –
Clean termination, no issues on the link.
Mercy Wangari (verified owner) –
Short run works fine. Loss values matched the sheet.
Vincent Karanja (verified owner) –
Came fine, linked the SC panel to the switch.
