15m OM2 Fibre Optic Cable SC-SC orange 50/125
A 15m duplex OM2 fibre patch lead with SC connectors at both ends. Duplex means two fibres, one to send and one to receive, so a single lead connects a pair of ports.
OM2 is 50/125 multimode fibre. It carries Gigabit Ethernet up to about 550m and 10 Gigabit up to about 82m, and is often used to match or extend existing OM2 cabling.
SC plugs are square push-pull connectors found on patch panels, media converters and many older switches.
A 15m lead covers longer runs, such as between rows in a data hall or up a riser to another floor. Plan the route and fix the cable so it is not pinched or kinked. Avoid bending it tighter than 60mm, as sharp bends weaken the signal and can damage the fibre. The LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket suits offices, data centres and public buildings.
